Skip,
I do not know exactly what my dealer did to make it run faster, but he said he got about 5-6 additional mph from the tire/wheel switch and about 5 from "other things." I can attest the machine feels much more punchy than the stock gas (or diesel) that I drove when they first arrived. It accelerates quickly and seems to really move. I also like the way it has enough power to maintain speed up long pulls. The machine has a 2" lift front and rear and does have the hydraulic lift. If you look really carefully you can see the switch to the left of the steering wheel. The stereo is detachable and it and the speakers are outdoor use, so water and weather will not bother them, but I am still keeping it inside except when using. The skid plates are custom fabricated for the machine to provide extended underbody protection. They were the one item that held us up because they were not just right the first time, and my friend is very picky about things. The winch is detachable and can be moved front-rear. I plan to get a snow blade next fall for the winter, and I bet it will plow fine. I also think it probably will go off road OK with the extra ground clearance, real four wheel drive, suspension travel and those tires. Looking forward to getting it dirty around the house. Only thing left is the light bar which is coming. The Gator is already wired up for it.

man that thing is nice . so what was the total price for it all??you gotta give us some mud pictures .lol
I have not a new XUV coming this week. I'm not plannng on changing the tires but I would like to get a little more speed. Can you check with your dealer and see what they did to get that little extra push? The radio also interests me. Is that a regular car radio? I know you said it had exterior speakers, where are they mounted?

they had one at the dealer by my house and the guy had the floorboards and the underbody sprayed along with the engine cradle too.it looked really nice.if your gonna go with a bed linner it's best to go with a sprayon or roll on and forget them cheap plastic drop in liners all they do is rub the paint off and cause rust spots.
so what does the skid plate that comes with the xuv look like? cause that one looks like it covers everything really good.
