New to the group

[JoelGX550]

Hi Everyone, I'm new to the group, my wife and I live in Wisconsin, but are active winter enthusiasts both snowboarding and skiing, so we spend a lot of time out west in Idaho, Montana, and Utah in the winter and take our ATV out as much as we can in the spring and fall months. We got our GX550 OT+ about 2 months ago used, although we ordered an OT, we decided to bite the bullet and buy off the used market. I have been a loyal Honda Pilot owner for 20 years, we still have our 2012 with almost 300K miles and still going strong, but didn't want to risk any more 5000 mile trips with it.

We love our GX, but have experienced many of the same quarks as everyone else, and as an engineer question some of these things. We trailer a lot, and love the power and torque of the GX. Looking forward to a decade or more out of this vehicle... Hoping to learn and share a lot with everyone. Thanks

Welcome! Nice Overtrail! What part of Wisconsin? My Mother is a Milwaukee area farm girl from the 1940s. Still have family in Menomonee Falls.
