HondaSXS,
I know for me, it's just the time of year. I'm using my sleds on the snow - not as much opportunity to use the Pioneer (other than plowing) this time of year. We're in the middle of Winter and it's been a colder than usual Winter in most parts of the country.
I know one of the areas I spend time on is researching accessories and future add-on's for my Pioneer. With the aftermarket playing catch-up to the Pioneer sales, it would be nice to list and continuously update new aftermarket items available for the Pioneer. As you've already done with some of the aftermarket manufacturers i.e., winch mounts, lights and shocks, I would encourage other aftermarket manufacturers to use this site to introduce their products for the Pioneer (have a dedicated aftermarket section). One of the big advantages to owners of the other UTV's makes is having a plethora of aftermarket options and upgrades available to them; having many aftermarket choices and variation of upgrades keeps the costs down, while increasing options for owners. The key is not letting the site become too commercial, while also encouraging member posted information. Member supplied information and exchange of information is most valuable and should the main focus of the forum.
Other thoughts / ideas:
* Member spotlights (a short monthly bio on a member and their experiences with the Pioneer)
* Machine of the Month ( a members machine is highlighted with pictures and descriptions of the upgrades on the machine)
* Encouragement and support for creation of regional Pioneer HondaSXS owners clubs and group riding events across the country and outside the country)
* Drawings and contests for members that contribute information
Overall, the HondaSXS.com site is a great forum for Honda owners; you've done a great job - nearing 500 members! As the Winter gives way to Spring and more opportunities to ride, I'm confident the site will see increased activity in the warmer months ahead. Congratulations and thanks again for a great site.
