Howdy everyone! Can you please take a moment and post how you found this forum?

Strange that they haven't approved your account... I thought it was automated... I guess they are watching new member accounts as they come in...

Glad to have you and everyone else here....

Lurk on! Or even better post a thread if you have any particular questions to help you make a decision. I can promise you that 90% of the people here are full of good information and the other 10% are full of something too!

Yeah...I was full of something too......up until about 20 minutes ago!!!.....It's all good now.....

Man, This place has a different "feel" already. I just started looking at the SS recently so I'm seeing there are different models. I'm thinking about getting the basic base model and upgrading the areas as i see fit. I'm not seeing a reason to purchase things that i will be changing out in the future Also that i would be paying interest on as I pay off the vehicle.
I'm a 50yr old that found a great job working at a local lake for Texas Parks and Wildlife. I have other cars/trucks to drive in bad weather. Just want something to enjoy driving.

I would like to submit that I am fully qualified to be in the "other" 10 percent and have the credentials to back it up

Being an over achiever I plan to get my Masters Degree soon

This place has that "I can't believe the admins actually post and participate" feeling.

I would get the base and add what you want as you can. The way I see it is people buy the other models for their color more than the added features.

Basically if Polaris had offered the Red as a base with no options I think a lot of people would have went that direction. And this would have been true with Orange and Black. I think their is enough info out now that people know they can have better add-on products than what is provided by Polaris.

I'll tell you this....I have been a admin on multi-able sites for different hobbies. The admin's job is NOT a glorious one. If your heart is not in the middle of whats going on, it's so easy to get burnt out or tired being the referee. You have my respect!

PM on the other forum, before they blocked it.

I just saw a SS locally ( Denton,Texas) and have been doing research since then. I registered on another form a couple weeks ago put haven't been approved yet. I guess they have slow admins, or not enough of them.... I found a link on the same forum to this one. I will most likely be a lurker for awhile, until I can learn what model I want. But thanks for the quick registering!!

Shaun, Good place to learn a lot, Lots of fun, and lots of great people willing to share there ideas and experiences. Put the word out that you might be willing to buy pie & coffee and somebody in your area might stop by and take you for a ride. I would but --- about 1,000 miles one way. Did have a guy follow me home ---took him for a 20 min ride. He's ready to give up the Vette for a Slingshot.

I received sage legal advice from a Louisiana Lawyer...it was kinda odd he kept saying "Chrome is the way"....I thought he meant my chrome book...

Sorry, off topic (something I RARELY do ), but are you & our other "Houstonites" all okay?! Lots of flooding & power outages per the news...

Pretty bad @Tripod, but the family and I are okay... So is the SS... Thank goodness.

We are in SW Houston (near Meyerland), but our street has done really well whenever it rains bad.

Houstonians, go to the region section and check into the South...

Not off topic my friend! Thank you for checking! I went into the hospital about 4:45am and there was already some street flooding...over half of my patients made it in which is quite impressive! More rain is expected...which means more flooding...I'm on the ride out team...if they need me I go in and stay until we are back to normal operations...but we are alright!!!

Found it at Slingshotroadsters also.

I was followed home by a hooded man that sounded like Rab but I couldn't tell who said if I didn't come over he would hided my Mickey Mouse flannel pajamas and I would never see them again

Saw the storm clouds gathering over there,then somebody posted this site and the rest is history. And I really enjoy the members over here.

You will find lots of opinions as to what to buy - me I bought a base and did it my way. May I suggest going to the blogs and reviewing some of the builds posted. Lots of great ideas and you can save money at someone else's expense.
No matter what I am sure once you own one neither you are you credit card will ever be the same again. Enjoy be safe
