Excellent video. I'm looking to buy one of these primarily for farm use hauling and towing. What is out there to strengthen the drive train and get more power out of the HD10? Gratitude for the input as I'm new to the Can Am and belt-driven world. Is it me, or does it already look like the bed / back of this UTV sags lower than the front. I would ideally like some factory rake with the back a little higher than the rear so that she don't sag under load. I'll add a rear 1-2" lift to solve this problem if I end up buying this jabronie.

Is that Adam Sandler?

[@dkorobov]

It’s a shame they put a steel cable winch on it. Nylon is superior in so many ways. One more thing I had to replace on a new vehicle.

[@ianhastings8685]

Why does he have auto tune?😂😂

[@cryptkeyper]

I think they are oddly ugly. With that said, I just bought one. Wife hates the look. But it can haul sheetrock, wood, a smaller atv (whatcha the weight), and mine has the dump bed that is electric lift by button. And for camping, build a cage on the bed and by the smaller truck mount tents that come out the sides.

So basically he didnt ACTUALLY describe any real features except to say "and this is the very best out there" or similar. Compare and contrast to let people know why a component is better than the competitor's machine. Nice unit, but didnt learn much about it thanks to the car salesman that read a few bullet points he saw on a brochure 👎

[@jisbell911]

well....he's a salesman. He did his best to make plastic, headlights, a dashboard and a roof sound extra fancy. Kind of bummed that the bed is only tilted by a gas shock rather than a hyraulic ram. Huge mistep by can-am in my opinion. The rated payload must be low.

[@chuckwicksimmons5813]

Not really everything you said is true. but if they were to come out with that this year what would they do for next year's model. Also theyll be coming out with what you said for it in 2023 model .for what you said needed to change. And also be prepared for the price to go up to!!

Isn’t this a 2020 pro XT? The 21s have power bed lift and slightly different seats.
