Hello from Maine. Just picked up my 2021 Pioneer 700 Deluxe today after about a month of waiting. Had them install the factory heater at the dealership. I have a roof, windshield and winch ready to install in the next week. Only things left to grab are a soft cab and a plow before the snow starts to fly. My main plans are to use it to plow my driveway in the winter and putt around in the summer time, and maybe do a little trail riding and bird hunting up north.

WELCOME from NW Arkansas, got your buggy in the nick of time for the snow. We don't have much snow here.

I grew up in the Madison, ME area and I have the exact same machine!
Small world.
I look forward to hearing how it does plowing.
My first thought is not so good but the locked diffs have impressed me immensely!
If the plow raises and lowers with the winch, I may look into beefing up the battery & a block heater if your storing it outside.

I'm originally from up in the county but moved down to Sabattus after college for work. Winters are definitely milder here than what my folks get up north.

Appreciate the feedback. I had considered potentially running a larger battery or running a 2 battery setup. They did install battery tender leads at the dealer which I intend on using all winter. It will be stored inside but in an unheated garage. The lucky thing is that the temps are typically closer to 20-30 deg when it snows here (and not -5). I guess this winter will be a trial run to see what I may need to adjust.

Good thing you stayed away from that tangent.
