At least until the nest purchase - Right @trigger ? I keep telling myself I'm done too, but I seem to find something I can't seem to live without.

BTW - after one or two more purchases I'll post in the poll, by then I should be over $4K - and then I won't have to update again.
Honestly, most of us have far more into our little P5’s then we’d ever hope to get out of it, right. But isn’t that beside the point. It’s fun, and it’s a great hobby. We drink beer in the shop and look at the little feller and think about what else we can do to make him happy, them federal reserve notes are well spent. :):):)

I just know every time the poll total goes up I have to change my vote...you're actually keeping count? o_O
Spreadsheet, too much gray hair to remember all this stuff :eek:. However, my Mods total includes some items that may not be considered a mod, like helmets, first aid kit etc, but I include in my personal tally because at the present time they are exclusive to the P5 as they are in my tool box and go everywhere the P5 goes.

I consider anything that was bought exclusively for the P5 as counting. Would that throw the trailer into the mix? I can use mine for other stuff and have but honestly was purchased and finished to haul this machine around...I'm over without including it anyway. :rolleyes:

Ha, didn't think about a trailer, but then I actually bought my trailer to move us from Michigan to Alabama, the added bonus is that the P5 fits inside. My total of potentially non mods add less than $250 to my total add on investment.
Like how I used the term Investment, as if I'll ever see a positive return on investment :eek:
If and when I sell, I wonder if I can claim a capital loss :confused:.

If I count the trailer, the poll needs to be higher! Given the restricted trails where I ride, not a better machine IMO, so even with the mods, it would still be about the same of a bigger machine. Considering the stock price point difference to a similar featured atv, thinking Honda did good. Lesser purchase price, add mods as you want, or not.

@Chooglin provided a link to them. I had a brain fart. The owner is a member here. She listened to the collective begging of our membership to develop a front locker. And boy did she come thru for them! We have a really good install thread here, as well as a few videos on the process if you want to see what you are getting into.

Mine started out to be a simple device for plowing the driveway with. Well that went to hell in a hurry. I have an LED light conversion, winch, plow, full Honda cab, heater, power steering, different tires, a Trigger Shield, GPS with Ram mount, electric windshield wiper, courtesy interior light, heated seats, full windshield, heater/defroster, Seizmic mirrors, Rigid tool boxes, Ragen toy hauler, regular trailer for when I am not camping, not to mention the little things that add up in a hurry, and I have only had it 10 months. But all in all it is cheaper and my wife likes it better than the rodeo habit that I had.

Would you mind posting a picture of the GPS and mount? Apparently I haven't spent enough money on mine yet...:rolleyes: I just installed Tusk H.D. front axles- another $235 bites the dust.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that the Tusk axles I bought are made in china- I wouldn't have bought them if I knew that.

I will, I am in the process of making a change as to the length of the mounting arm on the Ram mount. The first one was to long and I did not like the way it worked. The new one should be here today.
