I’m landing on buying my first toy/side by side. I’ll be using it to take the grandkids for rides out at the cabin. I’ve decided to go with Defender Limited. I do plan on waiting a little while to see if there are any changes for 2024
Can am need to make a x mr limited, all the good of the xmr and the full doors and heating / air-conditioning ect of the limited.... I would buy that... at the moment I can't find the perfect set-up love the xmr and the limited but not buying 2 😂
You seem to be very knowledgeable on these things. I’m considering a 22 Pro Limited. Can’t find any reliable information on what’s changed in 2023 for that model. I know the max had forward arms and bigger stock tires and new improved doors but am looking for help with the Pro Limited. Do you have any suggestions on where I can look or do you know off hand ? I appreciate your honest reviews and your top shelf class of content on your channel. Thank you !
Hola Rocky, es precioso tu vehículo yo tengo uno casi igual Can am Traxter H10 y estoy muy contento me gusta mucho el XRM pero en España no se comercializa. Que lo disfrutes
He mirado tus vídeos me gustan las puertas que llevas en tu Can am te agradecería que me dijeras el modelo para ponerlas yo en el mio, si me facilitas un correo puedo enviarte fotos de mi Can am. Gracias Un saludo, Ramon
Great comparison of the three models. I'm interested in a CAB model and was hooked on the Lone Star until you mentioned that if you had to start over - you might go with a Limited and then replace the top w/ an AudioFormz Level 5. I like this idea for at least three reasons - 1.) No additional amps to buy, 2.) No Additional Sub to buy taking up room under your rear seat and 3.) Integrated Lighting. That being said - have you looked at the ThumperFab Level Four or Five? I like the aluminum construction and the Light Setup looks to be first class. Also - what would you do with the stock roof?
I know I have had audioformz and it is the best I have seen. I have not had thumperfab so I cannot compare. One thing I failed to mention in the video also is that JL roof is thin plastic and not insulated. Your hvac will perform better with a true mdf roof. Not sure on stock roof…
@@RockyRohde - looks like East Texas is the hotbed for SxS audio roofs. AudioFormz in Canton, ThumperFab in Marshall and ProBox in Kaufman. I'm up in Northwest AR after 36 years in Dallas. Going to see if I can take a trip down there and check out these roofs in person.
I have a couple of questions about this can am with cab ac, 1. What is the maximum speed of this can am? 2. How stable is it for the weight of the cab? 3. Can this can am be used to go to the mountains the same as an x3 or a commander? 4. If this can am turns over, would the windows of its doors break? 5. Could you cross rivers without ruining the ac? 6. Can this can am go where a defender xmr goes?
1. Stock they run about 60-65 2. They are stable.. the cab does not really add weight to the top. 3.I’m sure it can be used in the mountains but will have a different center of gravity than x3 or commander. 4. If you flip it yes I’m sure the windows would break… 5. Water will mud up the ac condenser… not recommended for boat use.. lift it and get above water or buy XMR. 6. Yes and no… XMR is lighter and has a front locker… upgrades can be done to the other…
@@RockyRohde Thank you for your answers, they help me a lot to make the decision of what to buy, I like your videos and the honest opinion you give about your experiences, keep going, you have one more follower on your channel.
@@RockyRohde those are excellent points. I could only imagine how hot the plastic roof makes the inside of the cab. I really appreciate your time and replies, it helps me out a lot. Great channel btw.
This does OK without portals..? Forgive maybe the newbie question, but thinking about going with one of these over a RZR. Not sure if I’d need portals to run 35s…?
Does the place that did you tint have the Template Available or can you tell me who did it? Should be getting my unit in a month but want to book the tint.
@@puzle9 any tint installer worth hiring isnt gonna have a template around, they hand cut it on the window. Honestly sounds like a bigger headache to try and line up a precut vs just follow the lip of the window with a razor.
IMO, all they need to do is add a Nav/infotainment screen and boom, kiss of death. Polaris is loud AF. I just got done test driving the Xpedition, for the price, the noise is unacceptable.
@nathaniellyon4855 I test drove the expedition also.. If it was priced more online with canam I could see around the issues and noise being one of them.. The premium you pay for the expedition it should be ready to go..
@@RockyRohde I'm literally watching one of your videos as you responded to me. LOL. Yeah, Polaris has always been loud. I had a 2019 Ranger XP 1000 Northstar Edition, Full cab and etc. Going down the road at 40mph you couldn't have a conversation with the person next to you. I've got a 2024 Fiery Red HD10 Limited Max coming. I am super pumped to get that baby home! One more quick question. Have you looked at somehow adding locks to your doors?
@nathaniellyon4855 I purchased the Camlocker tool box and just put my stuff in it and lock it.. I also installed dss system and Monimoto gps security.. if motion is detected on my machine and key fob is not present it will call my phone continuously. The Monimoto is self powered and is going to take someone a long time to find it lol…
@nathaniellyon4855 The canam is super quiet.. I can leave it running with ac on all day… I do like the expedition.. If Polaris will insulate it better and fix clutching from the factory I will buy..
I have a daughter with cerebral palsy and epilepsy. She is sensitive to heat so the ac cab allows us to take her on more outings. She loves to ride around on our property. The ability to use it year round is important. We also take it to parks and ride. Everyone has different reasons for the equipment they own.
I’ve seen snorkels on a long star that’s around $1,000 with install and this is what I’m going to do for the 2023 thanks for your video
Awesome machine and beautiful property!
Thanks!

WOW, I can't believe how quiet it is in the cab when you were driving!
Yeah they are nice!!
Nice shop next to the house!!
Thanks!

Buy the limited and add xmr stuff

I have not seen any 23’s yet or researched them.. Thanks for watching!
Awesome setup
Thanks!
You’ve inspired me to buy one, the lonestar is a difficult one to find. Might have to order and wait 😞
The limited with Audioformz is what I would order if you want a good sound system..
@@RockyRohde is yours lifted?

Absolutely beautiful 😍

Really cool machine there! Where did you get the phone holder?
Start with the dash cluster and the hvac system head unit.

Just starting this video and I have a feeling which one you will choose..
If I was re ordering it would be the limited…

Hey, just wondering how they are in terms of cold weather. Like, we’re talking -15 ish Fahrenheit. Minnesota’s brutal temp-wise! Thanks
When it’s 15 here in texas which is not to often it will burn you out of the cab…
Anyone have a video on Corbin custom signal kit install for lone star 2024?
In your opinion, do you think the lone star is worth the extra money and why? Thanks and sweet setup.
Get the limited and add audioformz top
@@RockyRohde great. Thanks for letting me know.
I spent a fortune upgrading that JL top and it’s still not close to audioformz.. plus the plastic let’s to much heat in from the sun..
@@RockyRohde those are excellent points. I could only imagine how hot the plastic roof makes the inside of the cab. I really appreciate your time and replies, it helps me out a lot. Great channel btw.

A set of forward arms and clutching can run 35’s no prob..
Thanks
Did you have to pay shipping and assembly? Polaris wants 3700 for shipping and assembly.
I think mine was 750+750 freight and assy.. Cab models dealer just has to bolt on front bumper.. it is what it is lol
Nice unit. Have you had any issues with the driver's side window? Ours started acting up with colder temps recently, only 30 hrs.
No issues with window. Just cold start issues.. it’s at the dealer now..
I heard the window switches go out all the time. I wish they would give you an option for manual roll down windows.
Hi in from Venezuela
What are those side mirrors? Do they fold in?
Canam and yes they fold
Do you plan on keeping this or selling later on to get a limited?
I’m keeping it
Does the place that did you tint have the Template Available or can you tell me who did it? Should be getting my unit in a month but want to book the tint.
House of tint in Victoria did it.. they hand cut.. search canam defender nation group on Facebook. A guy in the group is selling precut..
@@RockyRohde Thanks for the info, will have a look.
@@puzle9 any tint installer worth hiring isnt gonna have a template around, they hand cut it on the window. Honestly sounds like a bigger headache to try and line up a precut vs just follow the lip of the window with a razor.
@@OKLAHOMA_47 Thanks that is what I have come to the conclusion, still waiting on unit to ship, thanks for the reply.
What flares are those. I want them for mine!
What size wheels and tires are you running
35” boggers and 20” fuel reaction wheels
Does the limited have diff lock like the xmr?
Rear not front
The 2024 models have smart Lok like the XMR models now.👌
What phone holder do u use
Nice unit, we have one and our roof and rear window leaks real bad, does yours? I have two friends with the same units and there’s leak also.
Doors have to be adjusted from the factory.. haven't heard much about the roof leaking if anything heard its improved since last model
Yeah I add weed some weatherstrip.. all good now
Do you know if anyone has any for sale?
Lots of dealers have them..
What phone holder mount do you have?
Wireless ram mount charger
If canam wants to beat Polaris, canam must make or do something that is totally different from Polaris..

This vichel India sale agency and supply contact number
Why not just buy a used jeep? Probably cheaper.
We have a 392 Rubicon
@@RockyRohde so why do you need the Canam? I have a pioneer for my property because it’s lighter than a car
