Welcome to the group Dirtguy, glad to have you here. What tires did you go with and how do you like them?

I went with System 3 XTR370 tires. Mounted them on the factory wheels so they are tucked in the fender wells. I had to trim a small bit of plastic in the upper front area but it was very small. So far, so good. I have not had the machine on the trail yet, still trying to deal with alignment issues with my headache rack and winch. Hopefully, will have the rig ready to be at the ranch for the opening weekend of deer season. Can't wait to put her to the test.

Hello all…East Texas guy here. Picked up my new XD Crew a couple weeks ago. We love to ride the back roads with our family and friends. I’ve already installed new Rigid rock lights, Rigid front spot, Rigid reverse lights and upgraded my blue interior floor lights. I just ordered the WD Electronics blinker/horn kit and hope to put some bigger tires on it soon. I just want to say that the hour or so I’ve spent on this site has been a worth of knowledge and new ideas.
Thanks!

Welcome to the group Hittman, glad to have you here! Dido on oneal's comments, Rigids are pricey but top notch. Lights is one place I have gotten cheap on my last 2 Rangers and have not regrated it. There are so many low dollar options on Amazon now that work really, really, well. I'm also sure there is some shit out there but I've been super happy with my last few choices.

New from Muscatine, Iowa. My wife and I are trying to decide between a 3 seat and a crew. Had 2014 900 crew and liked it but rarely used the back seat for much. Took a few people with us on rides but it was too loud to have a conversation, especially between the front and rear seats. Leaning toward the crew with the hope we can have conversations while riding without the need for headsets. We've looked at new ones but have not test driven any yet.

Just found this Forum and it is the most helpful and friendliest site I've seen.

LOBRI - I live south of Mt. Pleasant and used to go to Muscatine often. I worked for Hearth N Home Technologies a HON Company and spent a lot of time in their facilities. You absolutely must test drive the 1500 XD in Comfort mode. You will be so impressed with the smoothness and how quiet it is. 2 door or 4 door is up to you, personally I'm a 2-door guy. Good luck in your search and Welcome to the group!!

Thanks Big Red. Funny, we just found out about Hearth and Home Technologies. Our current house in Muscatine has a fireplace that needed work. When I took it apart I found the tag indicating the brand and that it was a HON company. Enjoy your posts and responses to others posts.

Hello all, glad to join a nice XD 1500 forum.
My wife and I own and run a dog boarding kennel here in Missouri. Have owned a few 1000 Rangers in the past and have been very happy with the new XD 1500 so for. Can't wait to try it out on blading some snow this winter. I am using the Glasure poly blade off of my 1000. Had to mod the blade tilt back block due to the height difference of the 1500. Anyway happy to be a new member here and hopefully learn some cool things over time.
