P500 Getting The Itch

[William]

What made you decide against a new P500?

I already have a 2015 model p500. A 4 seater would be great bc my whole family could ride.

I am starting to really want a new p500 in the sexy green color... the auto feature is very appealing. I don't mind less ground clearance if the ride is better. I can't justify in any way buying another sxs. Someone talk me out of it!!! I know @rocmar can... LOL!!!

Okay, I assumed you were thinking of trading the '15 for a '17 pioneer 500.

No I gave it to my son for when he's old enough. He's 19 months now, but loves the p500!

HAHA do it....

Wow, generous gift. I assume you outgrew the abilities of the P500? Seems like that's the only reason others replace it with a different machine. I myself am really considering one. Or a Yamaha Wolverine, but I'd rather stay with Honda and don't care much for the P700-2.

I don't think you can outgrow it. I really just want a 4 seater or a wider sxs so me my wife and twins can ride together more comfortably. I really don't have a "complaint" per say with the 500, it just would be nice to have longer suspension, a locker, and auto. But I knew what I was buying when I bought it. I love it. Let some air out of the tires and the ride is fine. I have never been stuck where a locker would have helped. And it's fun shifting. It's the rare times where auto mode would be handy. And wolverines are awesome...

Why not the 1000?

I don't quite trust it yet. I have not researched it in a while so the new clutch fix from the factory might solve the problems people have been having. And PRICE....

There are far more out there without any issues.. mine shifts like a champ!

More than I want to spend, and would like to see if any updates arise in the future.

I realized you weren't asking me and deleted it. Lol. I'm glad you responded though. Good to know the majority are not having problems. Heck I still wouldn't rule out buying a Polaris bc I know tons of people that have no problems. But the 4 seater popos are too dang long. Still the p1000 is too expensive. BUT if the riding area rumored close to me reopens I could justify it.

Lol.. no worries. Hey, I get it.. I'll have more In the 1000-5 than my Jeep Rubicon. But it's pretty b****'n! My thing is this.. if you only need a two seater there are other options.. but honestly if you need more than a bench seat can accommodate the Honda 1000-5 is the best option out there. I gave 15,600 with a roof for the 1000-5 deluxe and figure I'll have 1500-2000 more by the time I'm finished accesorizing. This isn't a cheap activity but it will beat sitting at kids ball games and running them everywhere!
