I'm always in the mountains and have found the paddle shifters to be the best feature of the deluxe. I love being able to pick my gear on the fly, no need to even put it in MT mode, just leave it in AT and you can still change the gears.
With the use of the patle shifters do you find it to have plenty power for mounten climbing? Some of the guys that don't have the option have problems with it staying in 2nd guire and short on power to top the hill.

Haven't had a problem yet, in fact every time I read another post about the lack of power and inability to make it up hills I find myself scratching my head.

Me too.. I've gone up some "scary" steep hills and I get to the top and I'm thinking " what are they talking about, lack of power"...Power is not a problem...If you want something that goes 60 mph, then you have a problem, but hill climb power is no problem.

Yea, but it's bad to look at the ground beside your S x S on a hill climb and see an ant out running you up the hill! HA! Come on give me poop about the tight woods! Just giving you silly crap about yall's P5's! I really like the P5's!:p
