Today we are going over the RTV-X1100C side by side from Kubota! B&T MacFarlane Ottawa LTD. 45 Slack Road, Nepean ON. sales@btmacfarlane.com 613-225-0555
I bought my X1100C a little over 3 years ago. I also have a Polaris Ranger diesel that I bought 12 years ago (no cab, heat or AC). I paid twice as much for the X1100C, but it's worth it to me. I use the machines in the woods for firewood and around my farm hauling everything. The cab on the X1100C can make a big difference in southern Minnesota. The X1100C weighs about twice what the Ranger weighs and is an absolute workhorse. The Ranger is built lightweight by comparison. I've put 1150 hours (3400 miles) on the X1100C and have had no issues yet. I've just followed the prescribed maintanance schedule. My Ranger has about 1200 hours on it and drivetrain issues including damage to the rear differntial mount and differential. One feature not mentioned in the video is a front winch mount above the front hitch. I added a 4500 lb winch and that made it pretty easy. I also added LED worklights on top in the front and rear. The wiring is already in place, so I just had to add two switches and the lights. That was also very easy. I use the front and rear hitches extensively. I had to add both a front hitch and front winch mount to my Ranger, so there were extra costs involved with the Ranger that standard with the X1100C. As mentioned, one downside of the X1100C is that the top speed is about 25 mph, but that's not an issue for me. I use it on a 125 acre property and get around just fine. The top speed on the Ranger diesel is about 40 mph. The only other minor issue is that the throttle lock doesn't really hold like it does for most tractors. There may be an adjustment for that, but it never really mattered to me.
Curious about your comment in the video regarding how with the snowblower it isn't very effective? From what I've seen on other RUclips videos seems pretty effective to me with decent throwing distances. Maybe if you don't use the set idle to max speed then I could see it not throwing very far. I believe you said the payload is 1600lbs, I believe the correct number is 500kg or 1100lbs.
I use this machine for the past 2 months and has broke down 4 times with the blower. It can't handle heavy snow . The gears have broke . Better off with a blade and cutting edge. Take my advise or enjoy not being able to get parts and constant break downs

Hi, do you need to where your helmet in this Kubota 1100C to be legally used on a local trail or back road?
Nice. If I ever get through the gator hole I'm buying one.
Wonder what the cost be indifference after you put a aftermarket cab versus one of these
