I went for a bit of a walk up Wairere Falls on Saturday 🥾.
I thought it would be fun to piece together a video of 3 Things your GWM Dealer won’t tell you about your GWM Cannon.

Yes I’ve been shopping on AliExpress again 😲
Yeah yeah … I know .. I seem to be obsessed with truck mods.
Neville and Paula visited yesterday, and Paula asked “Is there anything left for you to do on your truck?”.
Well yes Paula, yes there is … decals on my tailgate 😛.

A little while ago I thought it would be great to install a Light Bar.
Unfortunately, that meant there were consequences for my roof racks, and top basket.
I started with a cheap black roof basket from TradeMe , but I soon decided I wanted a custom roof basket / roof tray made from alloy.

So, one day while I was meandering around on the internets, specifically the Facebook Group GWM Cannon Owners of New Zealand, somebody mentioned they’d like extra reversing lights.
This idea stuck in my mind for a while, until I decided, bugger it, let’s install more lights 💡
And while I was shopping, I accidentally came home with some Bullbars 🚘, and some decals 🌈.

It’s important not to steal your daughters joy of announcing her first child.
So, I’ve been quiet for a couple of months.
But now, I’m a Poppa 🥰🥰

So after a few trips away, and not being able to lock things in the back, and having committed to a light bar on my roof racks (which means I can’t carry my snow board 😒), I finally caved to installing a hard lid.
I mean, I always wanted one, I just didn’t want to pay Ute Master prices.
So, I designed and built my own hard lid.

A trip to bush in the new GWM Cannon showed up some need for better lighting 💡.
I arrived in the bush with Matt at a bit passed midnight; Matt had bought a spotlight with him, but I wanted something more permanent.
So a trip to Super Cheap Auto , and I’m undertaking a new project!
Let’s install a light bar on the GWM Cannon.

The all new GWM Cannon ( Poer / Pao / P-Series / Ute ) has a terrible sound system. I mean, I guess if you’re buying a truck, good sounds aren’t the most important thing?!?
But it is important to me! Y’know … doof doof!

The all new GWM Cannon ( Poer / Pao / P-Series ) gets a 4x4 work out this weekend.
So much fun, and a little challenging for my first time out in the truck.

Time for a big long walk in the bush. There’s been lots of things on my mind recently (I crashed my car 😢, I’m out of work again 😢), plus I needed some time out of the hustle and the bustle.
So I planned a trip out in the bush; the Waitawheta track again !
