Having a actual transmission and being shaft driven is what sold us and of course the honda reliability. I am going to put a windshield and roof on it and use it. I am not going to pretend it has the nicest cab like the can am but I am confident it will still be running in ten years. The back seats are alot more comfortable then I ever anticipated even for my 6 feet tall friends. I can't wait for hunting season to use it some more.
