1. two automatic 500cc models: the one they have now and one with 4 wheel independent suspension.

2. a more than 493cc engine something like a true 500 or 650.

3. true 4x4 but unlike polaris.

4. more ground clearance or more beefy tranny/differentials and bigger tires.

5. a high/low/super low range.

6. a protective guard for tail light.

7. a rattle free radiator access cover.

8. a third light in front of speedometer.

9. a 4x4 indicator light (so you don't forget it is in 4x4 and try to make a sharp turn or go head to head with another quad and stand your quad up because your tires engaged the other atvs front rack--i know i did it.)

10. factory aluminum or stainless steel full coverage front cvj protectors.

11. protection for rear drive shaft.

12. composite racks (weight reduction).

13. full protection floor boards.

14. a keyed differential locker to deter theft. (i know, not very realistic).

15. wider seat. (i have a wide...you know the rest).

16. front and rear receiver hitches (1.25" ok).

17. a broader spectrum of body colors (blue, black, yellow, etc.)

18. handlebar mounted 12 volt outlet.

19. more top end speed without sacrificing low end torque.

20. cup holder.

if none of the above come to pass, i won't care because i am fully satisfied with my cat. i just want to make a good thing even better.

The big one for me would be a lockable front diff on the 500 manual with 2wd/4wd/4wd lock selection.
A bigger gas tank for those long excursions and hunting trips would be a plus too.

1. handle bar mounted headlight, better headlights in front.
2. MORE RATTLE RESISTANT PLASTIC!
3. Adjustable shocks like Suzuki or the Progressive suspension models.
4. Top speed doesn't really matter to me, I don't race, just work it like a dog!
