    I bought a 4010 4X4 in 2016, it does everything I need it to. The Trans Mules are good transport vehicles, particularly on farms. They still offer the 4010 Mule trans 4x4 in 2024 line up.

    I wish Kawasaki would do something better to improve the engine crank case venting into the throttle body. Gums up the sensors over time. Kawasaki gave me a upgrade vent box and throttle body but the problem came back within 2 years

    Great honest review. Was very surprised to see this video pop up! I follow your channel for your other content but actually work as an engineer at Kawasaki in Lincoln, Nebraska where these (and almost all of Kawasaki's 4 wheel recreational and utility vehicles) are made.
    I hope this machine treats you well and look forward to follow up review videos. And as a side bar comment, Kawasaki does offer a hydraulic actuator accessory to dump the bed when full of material (firewood in your case) haha.

    Really enjoyed this video! I've been looking around for another utv for farm work. It looks like it would work well. We have a Honda big red and a Polaris razor. We bought the razor used, it was priced right, but it's made solely for play. It's uncomfortable to get in and out of a lot. The box is too small and too shallow to haul anything that isn't strapped down. If it gets dusty at all where you are at, you eat a ton of dirt if you have a windshield because of how the air drafts around the sides. If you get one that goes fast, get a model that is fully sealed from the outside, with A/C, or you will want to wear dirtbike helmets and goggles to protect you from all the dust. If you are looking for something just to buzz around and ride just for fun, I think the razor would work well for that.

    I bought the 2023 4010 4x4 EPS Mule for my 40 acre farm. I think it's one of the best SxSs on the market for serious/hard use. I also like that it's more of a tool than a toy, won't feel as bad beating it up.

    I have a 2018 4010 SE. it’s been good overall but I need to take the throttle body apart and clean it. The emissions control recirculates the crankcase breather through the throttle body. I disconnected and now vent to atmosphere. This is my opinion was a failure by the engineers designing the emission control. I now wish I had opted for the diesel.

    • @HughButler-lb6zs
      @HughButler-lb6zs 7 месяцев назад

      If you don't know what you are doing, when cleaning the throttle body, you can do some costly damage to the butterfly valves. I didn't buy a Mule to work.on it, but to work with it.

    Kawasaki makes junk. I have a Mule 4010 and it will not idle. It has engine issues and you have to take it back to the dealer annually to have the throttle body cleaned. This works for 2 or 3 months then it's back to stalling. The thing that pisses me off is they knew they had this problem when they sold it to me. That is General Motors culture.

    • @kevinkiser9553
      @kevinkiser9553 6 месяцев назад +2

      Your dealer sucks if that’s the case. This is one of the most dependable utvs. I’ve had them all for government work. We have fleets of all brands and the mule 4010 are hard to kill. Not the fastest or ride the best but run forever. None of them like ethanol fuel, especially if you don’t run them daily. Dealers will tell you they will take ethanol fuel don’t listen to them. Ive replaced fuel pumps on a dozen of them and the filters are always yellow or brown from water from ethanol. Once the pumps drop below 50ish psi idle stops. Harbor freight sells a fuel injection test kit for $35 with multiple fittings to test all kinds of stuff. When my dealer told me they thought that was the problem they wanted $800 to replace a pump, I bought the kit to confirm their diagnosis. It was correct, so I bought the aftermarket kit from all balls and put it in in less than 30 minutes and no more problems after 3 years so far.

      So why would I replace it? The fuel pump works fine. When you clean the throttle body. It cures the problem temporarily. If it was the fuel pump, cleaning the throttle body would do no good.

I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla with 200,000 miles and never have problems with it. It idles just fine. I.would drive it to Fairbanks Alaska because it is dependable. But owning a utility vehicle that stalls at idle is very annoying

      What year model is yours? It looks like the crankcase venting was changed beginning with 2019. My 2019 is at over 2,000 hours and not ever any running problems. Only thing was a relay for the electro-hydraulic bed lift that failed and cost about $5 to replace.
