Hey everybody! Winch update: Following this video, the Ranger sat in a dry garage for one week, and when I returned to it the winch was working properly and has been ever since.
In the next instalment of the series, we'll take a deep dive into the winch, including trying to figure out what went wrong. Thanks for the feedback and stay tuned!
I'll send you one of my prototype ATV'S for testing one-day.
So they must not be using warn winches. If the solenoids are not sealed thats absolutely brutal. Is it a polaris brand winch?
WATER WIN.!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ლ( ｡◕‿◕｡ )ლ
instablaster.
looked for the video but didnt see it. What was the conclusion with the winch?
TFL should give you a raise. Great job on this video. I don't even care about ATVs, it was just entertaining to watch.
I agree this is great! yep real world.
"Steven is going for his ANNUAL bath!" LOL
This is the only TFL channel i really enjoy anymore. 👍
I enjoy this content so much more than the most other shows out these days. Best stuff since Doug Meyer and ATVTV. Great work Stephen (and Dad). Thank you, Roman. Keep it up!
Really good segment, guys! I'm a Honda Talon owner, but I still love the utility side x sides. This one looks great, other than that pesky winch situation. I'm sure that'll get properly sorted. Please let us know what you find.
As always, thanks much for sharing.
BTW - I'm from Oklahoma, where we've been socked in with crazy rain, flooding and tornadoes this spring. But, I've got to say, I think I'd rather deal with our weather than your BLACK FLIES!
Steve
How can you just sit there with all them bugs around you... Like it's nothing... Geez, I'd be in a hazmat suit...
Normal for Canadians in the bush this time of year unless its really dry. lol You either get used to it or dose yourself in DET. It probably explains the heavy safety coat. It's probably not to hot for that when he filmed this. Personally I carry a bugs mesh to go over my hat when it gets too bad. It really only truly sucks when you get horse flies mixed in with them. F**k those things.
It's just flies. They don't bite, sure they're annoying but they don't bite.
@@faded039 what flies don't bite? There's quite a few types of fly's that do bite.
@@jacobking4106 i don't think the flies that you can see in the vid are the ones that bite. Either way if they did bite I think he'd be smart enough to record somewhere else or wear protective clothing or insect repellent.
Sometimes u need to just nut up and live life. Id rather live in the woods w bugs and flys than a city full of Democrats anyday
This guy seems to always give a fair and balanced review. Other channels sound like 15 minute commercials. Saying that, I was impressed with the XP.
My 2000 Kawasaki mule 2510 had a built in snorkel that was stock and it didn’t need a belt vent. It has a v twin that’s like a 500 cc and low enough gearing to pull out a stick Jeep. And it’s all stock. Don’t know why it’s such a huge deal that a new SxS that’s a special addition has a snorkel which is “so cool”
Thanks again, I’m just beginning my search for a side x side. Your videos have educated a lot!
My dad bought one of these and I use it to get around town. It's fun 😂
just paid cash for the 2020 Crew Backcountry, my first side by side. having the dealer upgrade to 30" Blackwater EVO's, and went ahead and enclosed it and added heat for the Alaskan winters. I am super excited to get this thing.
When is Mahindra gonna give y'all a long term Roxor? I'd be awesome to see in in these conditions.
Usually I really enjoy your videos, however you need to be in low when your going slow. You will smoke the belt by slipping it being in high and putting a high load on it. Please dont be one of those guys that blows a belt and then slams Polaris because you didnt read the owners manual. The belts will last thousands of miles if you keep the SxS in the correct gear for the conditions.
FRANK RUSS totally agree I’ve had 2 Polaris’s and never had any issue out of either of them. My friend has a 900 ranger that has almost 4000 miles on it. He just recently had to do ball joints and only 2 belts
Ah black fly season the only thing possibly more annoying than mosquitos. lol. Especially when you get the bloody horse flies mixed in with the bunch. Dear god those things hurt.
Awesome video! I've been watching you for awhile don't think I have commented. I have a 2019 XP Ranger 1000 Northstar, and now I just got a 2019 XP900. Good to know that these are quality machines! Thanks for the nice videos.
Backwoods seems more well rounded. You can comfortably trail ride or do some light mudding. Awesome machine
Great video as always, love how your dad eggs you on. Good times.
Is this guy the kid off of bad santa? Haha 😂
Yeah they are fun but 20k is a lot of cash. I feel they are way over priced a new Mustang is 25k
@@Eyespyd hope you have lots of fun with it.
@@Eyespyd yeah i went 4 a 2013 with doors and heat for $5k but im a poor boy watch my channel for proof!
Precisely why I just bought a new Kawasaki Mule Mx Pro for 10995$ CDN. It can do everything for a fraction of the price and a longer guarantee.
The moral of this story?? Test your equipment before every trip.
I'd recommend you test everything on a new machine where you are warm (relatively) safe and dry BEFORE you start torture-testing the machine. That winch might not have worked on Day 1. :)
@@jedironin380 Exactly!! I'm betting it didn't work before Polaris dropped it off.
@@thelongdaysofwheeling124 The winch was working fine that same morning.
The good news: it seems to be working fine again! Stay tuned for more video updates.
@@TFLoffroad You know that saying though... Fool me once...
Get the Talon. All our Polaris bought new were nightmares to keep running.
Hondas ride rough, Polaris rides smooth.
Polaris looks A LOT better, than Hondas do.
Дмитрий Лебедев your such a tool
It’s crazy you literally get paid to beat the hell out of these machines lmao 😂 I’d love to do this. Great vids man keep up the good work!!!
Great video man absolutely great real world test keep the good work up hope to see your channel grow
It’s Canada. It comes with biting bugs.
Great video! “Went thru it 20 years ago…” - hilarious!😂
What would have been a bit of a panic is if that Polaris had rolled over when in the lake, and our Stephen seat belted in!!
I mean by roll over, is those tires have super flotation and the Polaris with driver would have been top heavy so a floating roll over could easily happen.
Reg Sparkes those tires couldn’t float him.
I'm not here to criticize, but Reg Sparkes is 100% right. Unbuckle when you get in water that deep. Always have an escape plan! Great video tho!
@@riverrat306 Cheers Joey,...and that was my line of thinking here.
@@wonderful8293 So we will have to agree to disagree here.
This was probably the best review video ive ever seen in my life! Dont see those dirt trax guys driving in a lake! Hahahah
Also never see them say anything bad about Polaris lol
@@myopinionsandotherthings1399 haha good point!
My Opinions And Other Things cause they’re secretly sponsored by Polaris. If you have to pay people money not to speak up about your products problems then maybe it’s not good enough
It don’t matter if the winch remote didn’t work there is free spool and then you could use the remote that is connected in the cab
I have a xp1000 except it’s the 20th anniversary version
有一点浮水能力不错了，多多鼓励，将来研究出浮游功能，一定要买来用。
Bet he didn't need to eat that day. Breathing like he dose with black flys in Ontario he definitely ate multiple in this video lol
Is your Ranger still rocking and rolling??? Feeling good? I’m getting one soon😎
Your winch quit working because the fuse on the bottom of the box underneath your hood loses connection. Mine does the same thing
Need to ride with Ostacruiser
Why is there a push mower in the middle of nowhere on the trail
Yea Polaris said that all the electronics are sealed up up to the snorkels. *Backs into lake and headlights are above water still and only one works*
Nope. Headlights are switched off. That is the sun reflection on the lens that you see.
I haven't seen any real off-road vidéos of the Escape Hybrid and it's belt and câbles.
Has Polaris improved their reliability? That`s why I got a JD Gator instead...
If that ranger was really stuck it would have dragged the ATV to it
Great video! This is your calling.
Does it come with a snorkle
What is the top speed for the backcountry?
8:07 great demonstration👌🏻 if I had the money I would buy one tomorrow
Great Video 👌👍
I wanna see a review on the 2021 xp1000 trail boss please...
How did that fuel tank snout handle that deep water ? Wouldnt the vent fill with water? Did it get water in the fuel tank?
Where is the fuel tank vent line and the diff and trans vent line cause goin that deep in the water would make me wonder if fuel tank or diff would fill with water
Consider putting a water bottle 1/2 pull to give viewer a sense of sooth ride.
Why are you using hear gear? Should always be in low unless going high speed.
Shouldn’t cruise or should o say go threw mud in high more work for the belt and will wear it out faster
trying to find your next episode on why the winch failed..can you send link or give me name of video to search it. thanks
Really nice Buddy!
has there been an episode 2 yet?
Was the winch working before it went under water ??
Yep.
Update us on the winch!!!
Update posted above. Basically, it's all good now! Just started working properly on its own. We'll take a look next video and try and figure out what went wrong.
So how did you get a HL kit? Did y’all get each piece or is there a kit available
Spring! Gezz we're halfway through the summer on the 50th parallel in #Canada. Why are you still in that sissy Liberal Black Fly infested Province that gets flooded after the deep freeze and here I had one week of -10°c 2018/2019.
Free country I ride alone all the time but have all sorts of communications winches tools and guns.
What's the hydroline is that were the water pump is for your house
Neil Murphy hydroline is referring to power line we get hydro electric power, that’s why it’s called hydro line. The hydro line has a cleared trail following the line.
Great review
This is where numbers would be nice 3:05.
Ummmm lawn mower at 4:00 ???
Did you check the batteries on the remote? lol Also it doesn't have a wired control? That seems ify. I don't know if I would get a winch without a wired control cause you can always depend on batteries to be dead when you really need something.
My general had a button in the center for the winch so I bought the remote the other day it was working intermittently not sure why have to check the batteries I've liked my remote on my Ranger with the cable I got the remote so I could fairlead the cable back in evenly kind of dumb just having one button on the dash
Side by side to big for most trails what are they for the farm?
That is exactly what they're for! Farms, construction sites, line workers, etc.
I find I can fit my sxs down most quad trails. A little tight on the less used ones, some rubbing.
Why not have a rope and winch hooked up already to drag you out if need be
does the backcountry ed. have a selectable rear diff? I know the highlifter is locked in the rear only. id like the selectable option with snorkels.
1:41 in and I remember what I hated about Ontario.
awesome video
I mean… cool you can go to 3 ft of water… but even if i could, i probably would never do that.
I would love to have this model but I need to know do you have a piece that covers the whole ride as far as the driver basically like a hood on a car in case it rain you won't get wet and how much is the cost on this getting back with me
I want to be ready
That was hilarious watching you in the Ranger just sinking in the lake 😂😂!! Totally loved how you were so concerned about swimming out 🤣🤣 fun video!!
so did it last through the summer?
Come on! WHO actually NEEDS a ‘snorkel’ system....just a WASTE of money, for people who burn it
i like them for a different reason. Helps keep mice out of the air filters.
Good stuff.
Put some trucks through the water stuff
With all the advanced UTVs out there, one could only hope Polaris will finally get on board and make a decent product. Snowmobiles aside, I’ve never worked on them so I can’t voice my opinion weather or not they’re good or bad? But Polaris ATVs and UTVs are far from being a decent product.
People, please don’t drink the Polaris koolaid
Next long term John Deere XUV835??
What’s the benefit of having a rear mounted engine?
Moves the heat away from the passengers.
Get a fan and the black flies will leave you alone. A large one, At least while you are standing still and filming.
Rangers a lot of money or me just poor?
Ranger 570 2 & 3 seater start at about 11000 + tax Canadian with rebates. Pretty competitive I'd say.
Too bad Polaris can't design batteries in good spots...that battery is going to discharge so fast 🤣🤣🤣
Is the winch a Polaris winch if not it has nothing to with the sxs
Sure it does. It was chosen by Polaris and also installed by them. It's on Polaris to ensure it works for it's intended purpose.
@@rhull3939 I have to disagree
@@dustinmittel348 for what reason? Do you realize how many different car components are made by different manufacturers? When something fails on a vehicle, you blame the car company, right?
@@rhull3939 do you know that this isn't a car ?
It's a winch built by a different company and added it really has nothing to do with the vehicle Mobility getting stuck is in you
I need one of these
Do you play war hammer?
Just get a Sherp and be done with it.
“tRaAaAcTiOn”
T2w i looked around in omr
Take the seat belt off don't want to drown when in deep water never put seat belt on
Nice
take it to kb moto and Quebec.
Has no longevity. Does not hold up to ranching. Spends more time back at dealership than actually getting to use it. Probably a fine machine for getting the mail I'd you live in town. Worst side by side I've ever owned and I've had them all but a can am and it will be soon
This is BS I have one and time it rains it will not pull out of its track
Holy mosquito Batman!
Can am maverick x3 Xmr is steal better
Not even in the same class...so what was the point of the comment.
Haha your old man set you up
Dude was scared shitless and it wasn’t even close to the snorkels 👎🏻 I’ve been up to my neck before that was nothing
I have a 2020 Ranger 1000 and I have 1 large design flaw. I'm 290lbs and they have the gas tank on the driver side. That is another dumb engineer that is not thinking!
Go on a diet
Take off seat belt in deep water just in case
