Hi there. Just joined the forum after a few days of lurking. Nice place.
I am female so please be gentle if I ask something that is stupid. I am no where near up to specs on most of this stuff. Most of the time it will be me here since I am the forum junkie but hubby might show up from time to time.
Hubby and I have pretty much decided on a new P700-2 Deluxe. Not sure about color but leaning strongly towards Camo. Unsure about accessories at this time due to the fact that stepping up to the Deluxe is going to be enough of a strain on the budget. Other than the poly hard coat full windshield we are going to wait and see what we need or want as time goes by. Ideas welcomed.
Use will be mainly on the farm with an occasional field trip. We aren't youngsters and going super fast or wild and crazy isn't out cup of tea. I got a chance to test drive a P700-2 and a P1000-4 the other day and I think the 700 is more than enough for our needs. I did discover that the 1000 didn't like going slow but I was wanting to go slow and it's just not a good fit for me and my short legs. Gave myself a serious case of whiplash on the 1000. Sure hope no one saw me. It wasn't pretty.
I wouldn't be opposed to a used P700 but they are scarce as hens teeth around here and they hold their value so much that I pretty much decided might as well go for new...besides I do admit that I like the upgraded features on the Deluxe. While I don't just HAVE to have power steering...it's kinda nice.
Plus I appreciate looks as much as the next person. I am already feeling the lure of bigger wheels and something called beadlock rings because they look cool.
So for now my main question is where can we go for short field trips in the SW Missouri area?
I know about Rush Springs down around Pineville and I discovered that Chadwick doesn't allow my size vehicle. Pineville is actually closer anyway. So you guys/gals in my neck of the woods...where you do ride around here? Long trips to ride aren't really a viable option for various reasons at this time.
