[@UTVDriver]

Thanks for watching!

I have a can am defender 6x6 and have wheeled extensively with it. Every time I show up looking to wheel with folks, oftentimes with 100k + jeep rigs, they look at me like “whut….you bringin your farm vehicle up this?” Within 10 minutes after I effortlessly glide over obstacles they were caught up on for 5 minutes….their expressions change very quickly 😂 Lots of vids of me wheeling it on my channel if ya wanna see/invest into a new “farm rig”.

[@UTVDriver]

That's what we like to see.

Great video.

Man my Scrambler XP1000 S makes a Jeep look silly and even most SXS but it's highly modified for hill climbing 58"wide 70" wheelbase . The main reason it does so great 14" suspension travel, the engine is in the front with additional wight and a 3/16" steel skid plate welded to frame, relocated the battery to the lower frame and 27x11x14 XTR tires. Highlifter transmission gear reduction and 32×10x14 Roxxilla sticky coming. (75" wheelbase maybe for better down hill because it's so front heavy it can go up anything but coming back down is a little different. ) PS give me that cheap SXS and I can make it into a Munster.

i hear it every day with the price of sxs being so high right now "i can buy a jeep for that" i explain this right here is why they dont compare but yet every calls me an idiot and says the jeeps better. they are obviously clueless

[@andrewchan9925]

Great video! You guys are absolutely correct on the subject in hand. I'm actually currently debating on which way to go. Funny thing is I already own both, I have a 97' TJ that is currently in the midst of being build with 40s for extreme rock crawling and a Honda pioneer 1000 that I've and recently took to go wheeling with. I'm debating on if I should scrape the Jeep build and sell it for a new SXS instead (something that's more capable than my Honda).

[@rickslaughter47]

I wanted to see a wrangler. Right like a real jeep versus sxs. This isn't that.

[@jason2090]

Last time I checked it says jeep

[@drew4769]

Wouldn't make a difference

[@michaelburrows8323]

I have to ask, what is "next to nothing?" Because $10,000 is not next to nothing to me. I like the idea of $3000 on an older 4x4 that you stay dry in the mud puddles and warm when it snows. I'm watching this because I can't decide and can't find a used sxs less than $15k

[@wg5768]

Defenders are impressive.

[@BillyBobTup]

What is a "Tuk-Tuk"?

[@rossco5995]

For 50k you could have bought a near new truck, trailer and had 15k left over for a real jeep. Hell, a geo tracker with lockers could have out wheeled both of those.

[@UTVDriver]

Oh man, we love a challenge. Bring us your Trackers, your Samurais, your huddled Land Cruisers. We'll put the Tuk against 'em all.

[@Dreamscythe1]

your dreaming, imagine if they had a real long travel sport sxs and not a beat up stock utility machine. altho im confident the stock utility machine can out wheel all of those
