Why did you guys select an X3 for the base? Seems like a Defender or Ranger would have been nearly as capable while significantly increasing your ability to haul and tow equipment. I suspect the increased capacities would far outweigh the (unneeded?) performance benefit of a sport UTV. Also, are you within the payload limits for that rig? With all of that weight on the back, I question whether it would be stable at speed. Very cool build, but I definitely have some questions.
Hooty - This type of build is aimed at border patrol units that are required to cover a lot of ground in a patrol or respond quickly when needed. A utility machine is not suited for that type of mission. As for the machine being able to handle the weight it being stable at speed neither are an issue. This unit is not a trailer queen and it has been tested extensively with a full patrol load on asphalt, fire roads, technical trails and in the dunes without issue. Heck we even drag raced with it at Silver Lake Sand Dunes with 4 people in the car and surprised a bunch of folks with some wins!
Is this the base model x3 max with the 64 inch width ? Was wondering if I purchased a 64 inch instead of the 72 and just put some offset wheels on it to a get a little more stance and be able to load better in my enclose trailer . Because the 72 inch only gives you a few inches to play with.
Very cool machine. What about police option for the northern states that is in closed and heated! I agree with the one guy about reversing the shocks and not even a first aid kit. But very cool machine
Do you have a POC for that John Cook Sheet metal that builds that box? That would be great for a stock unit. Would fit just under the spare tire and lockable.
Awesome rig!! I would have invested in a lift or portals though to get some clearance in that long of a ride. High center on a speed bump. At that length you need a minimum of 24” of clearance or you’re hanging on every bump. Very nice build though other than that.
I guarantee those wheels make it dumpster like crazy. And then you put four people in the car and it sits on the ground needs a shock therapy spring kit
I've seen where the border patrol that travels the US/Mexico border uses Ford Raptors and 4-wheelers. I'm sure that this is cheaper than a Raptor but I just don't see it being used a lot during the extreme hot parts of the summer down there. Why not allow the citizens that live down there help patrol those areas, especially if it goes through their property. Go back to the way the old west was where the property owners could judge the people that was trespassing. I live in Louisiana and have had several people trespass on our property
@@shawndejong6699 so what did Terra Tech do again? Oh shit! I see it now. They added decals to the side of the door. I guarantee this will only be ran off the trailer that's the only time this machine will get use. How about we build for the Coast Guard or Military not law enforcement. It will never get used. Thanks for spending my tax money I paid in guys. Way to go.
Generally they're used for media events, and police awareness events. Police also actively participate in the snowmobile and atv communities. So poker runs, charity runs etc this thing will no doubt see a good deal of use. Do I agree with the expenditure? Not so much, however I do see the need for it. Whether it be community events or running down drunk riders etc.
Moose On a JuiceBox - This build is privately owned and privately funded, not one penny of your money was spent on this project. The unit was built to this extreme to showcase the products we use and the companies we recommend all in one machine. The graphics on the side of the UTV are for our company and don’t have any government markings for local, state or federal agencies so I’m not sure why you assumed otherwise?
Moose On a JuiceBox - Yup that’s all we did was add decals??? Go down to a dealership and take a look at a stock unit.... do you see a aluminum bed, a custom patrol box, custom cage and roof, weapons mounts, a winch, skid plates, 32 inch tires, infra red driving lights, Rigid Lights, custom bumper, Yoshimira exhaust, nerf bars, mirrors, touch screen GPS, stereo, race radio, C02 air system, military antenna, blackout lighting, Line X coating and a Factor 55 winch hook? Oh and I almost forgot the one thing you did notice, custom graphics and logos.
One of the coolest X3 builds I have ever seen! I would have loved to have this when I was a sheriff's deputy in rural Missouri.
No first aid or AED? You might want to add some actual safety features instead of being worried if you can see the fox shocks.
That’s something I’m saving up on for the all new can I am maverick X3 4 seater can’t wait to get it
If i get to cruise in this all day then where do i find the application for border control at????
I love this thing !!!
They built this to patrol the Canadian border..... There afraid we might invade and steal a gallon of maple syrup.
Wow who approved that spending budget??

Great video
Wud like something simple done for dealing with mass casualties and disaster rescue
i dont care if its necesary or not. this is fucking awesome
I guarantee those wheels make it dumpster like crazy. And then you put four people in the car and it sits on the ground needs a shock therapy spring kit
And why do they feel the need to have that?
Anyone know where to get that bed?
Very interesting safety first
Love it
It needs a M60 on the roof
Dave Smith M134 mini-gun 😎
Despicable Me right here lol
I think someone should tell that Mike guy, that his shirt does not fit.... Bro, definitely step up to the next size LMAO
Looks great but sits to low for mudding
Not built for mudding

Stacy Reid Canadian border not Mexico
"bolt ons" & "designed" don't belong in the same sentence. You literally ordered stuff out of a catalog.
How much???
Is this a four seater or two seater?
4
Did you seriously say you run blue guns so you don't "excite people". WOW... that's pretty damn telling of how weak and sheltered humanity has become.
Come on Stephen you can't see the back seat? Rewind the tape.
Looks like tax payer's money went to a good cause.... Not! Must be nice huh? $40k machine at least.
30k+ taxes and 10k in parts... yeah 45k+ you're not far off.

The price of these things is getting out of hand. You're better off getting a Jeep. Jeep accessories are much cheaper. Cool mirrors though.
Why would you not show the lights and everything in action....waste of 12 min
More farkles for them to be able to catch you
who the fuck pays for this?! oh wait...
Heard law, backed out of video. got a dislike.
