New Alaskan Havoc!

Bigdaddy7 · Jun 30, 2023

Finally arrived this week! Took it for a late night drive to work the break in period (photo about 11:30pm, love Alaskan summers!) dog is happy too.

Had it shipped from Tacoma. I was super paranoid about theft after all the post on the forum. When i finally picked up from the port in Anchorage I asked where the second set of keys were. You guessed it, they were in the cupholder of the unlocked truck that had been sitting in the most crime ridden area of the city for two days

Warm clothes and a snow machine and you’re in business. Winter is just as fun as summer in Alaska if you have the right gear to wear and toys to play with.

Looks like you stopped right on the Seward to take that pic.

I agree! I enjoy the winters as well. So much to do its just as busy as summer.

Next up a 6 disc cd changer and some hub caps!

I ordered the plate HELLCT, we’ll see if they approve it.

I'm sure but the constant darkness would depress me. I'm a sun worshiper! LOL

It’s not that bad, especially down in Anchorage. There is not 24 hours of constant black night. The sun is fully above the horizon for about four hours on the shortest winter days and close enough to the horizon for a couple hours before and after that it’s kind of an extended dawn/dusk type feeling.

The summer can be worse with the daylight never really ending. You find yourself just staying out working around the yard or hanging out with friends drinking beer and not realizing that it’s 1am already and you need to be at work in the morning.

You deal with it by drinking more, it an amazing time of year. And then in the summer you still drink but leave the bar at 03 and put your sunglasses on.

Funny! Probably was me. I know Lithia sold two Havocs a few months ago (well over MSRP) but i havent ever seem them driving around.

For those Alaskans on here, is there anywhere good to off road with a TRX? I thought about Eureka area because not many trees, but curious if anyone else has a spot.
