@@Julio-jm8ld Watch the PBS special, 'Made in the USA' We have a very smart work force. Volkswagen has worlds largest car manufacturing plant on American soil. But they wouldn't if we bought American cars.
Problem with north American made.. especially if you are Canadian wanting Canadian made... the majority of manufacturing is subsidized because they still have to pay ridiculous taxes. Import/export tax is much cheaper than climate/income/property/ whatever tax... it all comes down to cost of doing business. Not parts, maybe a little bit of labor... but mainly tax
I commented about the hard doors on the previous video without knowing you'd already ordered them with more accessories. Nice , thousands less with these add-ons. Nice .
Great video with you and Jared. Great explanation of the CF. Ive never heard of them until you made a video. Great addition of the doors and windshield. Are you thinking of a heater? Great to see the upgrades and looking forward to the other upgrades coming.
The upgrading accessories of side by sides remind me of an old editorial cartoon that lampooned the Segway back when it came out. It showed the step by step addition of things like a training wheel; luggage carrier; roof; windshield fairings; passenger seating for the family; seat belts; roll cage; complete airbags; lighting and entertainment system ...you get the picture - until it had morphed into a full blown 4WD SUV with off-road tires. I think we're about halfway there with some of today's toys. lol
Hey Adam, one thing I think they should have done was have the windows in the doors open in the reverse. Think about it if its raining or just drizzling you can t open the side windows because rain will come in by the direction of the opening if they opened in reverse the air would still get in but not the water especially if you want to keep the side windows from fogging up but mostly to keep the rain out. Remember the older cars if you are old enough, they all had side vent windows separate from the side window for just that reason and worked great for that purpose... "just saying"
On the two piece doors, buy the power window glass doors.Yes they are a whole bunch of money, but the glass rolls all of the way down out of the way,allowing lots of air to move around.I have about 50 miles on our new Alpine.
This is Rob from MAIN STREET CYCLE in Tishomingo MS. The #1 Cfmoto dealership in the USA. Please let us know how we can help support you in your future plans with the U1000! I look forward to hearing from you. Great video and an awesome U1000.
Thats Awesome! Very clean install! Its crazy how automotive-like these SxS units are getting. How hard would it be to remove the door completely and swap for a half style door instead of making the changes to the full doors.... almost like a jeep where you can lift the door off the hinges and swap with a half door or trail door. Might be a better option then messing with the gaskets and seals on such a nice set up
Great fit, finish and build on those doors. Looks like with the addition of wipers, you might (?) be close to getting that unit "street legal". Not sure what your state laws are in that regard. Looks like a great vehicle. Be well, be safe!
Hey Adam, I always love your Videos, they are great, I have one suggestion for you, could you get a remote Microphone, sometimes your volume goes up and down, just a suggestion, thanks.
Looks cool. I have a mule pro mx and out windshields and doors on. Thinking of heater options. You thinking that too? Nice and toasty on winter mornings when plowing
I would love to see an update on your experience with the Uforce and fully enclosed factory cab. I have the same machine, and have been thinking about getting the doors. As Im sure you know the cab gets quite toasty with the front and back windshields WITHOUT the doors. Id love to hear what you think of the doors in the summer months and winter months alike. Ive been looking at getting a set and would love an honest review!
Great video. I just got a 2024. Same doors as yours but decided on the SuperATV flip up windshield. I have to slam the doors shut because the mounts are thicker on the windshield. Also, I can't see the side mirrors because the door frame blocks it. Do you have that issue? Also, do you have heat?
Cool video. I am trying to find the PN for the doors that come with the blue decals on them. I have seen them with the red decal on them too (for the black/red model). All I am seeing online is the plain black doors with no decals. How did you get them with the decal to match the paint?
I would like to send you some bad to the bone RNG Performance clutch kits to check out on your rigs. Please let me know if you are interested. My kits are a game changer. They will make the clutch super smooth. Way more throttle response and depending on the setup you want we can go mild to wild.
Very nice looking machine adam. Im looking to purchase a Side by side this spring and am considering all options. Does CFMOTO sponsor your channel, or was this purchase all you?
Do your doors seal good at the bottom? I just purchased a set for mine and one of them does not have a good seal at the bottom. I've loosened all the hinges and tried to adjust it but when you get a seal on the bottom then it's off on top and the latch wont be in the correct place. Have you had any experience with this and if so how did you get it to have a good seal all around the door?
My opinion, if you did not get that done from the factory originally not gonna be good but let me know if it turned out to be good. Do you have heat and air conditioning in that vehicle like Polaris?
Hey Adam, I’m looking at potentially purchasing one of these in the near future. Are you still happy with your purchase and would you recommend over Polaris Ranger. I’m looking at using one for firewood and around the farm type work. Thanks!
Adam, nice upgrade 👍. With your family growing in #, I have a feeling you might wish you’d bought the UForce 1000 XL crew cab instead of the regular cab. Has that crossed your mind? 😅
Nice machine. The concern I would have obviously this is built in China things are going to get bad in the future with trade, supply of parts and everything else we get from there going to be an issue. personally I would spend a little bit more for the big brands Honda or Yamaha, Polaris,etc.
Can you explain to this Englishman why you guys call this a side by side? Surely in all your vehicles you and a passenger get to sit side by side? thanks Bob
@@fullthrottle2656 Hello, I know it sounds hard to believe, but here me out. A not so good neighbor had a vplow on his polaris ranger. He tried to sell the plow kit to me because it doesn't work well here in the mountains with deep snowfall. He now owns a rapid track Ariens after seeing me finish my whole drive in just 1hr down from several hours to never ending towards the end of the season. The ariens 420cc is much more that 5hp, easily moves over 102 Tons of snow per hour, and it moves it 50' or more from my driveway, the track system easily goes where no side-by-side without tracks could dream of. The 420cc engine is a tq monster, sounds like a 450mx bike at full load. The snow thrower is easy on the ground, and doesn't scoop my gravel from the switchbacks like the blades can in the muddy snow seasons. The v plow is just as worthless in its own way, I know from experience. There is no comparison, a utv snow plow is worthless up here. The utvs are not heavy enough, the snow gets to deep and its actually embarrassing how poorly utv's preform at plow duty here. You have to consider narrow winding and steep driveways, every time you push snow off to the side it compacts and builds up, making the road a little narrower each time. Vblades and regular utv plows are usable for flatlanders, although incredible inefficient and racks up hours on expensive equipment. My driveway requires 4wd, locker and the best tires to climb, the uforce1000 could hardly get itself up, I had to plow downhill most of the time. Gets to a point it becomes an ice shut you slide down with sxs's.
Yep, supply chain problems, high fuel prices and shortages, runaway inflation, illegals and deadly drugs pouring across our open southern boarder, increasing crime, IRAs down 30% and falling, and the threat of nuclear Armagiddon. Gee, what happened two years ago that brought this great country to such a lowly state. GOD HELP US ON NOVEMBER 8!
Adam don’t worry man. I created an account for my wife to fill this void. You do an awesome job man. I love what you do on this channel. I love a guy that has a channel based on rural American living gets persecuted for buying a nice piece of equipment. Wouldn’t it have been better for him to buy John Deere with a Yanmar? Get a grip.
I’m unfortunately sorry to tell ya that very few things are made anywhere else today… I’m not really interested in paying for the brand name and the majority of all company’s products on the market today have a collection of parts in them that are imported from the Red China and anywhere else that they can source they cheaply… Stihl chainsaw’s canceled their long standing contract with the Oregon company … where they had the financial leverage to pay less then production costs with them for years and they have company blood-let them into a Bankruptcy situation and they have built their relationship with their Chinese Manufacturing Counterpart’s!!! Freaking Wake Up!!! You aren’t saving anything purchasing from any company anywhere anymore!!! If you can eliminate a middle man or another company and purchase directly then you’ll pay less period!!! China was given the green light to gut America’s Economic base in the late 70’s buy the completely greedy politicians who are still being voted for and are currently an office and running your country!!! I’m buying from China and I’m going to try to get everything I can for as cheap as possible and keep the lowest overall overhead possible! I’m a business! You as a citizen won’t help save America buy where you are purchasing your product’s from.,. You might try to wake up your neighbors to vote out the socialist state whose preaching free money and services for everyone whether you earn them or not and everyone deserves anything they want… simply for waking up at noon and meeting their new day! Even our Corporate America is living on the Welfare State! Might be the time for some new policy and some fiscal conservative’s and the elimination of the non-existing tariffs to sell foreign products for nothing here! Wishful thinking 🤔?!! Hey there buddy, I took 8 college loans and bought a bunch of great weed and lots of cheap beers!!! I’m deeply In debt now and I’m stressed out so since you in a drop out of school at 17 and started working to help keep your family fed and the light bill on your not mind paying those off for me here because I was completely irresponsible fiscally?…welcome to America bro! We had to separation of church and state 35 years ago maybe it’s time we have the separation of those who think they are getting free money from the government and those who realize that they are working and paying taxes and they are a part of their “government”… and nothing is “free”??? And you get what you pay for obviously… you can look at the frame construction and the overall construction on these lower cost options and I see immediately where I’ll need to add more strength and support and you will not be getting the same service life from the lower price unit… but it’s a fantastic opportunity and option for someone who is interested in getting into the lifestyle or outdoor activities and it’s a great starter unit and a fantastic learning experience and opportunity for someone’s who is interested in either learning more or someone who only really needs a little more light weight and less powerful buggie or side-by…. I would personally immediately pop off that engine and toss it up onto the bench and run through it and do the final finishing and ease over all the edges and basically port and polish it up like a China chainsaw engine and I’ll get my 15 years of abuse and use for my 4 grand!!! But that’s how I think…. I’m not going to pay $15,000 for a higher quality and already detailed unit if I can trade my week of work after I get all my other work done and I trade my sleep and tv and sitting on my ass time for some work and make sure that I’m looking at the powerplant and I grab a little metal piece scrap I’ve been collecting for 40 years and build that front bracket and pop my hole so I definitely have my 2” square tube steel receiver there where it absolutely needs to be!!! And I’ll definitely get some more metal and make a little more protective front and rear brush guard and ain’t bust off the plastic stuff frame…. I just got 8 little cheap and lighter weight angle iron….that’s 8 bed frames .., I have enough scrap angle to build it anything I could need …. I’d find an old tractor plow or make a little 5’ wide frame and bend a section of poly culvert pipe and attach it to my bed frame angle with a nice 5’ long and 6” wide 1/4 or 1/2” plate so I have a good scrapper blade on my plow and just fab a little bracket and use the wench to pop it up??? Five holes and a pin on a spring is all the direction control over the angle that I would want or need… power angles equals more power Crap to break!!! I would definitely make the doors too!!! A little 1.5” tube frame and some poly sheets would be super easy and less then $100 bucks of poly plastic…. Just grab some woven roven and a little roll of mess a a couple gallons of cheap poly resin and layup your fiberglass sheets with the yellow or orange gel coating resin mixture in your resin and just buy some pin-up bracket’s from your local supply…, it’s a fantastic base unit for a fantastic price for someone who can work on their own stuff!!!
I'm a Made in USA guy, but I wish US companies could make machines this affordable
If everybody bought American, than stuff would be more affordable.
@@darthgbc363 I was under the impression that it was labor cost that made it impossible for companies to manufacture here and still have profit.

Way better than canvas doors!!
Looks great and will be nice this winter!
Nice video of this install. Good explanations, and good use of time lapse. Cool video to watch. Now, looking forward to see this thing in use. Cheers!
Pretty sweet setup!
Looks pretty nice! I agree on wanting a more easy way to remove the door uppers.
Great addition to the CF, looking forward to seeing the plot and it in action. PS your looking much more rested today.
Nice cab upgrade Adam, you'll love it withe snowblower.
That will be great for winter!

Lift kit, wheel spacers and bigger wheels and tires? Lol
Looks nice, because the cab is sealed up tight and no heat, this winter your breathe/moisture might frost up the inside windows..

I stroked when i looked the door price up. Im still thinking of getting the Uforce 1000
Looks cool. I have a mule pro mx and out windshields and doors on. Thinking of heater options. You thinking that too? Nice and toasty on winter mornings when plowing
Definitely need bumpers. Hit a few trees and just scratched the bumpers only no damage to the machine!
Love your channel. You need to use a remote mic.

Nice toy, hope it earns its keep. Reno
No heater? How loud is the UForce 1000 with and without the cab?
No windshield wipers?
Do you have a heater? Or is there one available for the machine?
No front windshield wiper? I think that a must for rain and snow
What kind of pliers were those to take the clips out ?
Did they ever redesign the floppy door bottoms? I skipped these parts after seeing how flimsy the bottom of the doors were.
Heater or windshield wiper?
Great video. I just got a 2024. Same doors as yours but decided on the SuperATV flip up windshield. I have to slam the doors shut because the mounts are thicker on the windshield. Also, I can't see the side mirrors because the door frame blocks it. Do you have that issue? Also, do you have heat?

Did I miss the windshield wipers?
How do you like you cf moto we are thinking about getting one I have a CF Medicone seems to run pretty good
Adam, is that Jared’s orange Boss or Mach I Mustang ? Nice car !
So when is a set of doors for the 1000 xl gonna be available
I would like to send you some bad to the bone RNG Performance clutch kits to check out on your rigs. Please let me know if you are interested. My kits are a game changer. They will make the clutch super smooth. Way more throttle response and depending on the setup you want we can go mild to wild.
Can you get these with ac and heat? These are very nice
I’d probably either buy a 2nd set of doors to leave in summer mode or just remove them completely in warm seasons.
Adam how far from that dealer do you have to travel?
Thinking about one of these. Do you like it better than the ranger. Great video.
I waz wondering why wipers were talked about? Snowblower iz a great reason for the wipers!
Very nice looking machine adam. Im looking to purchase a Side by side this spring and am considering all options. Does CFMOTO sponsor your channel, or was this purchase all you?

How is the cab enclosure holding up? Im contemplating the 1000 with full cab
I’d like to see the windows just roll all the way down like a pickup truck.. can am has the best doors for that reason
Hey Adam, I’m looking at potentially purchasing one of these in the near future. Are you still happy with your purchase and would you recommend over Polaris Ranger. I’m looking at using one for firewood and around the farm type work.
Thanks!
Time to step up the microphone game
He is… should see an improvement soon…
I ordered full doors for my 2023 uforce 1000, the dealer said there are no decals for the doors. Can you tell me where you got your door decals?
When will the UA-camr learn to mic up the person doing the work away from the camera?
Only could hear part of what the service man was saying.
Does your Uforce have a heater?
No, but I don't see what you couldn't purchae a little heater that plugs into your 12v cigarette plug to warm up the cab.
Adam, nice upgrade 👍. With your family growing in #, I have a feeling you might wish you’d bought the UForce 1000 XL crew cab instead of the regular cab. Has that crossed your mind? 😅
The turn radius on those (any xl sxs) is awful. These are much better
So you are getting a snowblower
That's what I thought.
I hope u didn’t haul it backed on the trailer. It’s designed to b going faster forward than reverse
Are these jerky that the Zforce
Nice machine. The concern I would have obviously this is built in China things are going to get bad in the future with trade, supply of parts and everything else we get from there going to be an issue. personally I would spend a little bit more for the big brands Honda or Yamaha, Polaris,etc.
How much do the doors cost?
$1,099 ea right and left
The guy has no customers when you are there! :)
Cool video. Please dont tow it backwards now. Speaking from experience.
I just wanna know how the machine is running after a year of posting this video any problems????

Can u just remove the doors

It’s short for side by side ATV. As opposed to a single seater quad ATV
They sure copied MotoTassinari Vforce name that has been around for years.
I will save you the trouble, the plow kit is worthless. A 5hp snow blower does better than a sxs with a flimsy plow.
Dont be so cheap and buy the Boss V-plow for it. Good luck moving more snow with your 5hp then.
