Can-Am Maverick X3 XRS Max takes on the Rubicon Trail

We brought our four-seat X3 Max on the Rubicon Trail so we could haul lots of gear during our camping trip. Check out how it performs!

Enjoyed your video. Looked like a fantastic time... Nice to know It's, can handle tough trails..

[@theonlyDougBlack]

Incredible! Testament to your driving skills! Love seeing these trip type videos!!!

[@davidweston1551]

Saw group at Springs July 28,29. We were 2 Jeeps nearby the campground directly across stream. Had welder if you were that group.

[@kevingoodrich3050]

Nice video... looks like everyone was had a great time

[@dagsterblaster4973]

I got same rig and already 10k more into it. The stock is woefully weak... the A arm and Radius especially. Nice video editing. I too make vids of canam but mostly dirt bikes.

[@timkuitems4431]

Did you have any YXZ's on this trip? Have you been around any YXZ's at all? Do you have an opinion of them? This is my first watch of your channel. I apologize if my inquiry is premature. UTV's as Jeeps is where I'm at too. Love the video.

[@quad_maps]

Nice video! Where i could see the track of your journey?

Do SXS’s dominate the Rubicon these days?

[@UTVGuide101]

Buy&Hold Nope, but there are more and more every year.

[@iRIDE279]

Love the video. Glad your Maverick did OK. But, the question I could use an answer to is, HOW did the KRX do?

[@UTVGuide101]

They did great. Follow Rugged Radios on social for more details.

[@iRIDE279]

@@UTVGuide101 yeah I don't do Facebook. I'll see if my wife can bring it up.

[@Hammerdownproductions]

Love the video Jon. Great seeing these long wheel base vehicles being as capable as the two seaters. Love the overland style setup. Looked like a nice easy going laid back kinda trip. Great job bud.

[@mikecooley3361]

Dare I even ask about how much total is invested there? I'm guessing around 45k as shown including the original purchase.

[@UTVGuide101]

You are pretty close.

[@mikecooley3361]

@@UTVGuide101 don't know how you guys do it, awesome cars, rigs and trailers. I'm just trying to be able to afford the car, have the rest (not as nice but will definitely haul the car). Lots have changed in the game since my old 900 4.

[@mikecooley3361]

Also, have someone check Facebook messages

[@hawksiamable]

Nice.. I like your set up and your videos. I live in Reno iv done the Rubicon many times in jeeps. I was thinking of setting up my Max to handle the Con. 👍

[@IWNTYU]

Thats a lot of weight for that drive belt

Hey boss, love this vid. I am curious if you did any clutching to your Max with the 35's?

[@UTVGuide101]

Stock clutch

[@Lawncology]

@@UTVGuide101 very cool. Thank you!

[@JBMCricket]

Cool video, thanks. Very capable on that trail. Have you done a front gusset kit? And how necessary do you think it is on these? Looking into going down the rabbit hole with an X3 X RS Max. Thanks.

[@UTVGuide101]

Yes. HCR front gusset kit.

[@VJStroud]

How much money to modify it like yours?

[@UTVGuide101]

We did it piecemeal so it was easier to swallow. haven't added it all up.

[@uazbuchanka2206]

Best sport or hobby to invest any buck you can.

[@jacoblnash]

Is there anywhere to dispersed camp around the trailhead or is it all BLM campgrounds?

[@UTVGuide101]

It'sBetterOutside You can camp at the helipad near the Chalet

[@NolimitracingRC]

When is next trip

[@frankiemarquez8596]

Now that’s a hell of a trip!!!!

[@UTVGuide101]

We are spoiled because it is so close. But we rarely camp on the trail so this was a big trip for us.

[@frankiemarquez8596]

I just goggled it 21 hrs from Westexas! Thanks for the video it looks awesome

[@UTVGuide101]

Frankie Marquez There was a group of Land Cruisers in front of us at one point from New Jersey!

[@frankiemarquez8596]

Wow you got to love it

[@downbytheriver501]

This video feels like one giant advertisement for 30 different products.

[@UTVGuide101]

Not many people would think a 4 seat Max would do so well on this trail and that is why we documented it. And instead of answering lots of questions, we try and tell you what products are on the vehicle. Sorry if that sounds like too much of an advertisement too you.

[@kurtmcmichael2045]

That’s awesome. How would a two seater RC do as a beginner ?

[@UTVGuide101]

Two seater is a better crawler for the Rubicon

UTV Guide thank you

[@eastcoastrebels5882]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@ratgo1205]

Idk if I should get a 4 seater or 2

[@uspnightfire115]

I’ve read a lot of people seem to like the 4 seaters due to the stability and cushier ride compared to the shorter wheelbase 2 seater (at least in the West/Southwest and not rock crawling). I’m in the Southwest so I’d be doing a lot of dunes/desert/open area without much real rock crawling. Would you recommend a 4 seater for that rather than a 2 seater?

[@UTVGuide101]

4 seat is awesome in the dunes and desert

[@SierraCreative]

@@UTVGuide101 would you say an X3 is capable for trail riding like in Southern Sierra’s - aka Mammoth, CA ?

[@dank3823]

That thing is sick.

[@NolimitracingRC]

When is next trip

[@UTVGuide101]

We will probably have our Max back in the dunes in February

[@towtyler4598]

Does your assault industries tire carrier fit your full size 35” spare tire? I run 33” RT320 tires on my XRS turbo RR and haven’t found any spare tire carrier option unless I go custom work

[@UTVGuide101]

Eric Kennedy Pretty sure a 35” would fit, but that is a 33” tire on the rack.

[@erickennedy9487]

UTV Guide awesome thanks for the info I’ll check out that option
