    Wow -- was surprised to hear about that wait! I'm not looking for a while yet, but am thinking about a 4010 Trans, so I can go between 2 and 4 passengers with the expandable bed. I like the idea of the 4 seat option for times when we have family or visitors to our property. That said, I have sometimes wondered if it would be better to get 2 of the SX models, so my wife and I could each have one available as needed.

    • @bdradley1
      @bdradley1  Рік тому +1

      I think the supply and demand may be equalizing some, It appears that dealers are starting to have them on the lots more readily. I have a buddy who has both the 2 and 4 seater, he got the 4 for the exact raeson you speak of but has found that the 2 seater is the one that always gets used. I knew that in my application the 2 seater would be best. I have a 4 door truck but its always just me so I could get away with a 2 door if they were still available lol ! Good luck and thx for watching! Dave

    Appreciate the video as this is what we are looking for. Local dealer only wanted to sell me the fast models with all of the bells and whistles. We have a small farm and our SxS will be used for work only. Hope to get my hands on one of these soon.

    • @bdradley1
      @bdradley1  Рік тому

      Thank you spooker I appreciate it. We are exactly in the same boat when it comes to what we want and why. The dealer and manufacturer, I believe, want to concentrate their profit margins on the higher end models. The dealer still tried to upgrade me to a higher model when this one finally came in for me. This model does everything I need and then some. It was $8950 out the door. Thx for watching! Dave

Make sure if you buy a windshield, that it will mount with side mirrors. I bought one but hadn't put it on yet because of the warm weather(GA). 31 hours not one problem!

      I still love it and wouldn’t change a thing. I use with my horses and around farm, thought seriously about adding an electric ram with switch on dash so I could dump but it’s not a major issue at all to dump manually. I don’t even use the dump option nearly as much as I thought bc of my tractor with front end loader. Now that I have it, I use daily and sometimes just go out for a quick joyride. You will love yours and congrats. I’ve added the mat in bed and on floor as well as trailer hitch. Still need windshield but it’s really only for winter to keep cold air off of you. I bought a winch but never installed as it’s never come up that I needed it! Thx for watching, Dave

Lack of 4WD is no issue at all, I’ve had in woods, at lake, hunting camp and never even had to lock differential. I’ve had folks say “you should have gotten 4WD” but once they drive off road they change their minds. I’ll get update video out soon. Thx for watching, Dave

      @@bdradley1 gotcha, an nah I’m not looking for one to do all that. I just seen this on a dealer close to me for roughly 13k but the 2023 model. I just need it for some travel as I live in a rural area, so from my place to in town store location. Save on insurance for a vehicle and just use this as a daily driver. But I also need it for some yard work and other duties as I live on 70+ acre land. So it’ll be good for some light snow removal instead of paying a butt load for almost a km driveway. But with that all being said I’ve heard nothing but great reviews for the mule from Kawasaki, but I also don’t want something that’s only goes 10mph. So 25mph is roughly 45kmh so not bad of a speed for a daily commute of 10km (6mi) until the winter weather comes if so…
