Man, you are very good and thorough on your reviews. Keep up the great work!
Best of luck Stephen. Love the team at TFL and looking forward to you adding to it. This line up can take TFL to the next level...
This was an absolute fantastic sxs review and I'm so excited about this channel and all the atv and sxs reviews to come. So much better than the DT reviews where they just quote book specs and drive, ride like lunatics and only air a 10 minute segment. You are going to be a busy guy reviewing autos and recreation vehicles. TFL has done very well getting you on board. I loved the fly swatting scene at the end, great touch. What a laugh!
That you dont have more subscribers is beyond me. By far the best ATV/UTV vehicle info source on youtube
Hi Just watched your Honda Pioneer 1000 vid and now this one. I'm impressed(no, super impressed). Excellent communication skills, a tad of humour and a stack of information. Great work.
We, in Australia are currently have in a few issues with the heat. Too hot and to much of it(a few days of around 43-45c) so it's nice to be inside watching your fantastic videos.
You keep em coming like these and I keep watchin' em! Thankyou
Love the good the bad and the weird. You did a great review Stephen.
welcome stephen we wish u the best and have fun
You do an awesome job,first go to for real reviews,keep up the good work man!!
Welcome ... wish you the best! TFL has the coolest team for this kind of reviews !! you started very good!! Very good video 👍
I’m really glad you guys have expanded to UTVs, brilliant move!
Your a great addition to the Roman Empire! Welcome again to TFL always have liked your videos and the way you present them.
Thanks for the great video. Most comprehensive review on the new Ranger I've seen! Keep up the food work.
Very good job on the first review. I can't wait for more. Although I will have to get use to you being in Canada. Took me till the end of the video to figure out why you where sweating in 30 degree weather lol.
Man this was a great review keep it up I will watch cause I love EVERYTHING offroading;);)
Great video man keep them coming can't wait to see more. Cheers from Nova Scotia.
Nice review bud! Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Look forward to seeing more videos.
Great addition to TFL 👍🏽👍🏽
Just got one in white and blue with heating and air conditioning, and it helps a lot since i live in minnesota. thanks for this phenomenal review!
Great review and nicely edited!
Way more info than the other guys (DirtTrax) provide and with no bias based on sponsorship - LOL. The bug segment at the end cracked me up. You've earned my sub.
Polaris seems to have thought of everything (other than the rattling tailgate). I'd love to see how the Honda Pioneer 1000 compares to this machine.
I've seen many of your videos, you do a great job. Thanks
Outstanding review. Dare I say the best I've ever seen in The Fast Lane. Agree that the camo paint job is expensive. The only reason I'd opt for it is when the machine gets scratched, the camo paint isn't going to look as bad as some shiny clear coat paint job. Thanks again for a GREAT review!
Intimidator is 83 HP. Same towing capacity too, 2500 lbs. Great job on the review.
Think you're going to fit in well here. Solid review
Just found this channel, taking your advice on my 1st side by side purchase coming up soon.
Nice video and nice machine.
Keep up the good work.
Greetings from Sweden.
One of the better reviews I've seen. TY.
You are a rockstar! Great value here in your content. Thank you so much!
The blue light for the light switch is always on in the side by side because when u start it up in the dark you don't have to search for the light switch you know where it's at right away with the little blue light 👍
Great detail man! This is great stuff!
Great work keep the videos coming
Love how TFL has gone Canadian from Toronto and love the offroad trails of Kawartha
AllAboutVehicles The rest of Canada considers Toronto to barely be Canadian until it comes to sports ;)
Great videos brother. Just a suggestion: Would be great if you broke your videos down into sections for shoppers looking to compare say, "reliability, price, etc" and could jump to that part of the video. Thanks!
Everyone has their own likes. That's why we have different brands of just about anything. My son has a Yamaha rhino that has been a great machine. Brake job is the only thing a wrench has touched. It's 5 years old and really used on the farm and pleasure. I just bought my first side by side about a year ago. It's a can am 800 XT defender. Absolutely love it. No issues so far. I think all the name brands make good units. Treatment and maintenance are the key.
This is shot and edited perfectly.
Smart review! Great job
Never owned a side by side, but if assume the light switch has a light on it even when the lights are off so that you can see the switch if you hop in to drive somewhere when it's dark out. Just a little "convenience" feature.
Dude, nice job!
Great review. To get a better perspective of cab/drivers position, how tall are you?
Thank you for a very good review, can you include factory and the cost of extended warranties?
Thanks for sharing. Great info
Great review, made me confirm getting one 👍
GREAT INFORMATION. When will you check out the CANAM Defender XT-10 in the cab model?
Cool video, great new channel. I guess the light switch LED is there to find it in the dark.
Yea, makes sense.
bernard_hossmoto agreed. The hl switch in our general is the same way...key on = switch being lit.
well then why isn't the key hole not lit up? That switch is the only one there and if you know where it is then it doesn't matter.
Oh it is and you will be glad it's there lol
wolfpackflt670 possibly because the switch is used on other polaris vehicles along with other lighted switches. Same switch is used on the general and the rzr. Gedneral has turf mode switch and hl switch in a common location.
What a great job my friend.
5:54 Holy cow! I just learned what the _turf_ mode is. Thanks man!
Great review
Nice review but as far as the weird if you have ever tried to find a light switch in the dark you'd be thankful for that little light , maybe should be different color or dimmer but none the less makes it easy to find in the pitch dark
Yup, I totally recognize that now. Seems obvious! But it was a hot day, my brain was baked and could only think about sunshine. Thanks for watching and the comment! - Stephen
I love the new rangers but the only thing is they’re top heavy a little easier to flip than the older ones but still very nice
Great review!
The little blue light on the headlight switch stays on so you can find it in the dark lol
I would expect the blue bar light to go OFF when the headlights are on. That way you can find the switch in the dark.
I love my new ranger 1000 thanks for video
9:00 thats what happened to me with my 2016 ranger, I had to get an entire new trailer! Save yourself money, and if it does happen, you can always trade in your enclosed for a generously sized open trailer.
I thi m Tue light stayed on for the lights because when you are riding in the dark, you always know where it is.
But have a great night and day and always stay positive.
🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
How long has he been on thr tfj team? Love his reviews!
Nice video I do like the side by side and the hauling it can do . Speed is not really a factor for me . 60k on a bush trail is a lot different that a hi-way or country road
blue light stays on so you can find the switch in the dark
scott reynolds nailed it!
The John Deere gator 835r has the same specs in payload and towing capacity as the Polaris ranger xp 1000
Yup
Yes
Spent 2 hours at the dealer and the salesmen didn't know squat about what he was selling. He was pushing the Can am. Awesome video, you convinced me on the Polaris, thanks
6 months later...how's that Polaris working out for ya? Any break downs?
@@ve3xtr What kind of problems have you encountered with Polaris? Please Specify.
@@billythekid7237 go to the Consumer Affairs web page and read about all the specific problems with Polaris...enjoy.
@@ve3xtr I am referring to your experience with Polaris. Have you own a Polaris? Just looking for advice on people who have experiences with Polaris. Thank you.
A really good video, thank you for sharing
Can’t beat a Polaris ranger or rzr I have one of each
Bobcat utility vehicle is interesting it would be cool to see a review if possible. It tows 4000lbs on a UTV! it’s crazy but I have no idea anything more about it really
It would help you find your switch when the lights are off. I think it’s weird to have an illuminated switch that shows when lights are on only. The lights tell you they are on why does the switch light up. It should be lit when they are off so you can get to it in the dark
Finding the lights at night is definitely why it never turns off. I was staring at it in the sunlight and it made no sense to me at the time. But I wasn't thinking big picture. The sun was baking my brain obviously! Thanks for watching - Stephen
@@TFLoffroad Also if the light bothers you, you can remove the black jumper wire behind the switch to turn it off.
The switch for headlights on my Jeep are not illuminated. I've never had a problem find that switch that I can think of. So, I might also consider it weird.
Great vid👍my friend got old model, I wondered if difference in fuel usage between old new? But new model has better towing n payload. LOL $30,000 for HACS you can buy second hand truck for that price in Australia.
Thanks for watching.
Jamie Shields The truck arguement doesn't hold up though, these can do things that trucks can't and vice versa. I'm not taking my truck up powerlines during hunt season, too large, too heavy, and too easy to break. These also make sense for certain work crews who have to get to remote areas like hydro crews, fire marshals, fish and game etc.
That blue light helps you find the light switch in the dark.
Great review!
Anyone at TFL have a motorcycle license? Would be cool to see some motorcycle reviews if you could get them from the manufacturers. Seems like you already have a relationship with Polaris so that should help you get your hands on some Indian bikes and a Slingshot (even though it’s not a bike). Honda has plenty of bikes too and didn’t they give you an ATV for testing not long ago?
Interesting to see how far this has gone
great review
A real dude with real review. I like it cause 'Anada'! lol
Good job new guy 👍
I am very late to comment but I've had both the 900 and 1000 and i have to say everything is an improvement, except the wiper which is only on and off. 900 had a 2 speed. and the fun colors of the 900.
this upscale 1000 is to good for orange madness...
The blue light is on the switch to help u find the switch at night according to polaris.
Great video thanks. Guys i live in hamilton Ontario im looking for a great trile like that to drive my atv any suggestion? Thanks
Please review a Can Am Defender 800 or 1000, all other reviews suck. You would nail it. You might be responsible for increasing the sales of whatever product you review, unless you hated it.
You should contact John Deere about their side by sides the RSX 860I is a beast that might just put a shame in the Ranger 1000. The John Deere was designed to still be work and Play. We need a address to send you some deep woods off. Also the XUV 835R is a Direct competitor but also offers power lift cargo box.
We sold one last week and just got a vinyl camo wrap for the customer.
That little blue light on the light switch will be so you can find your light switch in the dark considering it’s just black plastic.
I see you and the bugs had a little battle huh? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great review bud.
Id assume the little blue light don't go out so you can find it when it's dark
wow. just came from the rzr turbo 4 s video and this looks more appealing, epsecially for the price
A bin of bolts under my seat would drive me crazy haha
great video. the bugs were hilarious man
What about the textron havoc? 100 hp, more suspension travel, different layout. Just is contridictory to some of you best in class claims
do you need insurance or registration/plates with this thing? I live in California.
I like the little blue lite! Lets me see the switch in the dark!
I will say it again, great review. I care were all my junk can go.
I think that headlight button stays lit for being able to see the button in the dark when you can’t see the buttons
How about heat under seat etc. while driving at slower speeds??
Good review...I would encourage you to review the specs for the Defender XT10 again and try one out for a while for comparison if the opportunity presents itself. The payload is the same with the XP1000 having a higher towing capacity (2,500lbs. vs. 2,000lbs.), but Can-Am increased the XT10 towing capacity to 2,500lbs. for 2019 so that's now a wash also. Now the biggest difference between the two is horsepower with the XP1000 having 82hp and the XT10 having 72hp. I have owned both and enjoyed both, but now only have the Defender. Personally, I pushed both machines hard and didn't really notice a difference concerning horsepower. I found them to be extremely comparable machines for both work and play. These manufacturers, especially Polaris and Can-Am, are constantly pushing one another in the off-road market which is good for consumers. I've notice it comes down to brand loyalty and when you decided to make a purchase. Because if one changes any performance aspect of their machine you can be sure the other will change within the next year.
I would very much like to test the Defender. Looks solid. We'll have some Can-Am content up soon, although it won't be a Defender review just yet. Working on it though! Thanks for the comment.
TFLoffroad I didn’t realize my comment was so lengthy. Accidentally got carried away. I’ve subscribed and look forward to your future reviews.
Another UA-camr just got his 2019 Polaris Ranger XP1000 Northstar (GPS) with AC, heat, full cab, winch, forward and backward facing light bars, tilt windshield and I think that's it?
What does a complete glacier plow system for a 2021 Polaris ranger xp 1000 ultimate cost ? Can anyone tell me if i do not need to use my winch with this plow system. I would rather not . Thanks for the video
4:01 how much times did he hit his head
I’ve had a Polaris jet ski and a fourhweelr loved them the first year the way they looked and rode but then they just stopped being reliable and became a headache
That switch is lit so you can find it when your drunk. I mean, when its dark out.
Do the Rpms tend to run high in both low and high gear
Hey bud. Do you wanna go wheeling at McLean Creek, AB or at TORE(total off road experience). LOL. More people to wheel with the better.
Hi, great reviews. I understand that the machine is a work horse and can be pretty nice on trail riding but, you never talk about reliability. What about the clutch issue, hard shifting thing, multiple recall , the so many stories from 0eople that pass more time in dealership than trail Riding ? Do we need to worry about those or it juste some isolated issues. I try to decide if I pull the trigger on the 2019 1000xp or a Yamaha x2 2019 for same price.
What did you decide? I’m shopping it out. Can Am Defender or Polaris Ranger or Honda Pioneer. Who’s the most reliable?
you are awesome great video
So if you had to choose, ranger or defender?
If it sounds like it's falling apart it probably is lol. I like your reviews good job.
Horse power sells as is the case with the Polaris but they have a horrible reliability record. I wouldn't want to stray too far from the trail unless I had a buddy with a tow rope.
What kind of tires are those on the Polaris Ranger
