Yep I’m buying 1 as soon as my house sells! That thing gets up and goes for a workhorse!! Glad I came across this video and thank you for posting it!

[@iridemotorbikes]

Looks like a great UTV! Thanks for the mini review. 😎👍🏼

[@northerntoyota7584]

I like how these have payloads higher than midsized trucks. I would wager they have vastly different criteria to meet to get those numbers.

[@evoemperor3776]

The only way you can't fit the maximum payload on that small bed is to stack hollow blocks

[@1guyin10]

There is a big difference between hauling 2000 lbs at 15 mph and safely hauling it at 70 mph. My Defender is also rated to tow 2500 lbs, but only in low range.

Good video Andre. Now compare it to the Yamaha Viking, Kawasaki Mule etc. Then talk about the different belt drives pluses and minuses of each. Keep the great content coming!

[@billythekid7237]

Nothing beats Japanese engineering! Kawasaki all the way!

[@danielsmith8659]

You’d figure after all this time , they would have perfected the belt system with Polaris . Especially Polaris considering they were the first automatic atvs on the market….. nope , they still have problems. Not as many , but I can confidently say between Yamaha , Kawasaki, etc…. Polaris has a lot of issues, can-am probably takes the cake for the most issues , however that doesn’t excuse Polaris they’ve been doing it longer , not much of an excuse on their part…. And then you have Honda …. No belts and no problems

[@regishaw1098]

I just wanted to mention that I have a 2021 Polaris Ranger 1000, and the bed capacity is actually 1000 #, not 1500#. I really like the one I have. It has given me no problems whatsoever since I bought it last year. Great video, btw. 👍

Glad you like it! I just ordered a Ranger XP Premium 1000 Trail Boss

[@davidcampbell4130]

I have a 2012 750 ranger that does 47 mph. I paid 5400 bucks. Super clean! No thanks. Has basically all same options. The main diff i c is i like cup holders. Steering wheel looks exact same

[@bcrich07]

It's usually 1000 in the dump box and 500 for passengers and gear so 1500 combined

[@DJ_Underwood]

Bed is shock assisted

[@Synic08]

If the load is equal, its kinda like a seesaw, and the shock is there to help on the side you WANT to go up.

[@BillWorden]

I really like all the TFL channels, but holy cow! What are you using for a mic? The wind noise was horrible. Couldn't watch the whole video. A 'dead cat' mic cover or even a lavalier mic might help.

[@hillbillygaragecs2921]

Mine would run 75 mph but I done a 15% gear reduction now 61 mph top speed but I have a dynojet programer on mine tho I use it for hunting purposes only.

[@1guyin10]

Looks to be electronically limited. Several of their models are limited to 56 mph. Mechanically it should be able to do more. My HD8 Defender will do more than that.

Not a 2021 model. It's a 2020 model. Only a couple of changes between 20 and 21, and the engine specs stay the same. But definitely a 2020.

[@RobertKohut]

I think it's 2 wheel drive open diff. Then 2 wheel drive locked diff and finally 4 wheel drive. (not 1 wheel drive, LOL)

[@bradenwuesthoff5639]

Yes open diff, polaris calls it turf mode so it doesnt leave tire marks on concrete like as if it were in locked 2wd

[@1guyin10]

That's correct. A locked diff doesn't just tear up grass, but will eat tires like mad if you drive it on pavement.

[@CraigSmith568]

Having a speedometer with a second speedometer seems a bit odd.

[@TFLoffroad]

Yes, you can select what appears in the second gauge, like RPM or other parameters.

[@CraigSmith568]

@@TFLoffroad It just seemed odd that one of the choices was a speedometer when you already had that on the screen.

[@itchyprince3793]

Is that actually one wheel drive? Or is it just unlocking the diff?

[@danbskyguy]

Yes one wheel drive.

[@1guyin10]

Turf Mode is one wheel drive - which is accomplished by unlocking the rear differential.

Not really a fan of the gas sxs work horses have you checked out bobcats sxs diesel.

Get the 1000 xp ranger if you want a top speed of 70 mph and more capabilities

[@SHAFLOXKSEBK_OFFICIAL]

Idk about the rav 4 trd

[@joet.4756]

Are those partial windshields effective? Thanks, good video.

[@1guyin10]

Somewhat. They deflect most of the wind and dust over an average height driver. It's a good option in a dusty environment. A full windshield will cause a backdraft that will suck dust and engine heat into the cab. If you run a full windshield you also have to run a rear window or it will be a miserable experience.

@@1guyin10 Thank you that helps allot. I am 6'7 and pretty fat lol. Thanks!

[@martyi398]

Thanks for sharing, Belt drive? Polaris and others can do better than this for reliability nothing like worrying about shredding a belt while out on the trail having fun

[@itchyprince3793]

Almost every sxs ever made (besides YXZ and Talon) are belt drive. And under normal operating conditions and proper maintenance they actually aren’t that bad.

[@ChadBrundy]

We drive our Ranger every day, use it for work, trails, etc.... One belt replacement in 4 years

[@1guyin10]

Two years on my Defender with no belt issues - and I tow a trailer regularly. My buddy's Viking is going on six years with the same belt. It's the guys that run insane tires and beat them hard that smoke belts.

[@brocksutliff8782]

My cousin has a shaft driven pioneer and he’s the one that told me to go ranger or canam. The throttle is real jerky and is annoying hauling heavy loads over his hills to take hay to his cows. But it does run good. He said the belt drives are tough.

I find those blinkers useless personally. If you're gonna install them, at least use some decently sized lights instead of some dinky LEDs.

[@truspirit1925]

I had a 570 2013 and loved it. I have a 2023 ranger now which I also like alot. The 570 seemed quicker from a dead stop but the dealer told me that the 1000 ranger is governed down 15 to 20% they said polaris does that for engine protection. The 1000 of coarse has way better torque but flat out running speed it's pretty close. The 570 had 44 hp and the 1000 has 62 and the weight differance also has alot to do with it but the 570 topped out at 50 and I believe the 1000 I have will do 60 to 65 but I haven't tried it yet.

Not sure why your speed is so low. Have a 2020 Northstar Ultimate 1000 CC that does 60-65 MPH.

[@1guyin10]

It has to be electronically limited. That is the same speed the standard two row models are limited to.

[@OMRS1]

Because yours has the bigger 1000cc motor. For 2020+ model year rangers there’s to versions of the 1000cc motors. They got rid of the ranger 900 which is now the base model ranger 1000 with a single overhead cam(SOHC).The higher end models like yours have the dual over head cam(DOHC) engines so it makes more power and obviously that’s why it goes the full 65mph which is governed and can do way more with a tune.
