runs like a scalded dog, the way a have it figured on the distance i am traveling and the time its taking me. It's running about 23/24 mph with three people, a dog, and a full hunting load with my shaggy blind on the boat. I don't have any way to measure the speed. I am going to try to find someone with a handheld GPS or get an app for my android, not sure if there is one out there that will give me mph off my phone GPS. but once i get it figured out i will post it up on here.

download "gps tracker lite" from the android market. It runs off google maps. You can create routes, mark waypoints, all sorts of stuff. And of course, find the all important mph! And its free...

Nice rig. I got 2 questions. Has it even been in the mud as it is clean enough to eat off of. The other question is what is this I circled in red. I cna't figure it out yet.

Those gauges working alright for you with all the vibration, I am probably going to go with oil filled gauges to help out with the vibration
