I appreciate the videos, i just bought a canam defender 2022 limited. I live in north western part of alaska, bought this for an all year round vehicle. Your reviews help alot
I know when I first started looking into Cabbed machines. It seemed like everyone was Polaris bias. I really like both machines. But after having both I wanted people to see what I seen. Glad I could help out
I have a 22’ ultimate and the bottom corners of windshield are a poor seal. I bought some 1/4” thick rubber foam and stuck to the bottom seal on cab and that helped. Driving in the winter before I did that I passed a truck on the road and snow blew up into my face.
The 22 ultimate we got didn’t leak at all. Our 19 ultimate you couldn’t drive in the rain without being soaked inside. You might check your seal or window adjustment. Maybe it needs adjusted. I’m not sure 🤔 it seems like luck.
I have owned both and they are both great , they both have similarities and differences that’s what makes them both good, still have my 2021 Northstar ultimate and it’s been great , whatever you choose just go out and enjoy it 👍✌️🇨🇦
@@americandream_89 2019 , the only difference in the 22 Northstar is seats and improved air conditioning system for the warmer weather in the south , have a great one
Can am just looks more roomy on the inside and windshield not right up in your face. Both look like great machines but your reviews def help in the decision making. The only thing I wish can am had led headlights and synthetic rope like the ranger with remote for winch but being comfortable outweighs all of that

Thinking of buying a side-by-side with full cabin, and I’m leaning toward the Can Am Defender. The only thing is that I wish Can Am would have an option for bigger tires (the standard 27-inch ones are too small).
You can install 30” tires no problem. The defender will take up to 30” without rub. If you look at my other videos I have one with 30” on it. Then resale factory tires for 450-500 makes for a cheap upgrade.
Hey buddy thanks for the sub. The one in the videos is a early 22 version it does not. The 22.5 version has roll down windows. I have one that should be here soon. I’ll have a full comparison.

The defrost doesn't help much when the cab is full of moisture. My 99 Ram work truck hasn't had A/C or heat for a decade. I have lots of experience with moisture in the truck driving 6 days a week for work, in Florida.
@@americandream_89 I am in Western AZ and my local dealer could not order me one, I tried CA and they couldn't order any currently , So i found Big Pine Sports in Utah that were accepting orders... Road Trip!
I just ordered a 2023 Polaris Ranger Northstar Ultimate. I think it comes down to personal preference. I am in Missouri and Polaris is more dominant where I live.
@@americandream_89, I have just always had Polaris and have not had any problems with all my RZRs. I also don't run the sh## out them and take care of my stuff. The other reason I chose Polaris is because I have a dealer that gives me me top dollar for my trades. No other Cam Am or Polaris dealer will do it. Only this one dealer. They sell 80% farm equipment and 20% Polaris.
@@gregmcmurray9593 I see. Polaris makes great machines. I myself sell everything out right unless the dealer could get my the same then they tax part world be better. I just had a dealer call me today with a 23 trail boss I thought about buying for the channel.

You should do a comparison video on changing the oil and transmission fluid on the two vehicles. I have owned both Rangers and Defenders, and I prefer the Can-Ams, but changing the oil on the Limited is not easy. I don't know what the engineers at BRP were thinking.
I think they run out of room in that space on defender. The rangers motor comes in under the back seat and has a access hole which makes it easy. But louder in the cab. I’m with you on the oil change for the defender it’s such a pain.
@@americandream_89 The Can Am is definitely way quieter, and turns way tighter too. I would love to see a filter relocation kit for the Defender Limited.
It’s definitely quieter. On the Crew Polaris under the rear seat there’s a hole that goes to the battery and motor. It lets so much noise in the cab compared to the defender. Defender truly has a sealed Cab.
I’m not certain how to answer your question? As in I don’t understand if your saying you don’t see the difference in cabs? This video was just to see if either cab leaked. We drive both the defender and Ranger in rain in this video. I’ve got other videos comparing both also. I could just be over looking what you mean. Hopefully I can help
How many hours and miles is a lot for a can am defender I just purchased a XD9 used to run Kawasaki mules pro fxr but those things are trash trade for can am defender
@@americandream_89 thank you I use it for spraying and hauling things do not do any trail riding or mud running but I do do some road driving speeds on the road roughly 35 to 40 or less thank you for the information Nice video
@@jonnyappleseed190 my wife likes the defender better. It not only feels better riding but has more interior space. Seats are much better in the defenders comfort wise. Letting you ride longer with out fatigue.
The Defender seals are horrible. Just bought a brand new 23 limited Lonestar and the first ride on dirt roads completely blasted all the beautiful leather and the entire interior with major dust. Very unreasonable for a $40,000 unit. Major gaps around the doors. Installed $30 worth of window seals from Lowe’s and it’s air tight now. Major flaw for their highest end model. Everything else is golden but damn Can Am….put a little more effort in your design before claiming it as you “limited” edition.
Nice to see some videos comparing the two. You should do one on what features you like on both and why, and also which ones you don’t.
Thanks for the pointers any suggestions are great. I really like to hear what people want to see.

The new ones have 30 from factory
Along with bigger front a-arms that are moved forward.
Do the forward control arms, and put 32" tires. Works great
Just compared both at a local dealer side by side and was very disappointed in the way the bottom of the defenders doors sealed compared to the ranger
2022.5 has totally different doors
Hello! Just subscribed! Does the new defender have roll down windows in the back?
Hey buddy thanks for the sub.
The one in the videos is a early 22 version it does not.

Can Am is not perfect. But definitely has the edge on Polaris in quality, reliability, and fit and finish.
Agreed
How comfortable are the seats in the can am? Good for an all day trail ride with the wife and kids? Thinking about buying one for a family rig
I think so. They are really plush and well contoured. We have a 3 year old that goes with us. He loves it. We put a booster in the middle.
What windshield do you have on the canam? I can’t decide if I want a flip poly or glass.
You 1000% want glass. The poly is too easy to scratch if you ride muddy trails.
The defrost doesn't help much when the cab is full of moisture. My 99 Ram work truck hasn't had A/C or heat for a decade. I have lots of experience with moisture in the truck driving 6 days a week for work, in Florida.
I just ordered a 2023 Defender max limited Lonestar... No ETA but were hoping 9-12 weeks...
They told me December on mine. That would be a 4 month wait if it comes then. The last one was 4 months also

Do you know if Can-am or an aftermarket company has a drop in seat option for the bead?
Lol
You will have to rephrase that question?
I don’t know what your referencing
What are the cab height comparisons and dimensions. Need to be able to fit in a 7’ high garage door.
Both fit in 7’ garage

Do you notice one drives better than the other??
They both drive very similar. The Polaris is easier to navigate looking out with the cab being narrower. The defender seems to steer easier.

For sure.
Tha Can-Am sounds quieter and smoother.
It’s definitely quieter. On the Crew Polaris under the rear seat there’s a hole that goes to the battery and motor. It lets so much noise in the cab compared to the defender. Defender truly has a sealed Cab.
The can am was a lot quieter? Thanks
Yes
Is it just the video or is the Canam a lot quieter?
Defender is about 2-4db less
So where is the comparison? Just audio/verbal?

Me too! I hope they clutched it for the 30s
It’s all in the motor and can am rules this department there is no competition out there at the moment
Agree
How loud is the can am inside the cab?
It’s drastically better than the ranger but I didn’t decibel read them

It really depends on user to be honest. But if it’s well taken care of and not trashed I’ve seen them with over 10000 many times.

Not sure I understand your comment
Can Am seamed much quieter
They are by about 3-5db
The point of doing a video is to relay the content. Its hard to watch when your child is talking the entire time.
