Default 4PL vs 4PKS

So what are the benefits of a 4PKS over the 4PL? I have a 4PL but I'm thinking about getting a 4PKS... I've found one were I'll only have to spend about $100 more after selling the 4PL but I'm wondering is it worth the $100? Thanks in advance...

Where the hell did you find a 4pks for 225-240$ cause you won't get much more than 125 for a 4pl.

I'd try to find a 4PK...or keep the 4PL. The 4PKS offers the "same" features as the 4PL plus the 4 wheel steering options, but what I don't like about the 4PKS are the little things. What I mean is the 4PK will show you the percentage you have the rear ESC at on the home screen whereas the 4PKS requires you to leave the home screen and go into another menu to be able to view this setting on the fly. I know that's a small thing to worry about, but I think it's big enough to make a decision between a 4PK and 4PKS easier.

I agree with itty above. I liked the 4pk much better than the 4pks for the reason he listed.

4pl to 4pk should I do it??

See if the 4PL has the updates. The earlier ones had some issues and lacked some features. The update resolved this (free update other than shipping cost.....my son had it done & time out & back was ~1 week).

I believe the 4PL support thread has the firmware version #/serial # that shows the update.
Harley started the thread IIRC.
