I've strayed, but not gone for good.

Long story short, I had a Honda foreman ATV. My wife planted the seed that we should get a side by side, so off I went. Forgetting that inventory was going to be low I sold my ATV, but then couldn't find the SxS I wanted, a new Honda pioneer 520. Surprise Surprise.

I stumbled onto a 2015 500, so I snapped it up. Been hanging on the hondasxs forum for a few days. Sorry guys, I'll come home soon. :)

Here's a pic of my Rangers new toy, before I gave it a once over and power wash today. She was in need of a bath, as you can see.

why clean it just to get it dirty again
I hear you. But, it was filthy inside, and as I worked my way down it had obviously been mud bogged. There was an inch or 2 of dried mud all over the frame. I washed all that out, but when I parked it I noticed more mud. Needs another wash.

I still do not know why someone would buy a car that is in the shape of a truck...

I tend to agree. But, this guy had been buried in mud and I will never bury it again. It needed a deep clean. After 2 power wash sessions I think it's cleared out. I didn't do any detailing on it, but it needed a good wash on the under carriage.
