I already couldn't say enough good things about my pioneer, but here's one more reason! To love this thing. Its is an absolute beast when pushing snow! I will try to add a video I took of pushing 18" of snow with no problem at all!

If I had to pick one it would be the 30in silverbacks. Those tires have made it through mud I shouldn't have, I cant count how many times I said to my wife hold on were going for it and made it to the other side sometimes in 2wd. The last ride I was following bastardchild his p500 is on portals and a huge tire I was in his ruts giving it hell and didn't get stuck. Bastardchilds tires make my 30's look like stock tires.

Right now it is the winch/snowplow combo. This thing is a mountain goat.

I'm pretty torn on this. I'd probably have to make a top 10 list and not have them in any order

I really like my Alienshade roof. It's awesome all summer long. It's been super durable, it's light and it blocks the sun. It's also a ton quieter than the Honda hard roof and way less clumsy than the Honda softtop. I also don't care that it doesn't block rain

I really love my Fox shocks. The adjustments are quick and easy and the ride is so much better than stock

Parking brake. Sorry Honda you missed the mark on the turf mode only Park. Adding a parking brake is well worth it

Rear door mod. Storage space is good if you have the under dash storage but the rear door mod with the in-door storage is hard to beat. I love it

BCF Harness bar. I love my Dragonfire Evo harnesses and my wife even said they are so much better, so they must be good

I went with the alienshade also due to fact of where I usually ride is alot of tight off camber trails that I'm leaning and rubbing trees and was afraid I would bust that $500 hard roof! Although I would like to be rain/snow proof with the extra storage I could improvise up top. How has you sunshade held up? I have broke a few of the bungees that attach it to the roll bar again rubbing against trees, but its no biggie there. I keep thinking about those fox shocks and a better ride, as I do alot of trail riding and wish it was a little smoother, but dang that's a chunk of change. And I dont wana lose the self-leveling feature!, do these fox have that as well? Also really digging the rear door mod! It's worth all the storage you gain from cutting up your machine?

Superatv flip out windshield. It's been great when hunting in the cold and rain. No more water from the roof running onto the dash when you stop.

The Honda hard roof is really tough. I wouldn't worry about damage.

Fox shocks are not load leveling but you can add preload to maintain ride height with more weight in the machine or switch to stiffer springs

I wasn't worried about ruining the doors. I could always put the screws back and nobody would know they have holes

Ok I don't count my C-fab lift, snorkel, tires, gear reduction as mode they are just given to me I wouldn't own this SXS without them.

So after that I'm going with alienshade with the extra noise of the gear reduction and the dust its just a must for me hands down best mode. (It cuts way down on noise and the amount of dust you deal with)

Love having a radio also.

No the gear reduction is done inside the transmission. (go to facebook and type in (Reduction Boss - Honda gear reduction specialist.). Jeremy Lee is the guys name that make them.

Very nice! I'm sure those are alot better than factory seatbelts. And do your door panels unscrew and pop off? There not hinged like some on here?

I have the quick release push buttons in all 4 corners
