Dad wants to buy a 1000, couple questions

My Dad is wanting to buy a 17′ 1000 around the first of the year. Is there any problems that he needs to be aware of? I know the exhaust on the 15’s was hot and melting plastics. Is that still a problem and are there any others?

He’s retired and this will be his first and last new wheeler. He riding a 96 500 Explorer now, nice upgrade [emoji1303]

Thanks
