I can’t complain about my 700-4, it’s a great machine. It went everywhere I wanted to go at RRB and never failed to get me back to camp. I like the thought of the 1000-5 but I can’t even consider $10,500 for mine the way it sits. I’d probably let it go for $12,500 set up like it is, not sure I’d go much lower. Good luck with the 500, mine was a tank!

Yeah...I'm pretty well versed in the 700 experience. Put almost 9000 miles on my 2014 before I had to sell it. Was very disappointed initially, as several members here will confirm ( ). But with that kind if milage with virtually nothing gone wrong...that's something I can appreciate. I'd would be content with another 700 if that's how it goes...
But the 500 ain't gone yet. Today's ride will give me the truth about the oil thing. Wife has been trying to get me to go get a 700, but I want to see what's really going on with the 500.

Plus...I truly dread the new purchase buying experience. If I could get somebody else to go do it...

I'm contemplating it myself. If the 500 has truly started to use oil as it seems, then it will almost certainly end up being traded. If you're a ugly chick, then you better be able to cook and f*** well. If you're a rough riding, cramped sxs, then you better be durable to a fault.

The dealer where I bought my 700 is blowing 700-4 seaters out for under $10,000. The local RideNow has a couple of 1000-5's in the $12 range. Honestly, I'll probably look into the 1000, but I just don't want that payment. Probably end up with another 700.

Buy the 1000 it's so much better on the trails than the 700. And a lot quieter.

That’s true, only costs a few extra greenbacks!

I’m sure it is but I hate to just throw away $4300, those accessories aren’t a year old yet. I get it, that’s my loss but not sure I’m willing to bite the bullet yet. With a full cabin renovation, wanting to build a shed and working on the adoption process, 4K is too much to throw away. If not for that I’d go get it today.

Strip the old one and put as many accessories on the new one as possible

Well I can save the frame cargo bag, winch, lights and mirrors. Too bad everything wouldn’t fit lol.

@Mudwing will buy the wheels/tires and skid plate. That will re-coupe some cash and putting stock back on shouldnt hurt resale.

There, I spent @Mudwing’s money and getting you to spend more on the P1K5.

I am great at spending other peoples money

Lmao, you’re alright lol. The tires and skid were broke in at the Takeover if it makes them more valuable, if not, they never left the garage lol.

Finished work, cut grass and this cheerleader beer is on time. Now back to the mission at hand

I’d love to have those skids. I just planted the money tree, should be bearing fruit around September. If’n I do pick them up, how much shipped? Oh and I want them signed.

How much oil does it hold and how often Is it changed? Subtranny? Air filter? Oil filters?

Seems like it's more than just the initial purchase price...

I used mine just like that to start my mower today.

 

[CumminsPusher]

I hope they worked good enough for the mower lol. We’ve had good luck with cheapies except for the cable ends, they didn’t take the abuse
