I think if you are 100% sure you'll only have 2 passengers then a base 1000 should be fine.
and if your under 30 years old, then non EPS should be no problem.

I've steered a 500 in 4wd enough to know its a must for me next time, but I'm an old man

Well I just turned 29, so I guess that still qualifies for a non-eps. Will always just be me and the wife, unless a niece or nephew tags along but that's rare.

No more like mine. Im sure could have found a 1000 like that, especially around here.

But I see the OPs point. I'm kinda in a similar situation. As badass as the 1000-5 Deluxe is , as often as I ride it would be $$$ just sitting there waiting to be used. And I also like the 1000-3 stance. To me it looks more like a tough little pick up truck.
If I had a choice. 1000-3 in white with a lift and some black wheels would be plenty for me

Go with the EPS model so you get the paddle shifters ,other wise you have no manual mode

I sold a Commander 1000 for the pioneer. The wife could not drive the commander because of no power steering. I will never buy another utv without it after getting it in the Pioneer. Plus everyone that wanted my commander backed out when they found it had no power steering. Just my thought but get it.

I have the P1000 3 EPS and love it. You cant forget about the tilt steering, that is worth it for me. Good luck.

Just found this. Interesting choice of tires.

I have the 1000-3EPS and would never consider on without ps as my wife uses it around the yard. Also I like to run in manual mode and do the shifting myself. Re-sale is another reason, plus it would be very tiring fighting the manual steering on a long ride.

Good luck which ever route you take.

I wish they made an olive eps model.

I know exactly how you feel. Originally I wanted an olive 1000-3. I talked to the dealer and was told I could purchase the olive colored front hood for around $300. You can also purchase the olive colored door and bed panels later on. I ended up getting the olive 1000 5 since it ended up being the same price as a 1000 3 with eps.

I bought the 1000-3 non EPS in Olive and I love it. Never drove one with power steering so idk but I think a lot of these guys are spoiler. Both my racecars are manual racks, my mud truck is a manual rack spinning 40s and my dually on 37s might as well be manual rack because the power steering sucks lol. I bought mine to work, hunt and push a race car. seems like a lot of these guys buy these as hobbies, I bought mine to assist in my hobbie. If I would have paid more attention and noticd you can unbolt the rear section of the cage on the 1000-5 I probably would have spent the extra because I think that cage is way too "suv that my grandpa drives". Im about to throw some aftermarket black wheels on it with stock tires just to give it that "im not completely base model" look lol. THE MAIN REASON I bought mine was because I paid $11,300 and got $500 gift card from Honda which bought the roof. I didn't tell her I was buying it so it was kind of a Christmas present to us both.

I have a 1000-3 EPS as well as a '14 700-4 (no PS). The P700 steers easily and I argued with everyone I rode with (who all have P1K5Ds) that I didn't need PS and refused to buy a UTV with it. Then I drove a EPS model and a non EPS model back to back. Left with the EPS and for something like $3-400 more. And you get the paddle shifters with it as well, which I actually use to keep the bike where I want it when riding.


Also, tell the dealer to throw in the olive green plastics. When My brother bought his, they only had red, but he wanted silver. So the dealer threw in all of the silver panels and all we had to do was swap it all out.

I didn't need the EPS and was sure that it was a total waste of money..........
until my wife decided that she liked the idea of a SXS and after a trip to the dealer for her to try, the PS sealed the deal.
Was just outside plowing snow with the P1000 EPS and man what a joy the PS is.
Whatever you decide, the P1000 is where it's at for a SXS.

I just put power steering on my p500 and I was like a kid in a candy store. Looking towards converting my old Rincon Tracks to fit on this rig and p/s is mandatory with tracks. Won't be a speed demon but will have fun!
