    Hey Ryan, how would you say the light cannons differ from the lightforces? Do you get more reach, better on off performance, better spread from a spot beam, better color? The cannons need to really be much better since they are more than double the price of two LF 170's :eek:

    I dont know....perhaps. I just want a couple parts off the new series to put on mine. :D

    Well I wish I had a comparison shot with the LF VS LC but sadly I dont. One of the main things I really like on the switch between the two is the difference in ON/OFF The Canons are instant on and off. Where the lightforces did have a small warm up and cool down. I also like the lower draw of the LED power needs. I am currently running two Canons with clear filters so they are a spot light. The light reach is for sure better than the Lightforce which I was running two clear lens with one light setup for spot and the other as flood. The light temperature also is nicer to me with the Canons, they just seem to light stuff up nicer. I will be adding a third Canon to the front soon which I am pretty excited about.
    As for the price of the two sets of lights. The LF strikers here sold with wiring harness are priced around 400-450$
    The two light canons from Vision X are 500$ and come with a wiring harness. Not sure though what the price is on retail shelf here I am pretty sure just around the 500$ range so as for pricing I would just say spend the extra couple dollars and get a better quality light.

    You really can't question what you are getting when you purchase Vision X they are tried and true.

    Thanks for all the info Ryan. You must have had the HID lightforces? I can get two LF 170 plain halogens with harness for 260... Decisions decisions! Thanks again man.

    Just calling now to see what the current price is on 170 strikers no HID on phone as I type.
    Striker 170's - $358.69 and apparently now sold with the harness. I have not seen ANY LF kits that include the harness so no idea here.
    This was at JB's Power Center Calgary AB

    Now on phone with Custom Truck Parts Calgary AB
    Striker 170's - $364.49
    Wiring Harness - $63.79

    Thanks for the clip Jamie! We should probably add some beats to it....thinking this?

    Thanks:D
    That is the TRD Borla Exhaust. Has a little change in sound since we cut the exhaust back and dumped it over the rear axle. Also welded the Borla tip back on. I still like the sound though!

    Had a hell of a good day out for a Rip with Spoonman and Mrbeggins on monday. It seems as though it was a 35' MTR Kevlar kinda day. Big time FTW on the Kevlars. Serious work was done with Daisy Trail breaking in some really deep snow. A good handful of recoveries were successfully taken care of and very quick safe practice put into place.
    Enjoy the pictures.

    Are those surveying cuts you guys are driving on?? I was up in northern Alberta once and they had cuts like that--it was surveying or oil companies or something--these loooong, straight cuts trough nothing but timber. Awesome.
