HOW MUCH DOES A MONSTER ROXOR COST?

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Happy 4th of July everyone! Thanks to everyone that watches the channel and all of the nice comments and input, I truly do appreciate it. Take care! 💥💥💥

[@MrSlade62]

Just found your videos … enjoyed what you have done and id love to have what you built … love your property and enjoy your videos keep up the great work !

[@WoodsUnknown]

No comparison to any side by side hook em up to what ever u want, that Roxor is gonna pull them apart. Can't wait to buy mine. No plastic to break and no rubber band transmission to give a fella grey hair what a great machine.

[@trynsurviven2440]

There’s always gonna be haters. My dad taught me that if someone has something negative to say about what you built or bought, it means they are jealous of you. I really like your setup on that Roxor and maybe someday I’ll be able to build one. Thank you for sharing and hope you have a safe and Happy Independence Day.

[@BOSS-jf7on]

I really like your ROXOR. The details of your build and the cost were very informative. Thanks for sharing.

[@Rams34dixon]

I don’t think anyone being a keyboard will ever truly be in agreement. But I tell you what I love it! I like that you and your dad built it up and use it for everything. I think it just comes down to user preference as it is with cell phones. They do similarly things but everyone likes what they like. Keep at it and way too stay positive! 👍🏻

[@bullrambler]

Greetings R,W,&R my view is you built the Roxor for your needs (and mine). The only thing missing for us up here in Canada (at least for me) is an enclosed cab system with a heater and variable wiper - as our weather includes the cooler seasons with about 5 months of snow. And if this rig had a front PTO for a snow blower that would be the icing on the cake. As this could replace the need for a tractor in many applications. If you burn wood for heat - kindly show us a video where you haul out a trailer full of wood which would demonstrate a good sized load - and what it can do for towing. Thanks for sharing your upgrades and a useful cost analysis of the upgrades.

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Thanks for the comment and stopping by, yeah it doesnt stay too cold down here very often! Its 94 degrees (F) here now and I see some northern US states got snow already. Anyways, I dont know if it's what you're looking for, but I already have a video up from months back of pulling a trailer full of logs and brush when I was cleaning up around my shop.

[@WoodsUnknown]

Nicest Roxor on KZbin great job. Have you considered buying a roof and doors off a Mahindra Thar that would complete the woodrat

[@jadenkrosis3087]

Thanks for this video, currently doing my research to find what I want/need and I`m very glad I found this channel. SXS are great but I need a little heavier and more rugged sometimes so I went looking to see whats in between and found Roxor. But now after watching your channel and doing TONS of other research its kind of looking like Roxor can be upgraded such that it can cross over and do both of what I need~ some good old fun trail riding not too crazy but handle the tough spots and also, go to work for me when I need, handle that and last a long time.

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Glad I could help, thanks for watching!

[@gabeanderson927]

Thanks for keeping it real. Will be picking mine up Friday and taking it into Diesel Freak. Here in Mighty Michigan.

[@Wooskii1]

I really Appreciate you throwing the price out there, because I am interested in the Roxor. In my mind it's between swapping a diesel into a Jeep or starting with a Roxor... I think I am personally leaning towards an axle swap on the Roxor, maybe junkyard D44s? I would need to do alot of research/ measuring tho. Looking forward to more videos, if you keep putting them out, and the axles hold up, I'll probably be leaning towards using the stock axles. BTW, did you see the guy that build a Roxor w/ 40's and entered in KOH and a rock crawling event? Let me know if you want a link...

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

There Is dana 44s under the roxor they are Just re branded. I only changed the material of the actual axles, the stock ones are decently stout. I just didnt want to worry about any of it lol. And yeah that's Jesse haines rock crawler. It's a monster lol I dont think it's even a roxor anymore it's a frankenstein

[@Wooskii1]

@@RedWhiteRoxor I agree that thing is barely a Roxor anymore, but somehow it made it into the "stock" class... To be honest I completely forgot Roxor's have d44's LoL, but my thinking is that the d44 has been around forever and comes in different variants; HP or LP, ring gear sizes, and the JK era 44's are completely different than the TJ era 44s (I don't think it would be worth buying JK D44'S tho) so I would need to do the research to compare. Just an Idea I haven't really thought through yet (a Ford 8.8 might be a good width, cheap, easy to find and mod) The front axle is the tricky one🤔

[@superchargedadventures]

I'm Lovin the build!! She looks great and is gonna be one hell of a machine! But Dang!! Your making me very happy with my Joyner Trooper 1100c.c build.. -$10,500- (Brand new! with mechanical lockers stock!) -$1,200- Self-built amr 500 supercharger kit(all from ebay)(with fuel controller and AFR gauge) -$750 5 - 30" power F (big horn style)tires (Amazon) -$1,200 Fox air shocks all the way around -$250- led lights and light bars (ebay) GRAND TOTAL= $14,800 And the Joyner also has a car drive train and is able to be registered either street legal or as a UTV...

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

It's all a matter of preference I guess. I could care less to street legal this thing. I have a truck to drive on the road, and I've been there with that type of vehicle (rzr1000) and it looks like it has the same low strength materials used in the build

[@superchargedadventures]

First I want to say.. I really enjoyed the build of the Roxor! Something different than a major branded UTV! That's cheaper but of a high build quality, just like my rig! It's just that, to make it truly 4x4 capable, It took some outrageously priced aftermarket parts! That took the cheap right out of it.. Something I didn't expect I guess!! Now.. as to the Joyner! I have mine registered as a UTV! I know that "street legal" thing probably struck a chord because of all the Jeep talk in here!! LOL! But, I run the streets as little as possible! I don't want to spend $700 a year in offroad tires because I'm wearing them out on pavement! But as for the quality of a trooper!. There's no low strength materials or thin walled tubeing like a RzR. And unlike a RZR it's a full tube chassis. That's what makes it weigh 700 pounds more than RZR. Something I had to overcome with a supercharger to keep up with all the lighter C.V.T rigs.! And in my years of owning it.. I haven't met with a major branded UTV owner yet, that wasn't impressed by it.. and it's "heavy duty" like build quality!

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

@@superchargedadventures I understand what you're saying and I wasnt trying to insult you I just see things through a different lense now. Slow crawling stump pulling power is what has me hooked on this thing

[@superchargedadventures]

Right on! Me either man! Just wanted to show you and the other viewers another machine, they probably never heard of.. to show them that there's other options out there besides the expensive name brand ones. Enjoy that thing man its gonna be a blast for sure!! Can't wait to see some hardcore riding videos and I'll go to a meet up if you plan one in Indiana! LOL

[@rogermcnutt5057]

Thanks for the update on cost of things. love it

[@kalashnikov1343]

What exactly are the strengths? You said the main weakness was ground clearance. I imagine it isn't as athletic, or fast, but it seems closer to a tractor than a sxs, so it would have all the strengths of one as well, right? I assume the Diesel can pull a lot better than those little tubro motors the other brands offer.

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Just absolute rugged durability and raw power. Its a slower moving tank thats much harder to break. I have done zero maintenance to it in 2 years other than oil changes

[@mitrasookram851]

Its yours and you did an excellent job! Wish I had one just like it!

[@PondstompingAdventures]

Great info for people wanting to do upgrades and estimated cost. Excellent machine, play time now!

[@itsjusta2v198]

I can’t wait to get one I’m gonna get a base now just to find one

[@duckman5849]

I love your build man , don’t worry about what other people think. All that matters is you enjoy it. I’m either gonna sell my 93 YJ and get one of these or put a TB4 in it. I like these because there’s several off-road parks we used to go to with my rzr that are ATVs only

[@Wooskii1]

I think I have the same mindset. I would love to swap a Cummins R2.8 into a CJ7 to TJ era Jeep, but maybe starting with a Roxor is a better idea.

[@musician445]

The roxor got on my radar because of the price, potential for extreme reliability, diesel (i can fill it with my diesel storage tanks), and the fact that it doesn't have to be registered. It needs lockers, and it needs some lift for sure. I've never been interested in side by sides, they are toys in my eyes. They seem very capable, but i wouldn't trust my life to one in an emergency or SHTF scenario (while they still could be useful), i would trust the roxor because it is built like a jeep and made by a company that has made licensed flat fenders since the 40's. I've seen a couple reviews trying prove that isn't a side by side, but no shit, its not a side by side. And that's not what its supposed to be. Its supposed to be a cheaper, stripped down, ultra-reliable jeep that does things that the original flat fender jeeps were designed to do. Thats why i want one, and i don't want to have to rely on a dealer to do modifications or special maintenance on it. And honestly, you could probably shoehorn a chevy 350 in there if the diesel ever died and there was no more factory support for it.

[@fjnagle2nd]

Also wondering why an axle flip isn't part of or an option for lifting the Roxor. Seems like the easiest way to lift a Roxor.

[@scottcanam]

Sweet build. Love my RZR but a Roxor may be my next toy.

[@suryar7026]

Roxor it's not a Toy... it's a Tank

[@The-Jokes-on-You]

New to your Channel, but lots of good stuff! Great looking ride it's all about fun anyway (can't take it with you so might as well enjoy the ride) 👍 love the honest & transparent takes keep it up!

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Thanks for stopping by 😉

[@michaelmaddy278]

That may sound expensive, but go.pare that to a new jeep.that runs over $30,000 stock, you have a machine just as capable. Most people will spend more on a Jeep to fix up, or buy a razor just to trailer it to.play off road an you can't tow anything with it. I think you made a good choice, if I didn't have my YJ, I wouldn't mind having one fixed up like yours but with an automatic. That is one nice looking Roxor.

[@adamcousins2459]

I compare this to a brand new aftermarket reproduction cj7and with a turbo diesel too. You'd be well over 100k to build something comparable. These things are an absolute STEAL!

[@dcw1540]

Like the tractor in background

[@Darwindiggler]

Wow what a difference from when u first got it..i left off a long time ago wgen she was stock or your first few upgrade ..but dam now shes more mint than ever..sweet rig man

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Thanks, I appreciate it!

[@fjnagle2nd]

As far as re-tuning the ECU on these, do they come equipped with an ODBII port to allow tuning from a laptop? Just wondering as I am looking at one of these and would plan on making mine street legal in Pa.

[@adamcousins2459]

I believe they require a bespoke flashing interface as all the ones currently on the market require mailing the ecu.

[@sanddragger28]

I really like these Roxor. However, it isn't doing anything my Jeep JKU on 38s can't do. And Im street legal. No doubt tho they are cool.

[@kylescott4888]

Just ordered a side by side and discovered the roxor today. Heard the factory suspension is very stiff. I'm going on a hunting trip in Northern Canada and want a roxor. Any advise in lifts to smooth out the ride? If I can smooth it out, ill buy one today!

[@adamcousins2459]

I saw something about a front shack kit that flips the springs end for end improving bump steer while also increasing droop and softening the ride.

[@SPQR-Z]

29k isn’t bad at all for a new Jeep built out. Considering a new base Wrangler is nearly 29k and then you build it and your closer to 40 grand. I see 55-60 thousand new Jeep builds all the time. I considered a Roxor but wanted something street legal so bought a used TJ and built that out instead, but a new diesel Jeep for under 20k has great appeal

[@adamcousins2459]

These are stupid simple to make street legal in the contiguous 48.

You got one sick build, I have a Pioneer 500 with a lift, lockers, EPS, Gear reduction to turn 33" tractor tries. I feel like it performs well for the price. I've been looking at the Roxor & Jeeps, the Jeep just makes more sense to me, CJ, YJ, XJ, TJ, or JK..

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

The roxor isnt for everyone so I understand but I'm 100% content with my purchase over a jeep

[@TheCableGuy1981]

[@justinshearer9628]

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

You can get lockers from the factory, my build is an extreme version of that. Lol

@@RedWhiteRoxor spartan lockers are under 400 bucks. Missing factory lockers is a dumb reason not to buy imo

[@thedeere1012]

If i got one It'd probably just have more aggressive tires a tune lockers hitch and a winch bit i would buy it to work and do a little play

[@adamcousins2459]

I have a 117" wheelbase ford f150 with 235/75-15 wheels and tires, an open diff D44 in the front(almost identical to the roxor), and a factory ford limited slip in the rear, stock ride height, 5speed manual with 2speed transfer and 3.55 axle gears. It has no issues handling the only serious offroad trail in my state(Bald Mountain Jeep Trail). I would imagine the roxor with a 400 dollar spartan in the rear and slightly taller tires would run circles around my truck. That's as offroad capable as I will ever need a vehicle to be!

[@SToNeRJaY42o]

What sound bar do you have?

[@Hugeroost]

so 30k, wow, and you cant drive it down the street legally. I found a mint condition Samurai w 42k on it, looks damm near brand new, paid 8k for it. Gonna lift it, put wheels and tires, spice up the motor a bit, i'll be less then half of price of this Rox, and it's legal AND has AC and heat. It has the soft top and came w a new bikini top as well, there are still a bunch of em out there. I really dig this Rox i just cant put 30k in something i have to load up and haul somewhere to ride it, and i gotta have AC if possible, this is coolest one i've seen though...Roost

[@stam3334]

What would be the first upgrade you would do?

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Lift and tires. Makes the most difference of anything in my opinion. The tune is a huge addition too, but you can slap a lift and tires on and be more than capable to do some crawling/mudding.

It's nice but even with all the upgrades it could never out perform a Polaris 1000... The good thing is they are strong haulers for farm work and can be legally street driven if put insurance and plates on them... That's what they are in India but here they can't compete in the car market so some genius decided to market them as side by sides in the U.S...

[@RedWhiteRoxor]

Out perform it in what way lol? Thats a broad scope. No it cant do 70mph in the woods and dunes

[@biglucien6021]

Driving at full tilt and hitting those I believe I can fly jumps... You was to try and do that with a "Roxy" when you land you gonna Crack your bum hole or end up in the moon while your atv still on planet earth, Lol... You know with those joints you can do just about anything off road... Don't get me wrong I'm felling the Roxy you've been doing you with it... I'm not putting your Roxy down in any shape or form... I think putting some drop axles on it and doing some rock climbing like they do with the wranglers would be of the hook of a time with the Roxy's... Since she a torque monster not a speedster or a jumper she would just kill rock crawling especially since she can creep on low gear... She would destroy a Polaris or Honda rock crawling and she got crazy hauling power... I would be over landing like crazy, I would make my own tear drop mini trailer and would ripping all the trails with the wife... Sleeping in the trailer and making videos for the channel watching the viewer ship grow on me making the truck better as you test it on the trails... I'm gonna go buy one also the duty version with everything you have but with automatic transmission and no light bar I refuse to pay a 1g for it... The military green with all emblems it comes out to $24,000 in change plus I got to add the heater and a "THX2" Life force light bar on top and a rack...
