Mount Desert Island, Maine. Not as overland cool as other posts, but Acadia NP is pretty awesome in its own right. Plus a bonus dog pic.

After 7 years or so stuck in the shed, my LX build made it out and went on a road trip last week.

Plenty of mods (custom ARB bull bar, Zeon 12k winch, snorkel, long range tank, LT295/70R18 Nittos on 18x9 ROH rims, later model front brake upgrade, OE rear diff lock and Eaton front with 4.3’s, Slee sliders, Kaymar rear bar, exhaust, AHC delete, etc). Still not complete, suspension change coming, TVS2650 s/c waiting in box to be installed.

A comfy tourer, albeit needing a bit more torque.

Supercharger will help with the torque. I found it to be a game changer on my 2020 LX. Highly recommend reaching out to OTT for a tune as well.

I hope so, I’m in Australia so will use Harrop or one of their agents.
You will have the 8 speed auto, but how does your cruise control operate post tune? I ask as I find the cruise programming extremely frustrating and aggressive now, with the extra power I’m thinking it might get worse?

My SC is Harrop as well. I can’t really speak to the cruise control as I don’t use that feature often. I would say that overall my fuel economy has improved slightly since installing the supercharger.
 
Boring picture, but I just got my new-to-me 2019 home. Drove it home 8 hours from Nebraska. Very pleased. Used the time to figure out what many of the buttons do...

Not that mpg is a priority for a vehicle such as this (duh), but I got 19.5 mpg on the trip. Pretty good for a tank like this.

Congrats! A beauty. Put some good wheels and tires on her.

Not a huge fan of the wheels, but I will say they look better in person than in pictures. So we'll see how they grow on me, or not. Maybe I'll make a change when new tires are needed.

Definitely like them better than the 21s. Thought about grabbing a set and powder coating them black.

Yeah, low(er) profile tires are silly on a vehicle like this.
 
I actually like the looks of those wheels, but I do like a little more rubber sidewall, which is why I swapped for the LC 18" wheels.
Might do that eventually, but there is no hurry to decide.

I did notice the speedo is about 2 mph high at 70, so I wouldn't mind getting slightly larger tires to compensate, around 2.8% bigger would do it.
 
Yep, this is what I did. I'm running 275/70r18 and I'm at about that 2 mph increase over what is shown on the speedometer.
I run the same size tire. I've been very happy with it.
