P500 Advice on new p500

[Danmarze]

Hey guys,
I have been researching a lot and wanted to ask for your input.
Have found a 2018 new for 8,100 otd and a 2019 for 8400 otd. That’s taxes included. The prices were 7,300 and 7,600. I ride trails with my kids 8/13 and they are on rancher and recon. Was debating another atv but p500 seems like it would serve camping purpose better. From what I have read, prices seem good. So is a 19 worth
300 extra.

Pretty sure the only difference between the 2018 and 2019 are color choices. Pick the color you like and purchase. I think I paid $8100 for my 2018 in camo back in December.

Agreed. They are practically the same so get whichever color you like best. It'd be worth $300 to be happy with the color choice if that is the direction you go.

Thanks for the input. The 2019 is white, which I like. The 2018 is green. Which is ok

These little machines last a LONG time so you'll be looking at it for a while.

I sure hope so! My rancher is a 2002 and runs like new! Gotta start looking for roof and box ideas now

I'm sure you've see the fairly extensive post about rear rack and box ideas. It's a great resource.

For the difference in price you could purchase whatever color plastic you want besides camo.

What difference in sales price you find will be small compared to the how much you will spend on mods after. Prefer the Honda because it better to spend money on mods than maintenance. Good luck.

My main reason was reliability,
Taking to kids out, way out! I like to know that my ride is dependable

Very wise choice, and it will be easy for them to learn how to drive when the time comes.

Which one did you get, white or green? Good deal with the roof, a must have IMO. Might want to check out HondaPartsKing for pricing when you look at other OEM accessories. Got a full hardcoat windshield there below local dealer cost. Thanks for your FF duty,

Thanks! I got the green 2018, figured the kids would ruin the white
