no winch or other accessories

Skip the base for sure.
Grab a deluxe, offer the dealer the 14" pretty rims for 12" steel wheels off a base in trade for a roof.
I know everyone says they run light bars etc. But if you are in the middle of a pack, your lights will piss off the people running infront of you. The deluxe headlights are much better than base halogen bulbs.
I agree you will probably end up adding on rear door panels so you can do the storage mod, Deluxe already has em.

Well, Abernathy sold their last 2018 LE so all I have left to choose from are red or yellow deluxe. CRAP

You really don't need a-arm guards.
We have a discount code for Trail Armor as well.

Divine intervention?
Personally, I think yellow attracts flys and gnats. And dumbasses with Tweety Bird stickers on their car.

Chattanooga has LE's for $300 more. Their deluxe models again only in BigBird Yellow or Communist Red are $500 more than Abernathy's.

Ive got good a-arm guards I can give you if you really want, the factory ones are thin anyways same with skid. The way to go is arched a-arms especially in the front.

I've stated my opinion on here before about what i would buy were i to get a P1K.

My thoughts on the matter:

The base model has 12 inch wheels, which severely limits your tire choice. But the first thing anyone buys anymore is a set of wheels, and I would want a headlock regardless so this isnt. A factor for me.

The body panels on the side are just going to get scratched and tore to hell so why not just have bare doors? If you wanted a different color later you could convert the doors to Deluxe covered doors like Honda use to offer my drilling and using mudclipa to affix the panels.

LED headlights can be added later for $400, but everybody and their mother has a light bar or several on their utv. So again not a big one for me.

I-4wd, I think it's a neat feature, but I cant see getting an LE just for that feature.

The front bumper can be purchased separately, but there's better options. Just let the stock one beat some crap up first then pick up a different one. The aluminum skid plates are a no go for me, gonna get beat to hell and never fit right again. Plastic full coverage (trail armor, etc) would be my choice.

If the LE came with a factory roof and winch, which I would trade for the dumb bumper and skid plates then I'd jump for it. But as it sits, no way. The best part of it is the lighted dash switches.

There are better options then the Fox shocks, they are worlds better than a base/deluxe but still ain't Elkas or W.E.

Just sold more Russian junk for an additional $7,500. In three days by selling part of the collection, I was able to raise nearly enough to buy the LE.

@Plumber32 did mention the the LE axels are different than the Deluxe and base

How many LE broken axles have you heard of? Maybe the axles are different other than just the length.
