Took the Pioneer 1000 5 for a ride down the gravel road like I've always done with all of my past utv's. It's the first time to try it out with my top and 2 piece windshield. I've never seen so much dust rolling in the cab!. I was going about 20mph and I brought it down to 10 or so and still a lot of dust just rolling in over the seats. It was like the wind was blowing it the rear but I was going into the wind so it should have been carrying the dust behind me. If I had passengers in the rear seats, they would have been covered in dust like I was. I forgot to mention, the windshield was open as far as it would go. This all happened in about 2 minutes on roads that just had snow and ice on them a few days ago.I can only imagine how bad this would be in the spring and summer. I'm guessing that most people that bought their Pioneer in the last couple of months that have the same full top and 2 piece windshield as I do, have been riding in mostly damp conditions because it's winter. The only reason I have the top is because of the hot summer sun. This is not a problem with just the Pioneer, all utv's with a top and windshield have this problem. I didn't think it would be this bad.I now need to come up with a plan B. I wish now I had made a video of the dust rolling in, it was really bad. Just letting everyone know this. As soon as I got home I removed the top and windshield and rear roll cage which also meant I had to remove my lights on the top front and rear that I spent hours mounting and wiring. The plus to all of this is now the pioneer is quiet like the day I got it. I'll come up with something to block the sun. I just wish I had thought about this before spent the money on the top and windshield. Not trying to sound so negative, It's the way it is. Just be prepared to get covered in dust if you ride in these conditions.
