The world's greatest dad today. The joy of being a kid.

[@Ron-ds2ob]

Back 40+ years ago, me, by brother and sisters took turns towing a sled behind the Wheel Horse garden tractor, with everyone else fighting to stay on the sled while pushing everyone else off. Spent many hours doing that. This video brings back old school memories.

[@robertberry7194]

You are only the second person I have seen using snowshoes here in Pa!! I have a blast with mine. 3 sets to match conditions. The rtv's are a blast in the snow. Your kids are going to have great memories!!

[@lcee6592]

Fantastic fun! Those kids will remember being pulled around on their sleds forever. My dad pulled us around with a 1929 ford truck converted into a tractor by my grandfather. Still remember it like yesterday! Keep making memories with your kids!

[@earsmalloy]

Neil, you make fathers proud!

[@laprepper]

As a kid I've always fondly remembered trips to Tahoe. As an adult I realize how expensive it is!!

[@denisewildfortune4058]

Awesome! Thanks for taking us along on a joyous day with the family!

[@bobpurs]

Great fun Neil love watching the kids have fun👍❄️

[@j34707]

I am about 40 miles south of you. Really wished I had a windshield on my Sidekick today. Lil cold on the face playing in the snow.

[@amywright2243]

Great memories! Happy holidays to you and the Messick crew!

[@thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849]

Can I just be adopted into the Messick family??? That looks like a blast! In all seriousness, your kids are adorable, and God Bless the entire Messick family and all of their employees during this beautiful Christmas season. I'm so glad I discovered your channel and have had the good fortune to meet you and your staff! 💪🙏🇺🇸

During last week's winter freeze in east Texas, we were out on our 2018 Sidekick 850, turning off water and checking for leaks on other properties. We picked up neighbors and ferried them between homes. We added the skid plate to the front, which skied over the snow. We also had the throttle peddle upgrade installed, which really helped low speed control. Started up right up and ran like a champ.

[@ericjames5163]

Another excellent product evaluation and a fun way to have a good time and explain the different tools for different jobs.

[@PennyRockStomper]

My dad used to pull us behind one of our Olivers. We had a blast!

[@markrossi2326]

What a great time with the kids. Brings back really good memories of my youth. We used snowmobile's or snow machines. We had a blast! Thanks for the video. Merry Christmas

[@DonSherman]

Looks like you had a blast with the kiddos, good for you!

[@hphillips7425]

Good video glad the kids are having fun.

[@FromSteelToWood]

I am jealous you got snow!!! Thanks for sharing a day outdoor with us!

[@SLCFarms]

Thanks for bringing us along. Really easy just to forget about the camera and I enjoy these videos as much as the ones at the store.

[@dougshrader7721]

In my day if you wanted to sled down the hill you walked up the hill carrying the sled. Today's kids have no clue how easy they have it.

[@zachsonne8734]

You think that all kids are getting shuttled up and down a hill with a utv? NOPE! You old people try to ruin everything. Let these kids have fun.

[@TheSnakeman3]

What a blast with the kids Neil.

[@bradw3313]

Nice, fun time. Our equivalent in south Texas was riding in small trailer behind riding mower when Dad mowed.

[@BG-vq9fd]

Looks like fun. Lucky kids and dad.

[@ryanrosehorsemanship]

You do an outstanding job with these videos 👍

[@jimathey6153]

OLD LEATHER SMITH here, I really appreciate your Videos Neil, I have learned a LOT, I WOULD LIKE 2 WISH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A SAFE AND HEALTHY NEW YEAR GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃

[@SingleBottomBoys]

Great video!!

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

I think accessory #1 would be a windshield. ;-)

[@bulletsandbacon4440]

We had a Kubota diesel side by side at work one winter and the windshield got knocked out by a “snowball”. So we operated it with hard hats and face shields until the windshield got replaced.

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

@@bulletsandbacon4440 Ohhhhh, that must have sucked. I’ve been pretty lucky with mine, that glass is pretty tough.

[@bulletsandbacon4440]

@@JimsEquipmentShed haha yes it did. It sounded like a shotgun in the cab when the safety glass exploded. Those machines are tough though

[@JimsEquipmentShed]

@@bulletsandbacon4440 Bummer, I’ve lost side Windows before, but never a windshield.

[@Morpheen999]

RTV-1100 full Cab, with tracks.. now that is a winter vehicle.. The hours fly by in that machine...

[@jh9855]

Great fun!

[@jthomp997]

Gosh I wish the Pacific northwest would get a good snow storm like this. Looks like a lot of fun

[@OhArchie]

Watch your tongue 🙂

[@LeMecanoDuDimanche]

I wont show this to my 10 years old daughter because here we dont get snow at all, except a little bit every 7 years... thanks for sharing !

[@johnking1428]

Great fun in snow, but I don't want to work in it, I will stay here in SOUTH ALABAMA,!! Have a great time,and Merry Christmas!

[@terrymcgillicuddy8056]

Nice buggy. Looks like you guys got plenty of snow Early this year.

[@mikemichaels1875]

Fun day!

[@inthewoods5640]

Daddy time is the best time!

[@andrewholtzman5235]

Great video. Your other videos on this machine helped me make my mind up for the purchase, so thank you for that. Can you tell me the max size of tires and rims on these machines, if you install the lift kit?

[@JoelSherwood]

best kubota videos on the net! how does this unit work with the boss V plow? can you do the video ?

[@justindavis1546]

Thank you for the fun video... even if it does end up being an informative one :-)

[@waydeblank2375]

Can you guys show me how to hook up a snowplow. We always have trouble

[@terryroop4198]

Do your brakes squeak? Mine do, just wondering if that's natural. Thx!

[@deeman3084]

How about belt bark? Is that just part of owning an 850? Just took procession of a 2022 an it makes the bark with only 5 miles on it. Thanks in advance for any insight.

[@steveholton4130]

Neil, you can't help - you were born into it. We won't make quit your job. sdh in CT

[@goldenkangaroo4969]

What Brand of snow shoes are those??? THEY LOOK SWEET👍

[@laprepper]

Enjoy, or power slides and donuts 😂🤣😁

[@fishingwithtimmy]

Being a carburetor model(non fuel injection) how does it start after sitting in the cold(sub 20 degrees) for a couple weeks? My current Arctic Cat is very difficult to start.

[@MessicksEquip]

No carb. It's EFI. Starts easy. Benefits from a few seconds to warm once running.

[@N98858]

Hey Neil... "Fun Day" with the Kids! Can that XH850 be outfitted with a Snow-Plow? Or are the Diesels better for that application? Thanks~Mike...

[@MessicksEquip]

You can put a plow on it. The diesels would out push it.

[@tomoaktree4951]

Hi Neil, On your Kubota Sidekick 850, I'd like some info in the shelf behind the cab. Is there one available for a 2013 RTV 900XT? Great, fun, video!

[@MessicksEquip]

www.artillian.com/products/utv-mount-attachments/

[@unclebuck5051]

Eureka!

[@calebdiefendorf6102]

Is the sidekick available with fully enclosed cab with heat?

[@dananderson8254]

Yep

[@williammackey7243]

Can you put a K-Connect on the front of the RTV-X1140? I have one and I want to put the front snow blower on it. Pls&Tnk you

[@MessicksEquip]

No.

[@Volcker1929]

Great video, sure looks like a lot of fun. I don't think you need to worry about KZbin affecting your brain unless you start doing makeup tutorials 😳

[@franknabywaniec1438]

I got 45 inches of snow here

[@myronyoshioka8742]

you sold me on the sidekick....

[@rosslumayko5182]

🇨🇦👍❄️

[@dhoop688]

Lol. Yup

[@dhoop688]

Dad duties are fun too

[@sizemorec1]

Windshield

[@cleonmain1291]

Tire chains

[@trev583]

Great fun. Did similar with my kids years ago. Watch out for the safety nazis!

[@derekdreke4990]

Haha buy's lift kit and with wheels and tires still not as good as a Ranger 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@barbmccoy5727]

Wish ours would start, have a plow on ours.. but it never starts!!! Biggest piece of crap.. wish I would of kept the Polaris... It always started..

[@MessicksEquip]

Nearly certain it's a fuel issue. Mine starts with 2' of snow piled on top of it. I store it outside.
