I was thinking it would be cool for everyone to post a picture of their rig when they bought it and another more recent picture to show how far it has come. Maybe have a mod list too. After all, isn’t that a lot of what YotaTech is all about? I will start:

Actually, I haven't taken it out much last year, but it's been moved in and out of the driveway quite a bit. I have a few spots marked, so when I back it into the driveway, it goes back in the same spot.
