Birthday present this year. I added tires/rims, roof, windshield and mirrors for street legal but missed the deadline here in Michigan.

The new Honda looks really cool. From the pictures, I like that it can be a full fledged 4 passenger vehicle, yet still have a "fullsize" bed; based on modular configuration. The other ones that can do this are so long they look like a school bus, and will not fit in an 8' bed truck bed; and still allow you to tow as well.

I've got a gas golf cart with a 4' x 4' bed, which I used every inch of from time to time. I would not want to switch over to a SxS without this capability, but would also want a fast/fun machine too. I'm going to keep my eye on how they perform.

Made the mistake of selling the golf cart when I bought the SXS, golf cart was way easier for working around the yard.

I currently have a RZR XP1k but the new 144hp Turbo is looking tempting... The one photo is my XP and CrownLPX's Fox 800.

A buddy of mine has the Teryx and loves it. You're right about being a good off season pastime and with this damn El Nino weather pattern, I'll probably get more seat time in the RZR than the sled this winter (which sucks in my book btw)... Not that I don't like the SxS, I just love sledding.

The real downside to the SxS is the clean up. I would sooner clean my truck. lol!

I have a CanAm Maverick I recently started woods racing. One of the most fun forms of racing I have ever done. It is about 1/2 the cost of boat racing to.

I'm kind of afraid of that too; that I'll get the SxS, and end up keeping the golf cart. I already have way too many internal combustion devices around here. I'm trying to downsize.
It doesn't look this good anymore as it get's used a lot; driven all over the yard, woods, ditches, etc. It's the best $1500 I've ever spent.

I'm old school. Banshee's and CR500AF. Love the old two strokes. The smell of castor and the scream of a two stroke is addictive.

I've got a 86 Tecate 3 wheeler project that I'll finish someday. It's got an air cooled 84 kx500 motor in it but I want to put a newer liquid cooled motor in it. It doesn't run yet need to make a pipe and am gonna wait til I have the liquid motor. Knowing me it will sit on the shelf for a few more years lol
