    From your image of a cold climate, this is probably this is old news for you, but:
    AWD, Snow tires will aid in your 'line of work', if by that you mean commuting around on un-plowed roads rural New York.

     

    I've added a 2" hitch to mine. Specifically, it's for a bike rack, but It's nice to be pulled/pull others out of snowbanks by a real hard-point on the frame as opposed to the little tow-hook. It 'Won't' tow over the 2500 lbs limit, but who will stop you! (That's joke, because if you tow overweight, and the brakes fail, Who will stop you?)


    Looks like you have an emergency light bar on the roof? depending on what your occupation is, maybe additional light strobes on the rear near the license plate/ under the grille in the front would both look cool and provide additional safety.

     

    thanks for your input! the light bar is Bue strobe for volunteer fire service. I will be having add ons done to the light package with multiple strobes installed in numerous locations of the vehicle. I have a 2" hitch being installed next week so I can go pick up a pop up camper (1400 lbs) I bought for our family camping trips this summer. also adding a roof top cargo rack with fishing rod mounts for gear of many kinds for work, fire and life in general. may also be doing a wheel swap out to 18 inch TUFF wheels and BF Goodrich all terrain tires. we'll see what works out in the near future.

  2. Hello y'all!  New here to this forum but excited for the interaction and input from everyone. I have owned my Journey for a couple months now and would like to see if some of the ideas I have for it are feasible. Yes, I fully understand that it is not a four wheel drive (suv/truck) and I don't plan on treating as such. I would however like to make it a bit more user friendly for some of the situations I get into with my line of work, public service and private life. Glad to be here and thanks in advance for any positive input.
