NickX's X Build

NickX

Bought an X
I've finally put together my long-overdue build thread. I've owned my X for about a year now, but was waiting for warmer weather and my tax return to get it more off-road ready. She spends most days battling traffic and low-clearance parking garages in and around Washington, DC, but feels most at home on the trails. There's still much work to be done, but I'm happy with my progress so far, and can say with confidence that this is the best vehicle I've ever owned, and I don't plan on getting rid of it any time soon! -NickX
