This Mule ain't no joke...best utility SXS hands down...if you own a farm this is the machine for you.
As I'm sure you know, Kawasaki has greatly improved the new 2024 model. I'm seriously considering purchasing one. I value your opinion!
Appreciate that so much. If we can get one of these to evaluate, I promise we won't let you down.
Just pick my 2024 yesterday, I look at a lot of UTV's, this was the one I thought would be best choice for our place, FXT Ranch Platiuim
Best review I've found for this machine. Thank you.
That looks fantastic. I need to open up trails in an untouched forest and maybe drag some logs around, this looks like a perfect bushwhacking SxS.
That engine is used in a lot of other UTVs. It's a relatively common engine in South America, Africa and of course Asia. There's an 1100cc version used in other UTVs, too.
All the mules I've seen have a storage bin under the front seat. I do agree however that the front seat should be on a hinge rather than cables.
They do, but it's like 5 gallons volume but there's probably another 20 gallons volume of wasted space.
Would love to see a review on the Teryx!
Thanks for sharing this video!
Thanks for the review. Looks like these fetch a much lower price on the used market than the Honda Pioneer 1000. If you were going to load up a family of 5 and hit the trails in Colorado and Utah, which would you pick?
Have you done a review on the 2024 Mule Pro FXR LE?
We haven't had a Mule in a few seasons. Hoping we can get one soon. They're a great machine.
What’s up with the engine not being Kawasaki?
A Kawasaki engine is why I would buy one.
The engine is outstanding.
Most engines in ANY UTV or Tractor for that matter is made by a different manufacturer. This has been common for decades now. Even 1970's John Deeres were Made in Germany and they are still running today.
I would say its about 50/50. The Kawasaki Teryx is a Kawasaki 750. I believe every single model Honda or Yamaha make uses one of their own motors (and they also make great motors).
It’s the specs and design that matter. Not where the building is.
could you possibly do a review on the mule sx 4x4 xc (the blue model) and see how it is for pure utility?
There is no front diff lock just rear. I test drove one before I bought my new Polaris ranger
Quick question. Local Law Enforcement buggy headlights and aux power are out on Kawasaki Pro FXT. I can't find a good diagram to try to help them fix it. They have a low budget and covid closed their maintenance down. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
This is a great review...you said, "it has front locking diff and unlocking rear" but is that correct? Does the Mule have the option for both front and rear differential locking?
Thanks, seriously considering a purchase.
I own one and I'm 99% sure the differential lock is only for the rear axle, most mass produced vehicles never have a factory front diff lock since if left locked it would make it a huge road hazard since it drastically affects steering and handling on pavement of the vehicle, unlike a locked rear end which is bad for the tires but doesn't affect handling that much.
@@RPG-oh1yf Many SxS have a full locking front diff. Both of my Yamaha's have it. It does make turning nearly impossible when engaged, but its only meant to be used in extreme low traction situations. I am not familiar enough with Mule to know if it also has a front locker.
How fast is it with passengers and gear
Wow.. he said locking front diff??? 1st time ive seen them miss the specs…
U guys own a skidsteer
How's the fuel economy
We are getting over 20 mpg.
@@MFTgal That's better than my pickup gets on the highway!
How Kawasaki can let these leave the factory without turn signals is bewildering.
99% of people who buy them use them on farms and ranches, not for road legal use. It's likely just a cost analysis from the manufacturer, manufacturers do this all the time.
Totally agree on the turn signals not sure what they were thinking.
What's the top speed on one of these?
47
First transgender, now trans cabs? Where has this world gone
So stupid….
Cherry Chinese engine company, BLOWS! What drives me crazy is these infomercials always having people put on their "safety" helmets. Panzy corporate regulations.
This is a fantastic motor. And your phone was made in China so stop that none sense. It’s the specs from the designer that count
Agreed. The helmet wearing in this ad is beyond ridiculous
These guys are in Ontario. If they’re on OFATV trails helmets are mandatory
mine seems a liuttle slow to get up to speed
This does not have a locker in the front....
Hello
سلام
LOL - lose the helmets it ruins the ad
Chinese made engine kinda defeats the point of buying a Japanese sxs. This is the same engine put in the poorly built Chinese white label sxs's.
that same exact Cherry engine has been in the john deere gator 825i for almost 10 years now with little to no problems, so id say they're tried and true.
My buddy now has 18000 km on it. That is correct just oil changes what a great engine.
@@shawnhanniman8597 nice to hear he had a good experience. Current price for these machines in the states is over $16k. For the same price you can buy a Hyundai Accent. It has power windows, power locks, doors, Apple car play, AC, air bags, 130hp, windows, 6 speed manual, 100k mile warranty, etc. I guess what I am saying is; for that kind of dough I am expecting a bit more than a sub $1k engine mated to a snowmobile clutch. Not judging anybody who is happy with theirs, I just feel like if we don’t demand more as consumers the industry will continue to increase price and decrease quality. I know they can’t fix inflation, but there are ways to provide quality at lower prices.
Amazing engine
Pecker!
