Been looking at buying a SxS for the last year. A few weeks go went to look at the new 2017 700-4's almost bought a 2016 last fall but had some thing come up and couldn't.
Got to the dealer and they had sold the last one they had that morning. Really thought the 700-4 was what I wanted since the 2017 had the paddle shifters and power steering. Looked around some at some other models. They had a new 2017 P5 LE but I just couldn't justify the cost. Then I saw the Silver 2016 Deluxe and that was it.
Went and tried out a 2017 Teryx 4 seater. Nice seats, noisy as .... and there was no storage room in the back. Is wanted extra seating to take grandkids riding but 80% of the time it's just me the wife and my dog.
Went back and bought the one I think I always knew I wanted. Wife told me I might as well get the one wanted because I wouldn't be happy with any thing else. These Hondas are just more versatile than any thing else out there. Love the turf mode. I've had it three weeks and I've used it more around the yard than I ever thought I would. Doesn't tear any thing up.
Found this forum a week or so before. Added the roof and split window from the dealer. Already done some easy/cheap mods on it that I found on here. Ordered the heat shield and vent line kit off of eBay from bayouownbeer.
There are some really ingenious people on here. I already have a list assesories and mods I want to add. Want to do a snorkel next. Really like the looks of the thru the hood one that joeymt33 and cummins pusher have. I can see finding this place is going to cost me some money.

Welcome to the forum, Ive had mine for about 3 weeks now and love it. Got just 100 miles and have had it in deep sand, and steep rocky terrain, very happy so far, Think about the under dash storage and under seat storage. They were the first 2 mods I did and it gives you allot more places to put things. Enjoy

Thanks. I was already looking at the under dash storage. I'll add this to my ever growing wish list.

I really like the blue ones like yours. They had one at the dealer the next week when I went to pick mine up. Might of had to pull the trigger on it instead of the silver.

Welcome to the forum and Congratulations on the new rig. Looks very nice and I'm sure in a couple of weeks with the forums ingenuity it will be even better. There are a few of us on here from Idaho and actually my in-laws live in Malad. Small world and a nice little town. Keep everyone posted.

Thanks. If they've lived here very long I probably know them. I've lived here for a long time.

Thanks for the welcome. About as far away in Idaho as you can get from where your at. I'm in south eastern Idaho in a little town called Malad right on I-15 about 13 miles from the Utah border.
Damn I was hoping another riding friend

LOL. I love the area your in. Can't believe it's the same state from where I'm at. We are a high desert. Was up in Spokane in November for a convention and I couldn't believe how the area between Courd'elane and there and grown. Of course I hadn't been through there in 15 years.
