  • There are a lot of reviews of things on youtube. What a lot of people don't realize is that many of the reviewers are paid or sponsored by the creator of the product. I pride myself on giving you honest reviews of anything I purchase or research. FYI, you may not agree with it, but it's my review not yours! So, if you're in the market, this is the first review, I'm going to do a 6 month review soon (this video was actually from when I first purchased it.)

    Great review. I have a 2016 4010 purchased new and never regretted it. You should see all the stuff I have in the front storage bay: booster cables, 3 tow straps/slings, ratchet straps, tools etc. The drum brakes take a while to break in, when I first got mine I just about had to stand on the pedal to get it to stop quickly. The engine braking on the Mule is pretty good though. One of the things I really like is that it is so easy to get in and out of the Mule. I bought an aftermarket Mossy Oak seat cover as I have a dog that loves to ride with me. I have outfitted mine with a 3500# winch, an electric/hydraulic bed lift and a soft cab for winter. I bought a Ice Crusher heater for it last year but haven't got it installed yet. I have 42 acres and run all over it in all types of weather conditions with no problem. I would be nice if they went 35 mph but 20-25 is enough with 2-3 inches of suspension travel. The mules are built like a tank, you can fit a lot of stuff in that big cargo box and I drive mine practically every day. The only gripe I have about mine and you may have discovered this is the oil dipstick gets condensation on it and will rust. I have had to replace mine when it was about three years old. If they made the dipstick short and oriented vertically instead of that super long horizontal run I think that would have eliminated that problem. The rubber stopper portion of the dipstick will eventually come loose. I recommend measuring the distance between it and the loop and making a note of it in your owners manual. That is the only problem I have had with mine.

      Awesome vehicle! I agree, for the money, can't ask for anything better!

      I bought one of these for an apartment complex, and about to order another 4 seater 4010. I love how simple and tough these are, and they look awesome. Very utilitarian.
      The dipstick used to be short on the older models, but people complained about having to lift the seat to access it. I recommend fogging oil to keep it from rusting.

    I love the 36 month warranty. When I was in college back in the 70s, I worked as a Kawasaki motorcycle mechanic. Kawasaki's are built like tanks. They take a lickin and keep on tickin.... Great review. Thanks RT

    This was a great review. I wanted to see the dash and workings. I actually pick mine up this week. Getting excited to put it to work. I owned a 610xc. Reliable but way under powered for what I needed. So. Looking forward to the extra 200+cc.

    Thanks for the review ! Weird thing is that I have mobility issues as well ! Been paralyzed from the waist down since birth. I've had a john deere gator TX, and a Honda pioneer 1000. One oddball question is , how is the seat height ? I tend to venture away from my vehicle at times , and since I can't walk , I'll be pulling myself up from the ground. I was going to buy another gator , but saw these. I used to work at a Kawi dealership , and only seen the Mules come in for service. Oil changes, and an air filter swap , and they went out the door . Great reliability and durability.

      Seat is a bit high, especially for wheelchair users to transfer! The bench seat though is a bit easier for Brax to navigate! Thanks again, praying you keep on enjoying the outdoors!

    In the videos I have seen, the Honda 500 was LOUD. And the Mule seems quiet! Is it as quiet as it seems?
