That's a sweet rig. I picked up a used kubota rtv1100 a couple years back but was looking at the mules,Polaris, and Hondas. Almost pulled the trigger on the Honda pioneer but ended up finding the kubota for a good deal. Kubota is a nice work horse with hydraulics and a hydraulic dump but it's definitely not made for trail riding like your kawi or the others.
Maybe you and Sarah can weld up a custom dump body for it this winter? LOL Watching this makes me want one. I enjoy the traditional ATV's, we have several & have resisted the SxS but I like what you have Andy...Yamaha is my brand of choice but have a few Kawasaki engines, they are great! 👍
Looks like a upgrade for the farm. Nice little trip around the woods. Oh come on 3 foot drift??? You got a winch.. a winch and about 300 hp tractor to hook it to... lol
One of the things we carry with us when we go into the woods or around the edges of fields is our Milwaukee battery powered 18" chainsaw and sometimes we'll bring our Milwaukee pole saw for those "widow makers". Take care Andy and family/crew.
The Kevlar type of rope for winch is very nice compared to metal cable when dealing with accidental back wrapping particularly if a blade is on front of the unit. Having the heated cab will come in handy on cooler snowy days.
That doesn't seem like a replacement for the Gator. It's like trading a work pickup for an Escalade. Similar but not interchangeable. It is a rig and has many bells and whistles! Thanks Andy.
Give Andrew an hour, and he will have everything figured out. Andrew seems to have good spatial awareness. He drove through the woods without hitting anything, a lot better than most adults could. The BIG question is,.....will it pop wheelies like the e-bikes?!?! (Ha!Ha!)
That is a very nice addition. Andrew will be glad to take it over. He is a good young man. That weather.sure looks miserable and.makes shop days better. :)
I have so many questions lol... Mary and I looked at a Polaris Ranger in NH around late fall, I'm going to trade one ATV off for one. I didn't pull the trigger yet because I'm on my 3d Polaris now and not really too impressed with the quality of the newer ones.. so then I looked at CF moto but havent checked out the kawis yet. You like it still?
I have a Kawasaki mule 1000pro. Use the machine for work and pleasure. We go to tug hill and run. We also run the trails in West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Been amazing
i tried one of those but my knees hit the dash, those come fully equipped unlike the can am defenders that some of the things on yours is standard. i had a defender limited several years ago. my neighbor bought a new 2024 defender last week for 30.000 bucks. sxs have come a long way. its legal to put them on the road in my state now.
Congrats guys !! To the victors go the spoils. Noone works harder than mr Andy. I wish you would have ceramic coated it while new in the shop. Great job filming it though!
Might be a good idea to get some seat covers for it even though i know it’s a farm tool not a pavement princess . It would still suck to get grease and what not all over the seats . I believe it would have electric power steering also like most atvs and sxs . doesn’t take power steering fluid
Hey Andy, Just home from the hospital. I had a heartache Sunday evening. I am ok now. Spent the week in the hospital with all of the no sleeping in the room. Need to get together soon to see how many tools I can get together for you >…? Hope you are doing well? JM
Never owned any of their ATV or UTV but always was of the opinion they made the best small engines on the planet. In my mind Kawasaki is right there with Yamaha, might not be the absolute fastest or flashiest but when the Polaris and can ams are falling apart and blown up the Kawasakis and Yamahas will still be running strong. I’d say it would be pretty hard to buy a better machine than that and it looks awesome on top of it.
Andy we took delivery of a new RZR in mid summer and it’s the high output 1000. So we decided to do what you and Andrew are doing and between hey hold my beer and watch this we barreled rolled 3 times and went endowe 1 time when shit finally come to a end we realized it had a lot more than we thought it did
Very nice. Did milk prices spike 20%? These list at $35,000 plus destination or 70 ton of milk. We just had a $30k vet bill so no kaw side by side and when we die I guess we get thrown in the shit pile! Ha! We just bought a $600 gator like your old one. Starter, glow plugs its great. Just needs suspension. Theres 1 thing that'll rust steel as quick as NYS roadsalt&brine yup cowshit!
Andrew Don't know how u live In that snow. It was 43 ° C here yesterday. Hot but better than freezing. It's 17/12/2024. Merry Christmas to you and your extended family from Airgen Energy Pty Ltd. Melbourne Victoria Australia and a Happy New Year for 2025.
I think that the Kawasaki will get more hours on it than the Gator as Andrew will be using it for off roading and I’m sure he will get plenty of use out of that winch as well.
So, this is for the wife to do yard work? Does she ever come to the shop? Miss the holiday dinner livestreams but they chased everyone from the kitchen.
These things seem impressive 'for what they are' until you see a price tag. Then it's less wow this go kart is a lot like a car and more like this go kart costs as much as a car!
@@steveb6103 Depends where you live. There are some towns in WV where you will see more side x sides than cars/trucks on the street and they are fully street legal. Probably not the case in NY though 😊
NICE, father son bonding, the thing memories are made of. He will never learn those things in school. Thanks Andy.
Good looking maching Andy. Im sure the kids will have some fun with it.

Had a 2019 Kawasaki Teryx I put 4000 miles on and it was rock solid with trail riding and snow plowing. Nice unit there!
You and your family have a Merry Christmas and Happy new year be safe and healthy
Great unit Andy! I'm sure your wife will enjoy the heat and AC that unit is equipped with.
Nice looking ATV Andy , big boys and their toys .
Your gona love the ridge , Kawasaki makes a great product , use ours on farm all the time, mounted a snow plow also
Maybe you and Sarah can weld up a custom dump body for it this winter? LOL

Great upgrade to the fleet

the Kawasaki is a very solid ATV
Andy , it has the same steering wheel squeak as my 2021 mule !!! Kind of surprised
That a nice Christmas present for her ac an heat you have to put the lift cylinder on for the bed, time to look for mobile column lift system 👍🚜
Looks good Andy have a great day.
Wife won't miss it on a zero day or a 90° day . That kow is a beautiful ride . TAKE CARE AND STAY WARM !!!
The Kawasakis are some of the best out there. Sounds like the deere treated you well also.
Nice ride Andy. Momma might need to hide the key 😂
That's a sweet sxs Andy, should work great, usually Garmin makes gps an cameras, not sure what that is, it's definitely a radio, thanks for sharing
Another good one Andy 👍
That doesn't seem like a replacement for the Gator. It's like trading a work pickup for an Escalade. Similar but not interchangeable. It is a rig and has many bells and whistles! Thanks Andy.
Smart man, taking care of your wife. She deserves it.
Good evening Andy, Happy Holidays to you and your family.
You have a very nice machine and I hope your family like it 😊

Glad to see you breaking it in the right way.
Nice machine good to have heat and air !
A Christmas toy all can enjoy. Thanks for the ride.
That Kawasaki is a nifty little piece of kit. Good rise with you and Andreww.
Hi Andy !
beautiful Kawa !
your wife should be very happy , Andrew is happy.
Thanks for your time and have a good day everyone !
🙋♂️

Look like alot of fun

Yeah I like it a lot
The Kawis are very nice and dependable machines. The.Japanese build nice stuff. Honda, Toyota, Suzuki, Kawi,will last you many years.
I have a Kawasaki mule 1000pro. Use the machine for work and pleasure. We go to tug hill and run. We also run the trails in West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Been amazing
Kawasaki build quality is much better than Polaris, on our 5th unit some with over 12000 miles

Hope Alex and Sarah both doing well since went to dr. Same day.😊❤ hope all of your family's are doing well this holiday season and beyond. 😊
Should run it around in low gear, i thought the website says it should go 92 mph. Pretty cool ride!
Looks like Andrew is going to be out cruising in the new buggy!
I’m going have to go visit uncle Andy !! Great stuff !! Ur going to have to build a shed just for ur toyz !!!
That looked like load's of fun,with you and Andrew are the girls going to get a chance to try it out.
Excellent father son time
Thank you for another Great video. Cheers
garmin is one of the best systems out there that will be a GPS you can outline your feild on that model
Only if it works with the Greenstar system that he has. JD is funny about crossover systems. I'm sure it depends on the licensing agreements. 🙄👍
Steering wheel can use some juice to make it stop squeaking? Will be a fun little ride.
Nice purchase Andy. Looks like a really nice machine
Thanks Mike
Need some of ur FFilm on that steering wheel
Very Nice!!!
We’ve got one of those units also
Happy wife, happy life.
Andrew do you have back up power for the farm? I would have thought it would be essential with the need to milk, cool milk and feed the cattle.
Yes
Andy I’m sure the Gator had HVAC. Heat in the summer and AC in the winter😂😂
Enjoy it!!
Ok, dad, get out so I can have some real fun.
Love it !!
Andy your a kid at heart !
Is that full time 4WD or is it 2/4WD? Pretty darn nice machine IMO. 92 HP is impressive!
2&4
May need to break it in for a certain amount of time and or hours and then get a different key from the dealership to unlock all the power
Hey Andy,
Just home from the hospital. I had a heartache Sunday evening. I am ok now. Spent the week in the hospital with all of the no sleeping in the room.

What is wrong with that 6030 in the background at the opening? It’s been sitting there a while if I’m not mistaken
It’s waiting it’s turn
Nice Andy I like that toy Alex or Sarah get hold of it you will loose it lolo maybe not Andrew was doing good job with it .

$30,000 vet bill, you must have a lot more cows than we have
@FarmingFixingFabricating 🐎 horse with a broken neck. Gotta Love em!
See if you could get a model a ford horn ,then install that. Just different.
Hitting branches in the woods is like hitting stones out in a field- you’re going to break something.
How's the Mahindra treating you, these days?
Looks like a nice side-by-side. Thanks for the video.
Thinking about selling it
Andy do you guys still have the roxor??
Yes
The old Honda needs an upgrade?
Andrew
Don't know how u live In that snow. It was 43 ° C here yesterday. Hot but better than freezing. It's 17/12/2024.
Merry Christmas to you and your extended family from Airgen Energy Pty Ltd. Melbourne Victoria Australia and a Happy New Year for 2025.
I might get a new sxs but will never give up my 2009 gator 620i
I think that the Kawasaki will get more hours on it than the Gator as Andrew will be using it for off roading and I’m sure he will get plenty of use out of that winch as well.
I might b getting rid of my gator. You have me convinced
Really
@FarmingFixingFabricating imma have to do some more looking on these
👍
does the power company try to shut down the power on your off milking times?
We never stop milking
You get that kawasaki unit stuck it might take your biggest tractor to pull it out.😊
Bicycle becoming a little to cold Andy?😀
Kinda
Saw that in your shop i said "you gonna fluid film it"? Then a minute later you said you were, lol...
Niceeeeee
So, this is for the wife to do yard work? Does she ever come to the shop? Miss the holiday dinner livestreams but they chased everyone from the kitchen.
Fluid film. That didn’t surprise me. LOL.
How much usd $ ?
They list for $28,500
Isn’t That steering squeak driving you nuts?
Didn’t even notice it
the thing has heat in it if you turn it on
These things seem impressive 'for what they are' until you see a price tag. Then it's less wow this go kart is a lot like a car and more like this go kart costs as much as a car!
That radio is not for us older guys andy. Merry Christmas
Whats supposed top speed, maybe drive this to and from the fields?
You mean what's the supposed top speed
These aren't street legal.
@@steveb6103 Depends where you live. There are some towns in WV where you will see more side x sides than cars/trucks on the street and they are fully street legal.
Probably not the case in NY though 😊
@@MarkFox ... You tell him
Putting scratches in it already
Hello!
I was looking at a ridge but ended up just getting you outlanders instead for trails
nice ,hope your wife likes it !!
Time will tell who gets credit for the first stuck or accidental scrape .
Nice farm, but dirty shop
Oh it’s been a disaster
Hope mama likes the gator replacement. ??
That should go about 70 I have a can am about like yours that how fast it goes
NO POWER TO THE PARLOR,generator running ANDY to power it ???? Thanks sir!! WIFES equipment 👍👍👍🙏.
25000 ,seems like the world has gone crazy?
