Not a bad looking truck. Looks like a little rust around the wheel well in the front, and by your gas cap, and keep an eye on the cab corners.

Yeah its not really rust yet its mainly paint chipping so im going to get on fixing it early before it gets really bad!! Underneath of this thing is prob one of the cleanest trucks ive seen for being a northern truck.

I thought you said you bought a truck.lol j/k.
Only issue is that sticker/decal in the back window.

Sounds like decent deal. Any noticable leaks with 150,00 on it??

Hey! There's nothing wrong that that Yamaha sticker!
Nice vehicle you have there. Like mentioned above, watch for rust starting at the cab corners.

I picked up this vehicle on Monday, wanted something a little bigger than my Jeep to haul the sleds with.
2003 GMC Yukon XL


Now I just have to figure out where to put my Sirius radio without having gobs of wires showing. Anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?

Nice truck^^ Yeah im deff getting a polaris sticker to replace that! Nah we own a couple repair shops in our area my dad went through this thing inside and out like i said its super clean underneath no oil anywhere. The guy was original owner of this truck and has been a customer to our shop for the past few years so we kinda knew this truck already and knew what kind of deal it was!

Nice. I think the worst part of having straight pipes is when you back up to the snowbank and they fill with snow. It happens with the gibson tips I have on mine

yea put it where ever you want on the upper windshield like beside the rearview mirror, then its easy to hide the wire along the upper head liner all the way to the pillar, then go down the pillar to the dash and hide it under the steering wheel right about your legs(there is more than likely already some wires under there so just zip tie them together), then right to your stereo.\




nice truck by the way.

I can get more pictures asap. I am not sure what mufflers are on there. In a few weeks I am going to put the cherry bomb extreme on so it will hopefully have more rumble. Right now you can hear it from 0mph to about 50mph then after that not much. When I tow stuff it is a lot louder. I will try to get video of it as well.

Another bad thing about pipes straight out the back is when you are hooking up a bumper pull trailer... and you have exhaust blowing in your face... It tends to be a nuisance... I'd 45 them out the sides.
