- 02-12-2021 ICY ROADS. Join me for not only a mini mission with the 2019 Polaris Ranger XP 1000 Northstar edition UTV, but also we'll do some offroading through the frozen fields and woods of our Southern Illinois farm to get us out of the house for some fresh (and frigid) air, and some really nice scenery to boot. As you'll see in this video, we've had several ice and snow storms lately, and in our very rural Southern Illinois county the road trucks are few and far between, so we've had an ice covered road for 3 days now without a country truck arriving yet! But today on our ride you'll see that the county truck finally made it to our dead end, and very hilly road to sprinkle some of their magic black dust to help with traction. Our road has a very big valley with steep hills on both sides and the UPS truck could not make it so he left all of the packages for our road at the house at the very end of the road. Additionally we had a heating and Air truck hit the ditch down at the bottom of the hill last night, but the neighbors were able to pull him out. So, lets hop in the Polaris Ranger, turn up the heat, and take a nice ride!

Sweet ride around. Thanks for taking us around the ranch. Enjoyed the scenery.
Thank you, it was nice to get out. Going to be doing this again in the next day or two! We're getting snow right now, lol. (01/06/22). Have a good one
Thanks for the ride! Beautiful little plot of God's green earth you have there. Same cold weather farther east and north. 22° here on the coast of Maine!
Well that was a nice ride,and thanks for having the heat on lol😅👍😊...
Thanks for the outdoor adventures, interesting to say the least. It was fun...stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep warm and dry.
Thanks for tagging along! Hope you enjoyed the ride! Take care
A nice little winter tour around the property. Good job Kap, keep up the good work and thanks for the ride along.
Thanks for coming along. Been in winter lockdown now for over a week, record lows still coming!! ugghh.
Beautiful...all those years you spent fussing with your driveway any it perfect 👌 great job your property is beautiful. 🙂
🔥🔥🔥 THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR DAY MASTER KAPPER👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That was a nice ride I love the trails you have connecting everything. My property is long and narrow with a single road down the middle. Only thing is I can't use it after the snow comes. 2 thubs up on the ride a long.... Have a great weekend bud.
Thanks for sharing your trails through the woods....I miss doing that from years ago.
Glad you enjoyed it. Have a great evening!
I got a set of chains for ours, in the event we were to take it ice fishing. They have excellent bite!
I love knowing I’ll now never have to worry about getting around, in any icy conditions! I love it!
Good call! Ice has it's own set of slippery properties! lol. But the machine is awesome for sure! Good luck on the ice!
Thanks alot I really enjoyed the video I love your Ranger with cab and heater sure is nice on those cold days thank you
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you. I hear Can Am has AC now I think?
You have the nicest toys.......................
Thanks for the joy ride.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@kapperoutdoors Gets me out of quarantine through your eyes. Thanks
I like your Polaris. Nice to have heat this time of year
Hey man that was nice video I reallly enjoy your so bless
That steering wheel not being straight is killing my OCD!
Lol
Love the video
LOL I guess I never noticed it! Thanks.
Thanks for the ride. Ordered my NS in November and still waiting, so I have to check out TH-cam to get my Ranger fix.
Nice place glad your heat⁸ works well
I still enjoy watching this video...Probably my 10th watch.
yeah, I really need to get out and do some more riding! But since deer season is still in, I'm waiting to see if by a Slim chance, that a big one shows up on camera yet!
That looks like fun! It has been cold here lately, but nothing like that.
Joe, you may not live in the middle of nowhere---but you can definitely see it from your place!! lol
We've had down to minus 20c here in 🏴🏴 an where we are 12to 14 inches o snow ❄️❄️ enjoyed the trail ride good video 👍👍
Nice buggy 👍
Nice machine looks cozy in the bad weather .
no doubt, well worth the investment!
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for the awesome content stay safe and take care
Thanks, you too!
@@kapperoutdoors Your welcome bud and thank you
Looks like a good time!
Not too bad for being in the teens and 20's :)
@@kapperoutdoors Not at all.
🏆🏆🏆👍🙏
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for coming along! Cheers!
Nice Polaris and you have a nice track of land.
Thanks man, appreciate it. Have a good weekend
Weee or Wiiii, you need some hills for sledging we like to do. W axs s that BIG FOOT you pass in the woods. He had his thumb out to get warm. Nice video and we only have open ride ATV's no heat so put the suits on when out to long. Btw burn wood ash is great to use on roads and earth friendly back to natural. Road salt bad.
Nice ride around exploring the property! It's been cold and windy in the last few days here as well, going to get some snow today.
Thanks for tagging along, it was a nice get-out-of-the-house trip!
At the end when you slid you could have gone ahead and done a 360. The boy I road to school with in Houston used to do 360’s in his souped up Chevy . There was a street in River oaks that was just perfect for that. It had to be raining since freezing is not common in Houston.
Relaxing video. Beautiful wintery scenes. You didn’t seem to have any traction problems especially going up the hills.
yeah I sure could have done a donut!! lol. I had it in 4wd for the uphill parts, and yeah, if I'd slow down too slow, I'd start spinning the tires. Thanks.
Couldn't resist doing the slide turn at the end Ha Joe, I see you are in for more rough weather all next week so much for global warming keep safe and warm.
Missed some comments last year! But going to do another ride in the next day or 2! Cold and snowing out now. 2 inches so far! Thanks
Awesome video. I had to subscribe. My parents just picked up a 2021 NS in pursuit camo that they ordered back in December. Still in the break in period and dad decided to take it through some deeper snow and got it stuck! On the 2nd day of owning it😂 had to go out there and give him a little push.
LOL nice work dad!! But hey, he was OUTside and having some fun! They will love it!! Thanks for joining us!
Nice video! I’d love to own some land and ride a utv in the woods!
Mrs K working from home! Yeah right! Where is she working in the shop making some unbelievable more wood crafts?? LOL
Beautiful to see all we have here now is more rain and we have already had rain for three weeks non stop ! :(
Man, we've been in a frigid lockdown for a week now! Several more days too!
Buying an excavator was a good choice in my opinion. But the UTV is just ideal for this landscape and works great. It's fun and can go everywere - Except for the ponds there you need a snorkel for it.
Yep I agree. Was it expensive? Yep. But man to have the cab, heat and ac and protection from bugs and allergens and stuff is really nice ! Thanks.
Kapper I think you’re getting a little soft. I thought you said you were from Wisconsin 27° that’s T-shirt weather we’re only at -10 feels like -22 right now. Our roads have a bout an inch of ice on them three months out of the year nobody would go to work then. Lol Nice video thanks for sharing.
Well I hate to admit it but you are right!! I have gotten a bit soft!!! LOL. But I enjoy working outside in the 40's during winter!! (most of the time :) Good luck with the frozen tundra!! Cheers
You got me wondering if there will be a Kapper's 2nd Annual Quad-lympics this year.
Looks like cinders. We used to see them a lot in Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. Not so much these days.. I think they used to come from coal fired power plants.
Yep that is exactly what they call it. But I have no idea what it actually is...?
Nice ride along. The shots in the woods are really good, must have taken you ages to set them up.
Thank you I appreciate that. And yeah, it does take a bunch of extra time to get nice shots, but it is worth it. I really enjoy the TH-cam hobby and sharing cool stuff that we do with others. Have a good one.
Hey kapper I noticed you have the old display on your ride command. You should do the October 2020 update. The new gauge screen is setup so much better. The update also add vehicle speed volume control for radio. It's really nice.
Wow, good info! Guess I have to figure out how to get the update! Thanks.
@@kapperoutdoors just go right on the Polaris ride command website. Instructions are on there and fairly simple. Just need a thumb drive.
Oh my God shedding for seniors.
Mrs Kapper did good, she found like 376 out of 412 trail cameras? Lol, stay warm, currently -1 here with a brisk wind
😅 exactly! I really don't think he knows how many he has, just say'n...
I wish I had a driveway that long. Not possible over here in Europe...
Might as well take the scenic way back...
Yep, might as well!! Not much else to do!
We're you still in turf mode in the woods
I know this is an older video but what tires are you running? Seems pretty smoth but lots of grip
I think they are Maxxiss if I remember correctly. We have since traded up to a 22 Ranger Northstar Ultimate. I'm a sucker for new machine smell! lol
27 degrees, how can you stand it that hot Kapper? -6 right now in central Iowa.
LOL I hear you! But we've had high's in the teens and low 20's now for a week!! Bet you'd actually like that heat wave up by you!?
Thats some beautiful country. Still happy with your machine?
Yes. It needs a couple things I have to get it in the shop, I think it is electronic, don't want to start all the time (starter won't always engage at all). Otherwise it has been awesome.
Do you have the stock tires or have you done an upgrade? I have a 570 with stock tires but I hear they are 2 ply junk.
Well when I bought it I upgraded to Maxxis, I think they are 6 ply, much tougher for punctures. Really like them, great traction too. Thanks.
I missed one out of 531 cameras? I bet it's one you forgot you even had...🤪
Actually honey I think you missed like 2 or 3....
Hi Kapper👋🏽,are you still satisfied with the Polaris Ranger? Greetings from Germany👍
Yes, has been an awesome machine! The heat works great in this single digits we've had lately! Cheers! take care
Thanks for the info👍.My ranger will be delivered today.😬😁.It will be built for Europe in Poland. From there to Germany. Look forward to your next videos. Stay healthy.
Was looking at getting a north star crew cab xp1000, but they were asking $26K!!! Are these worth that much??
All depends on how important your comfort is. The wife said the exact same thing you did when I bought it. But now she uses it all the time instead of the open cab UTV and has the AC cranked!! Now she likes it :)
When you’re cruising on a dirt road like that can you still hear the music good?
If you turn up the volume you can! :)
@@kapperoutdoors nothing a little AC/DC can’t fix!
How hot can the heater get the cab? Ballpark temp
Plenty warm just like a car or truck. But the vents are all up high, I don't think there are vents down be the feet but I'm not certain.
Man you can't even hear yourself think in that machine... Wish they could make em more Quiet
Yeah I agree. Since then I've upgraded our audio, and in our Northstar now I added a lot of sound deadening so the new rig is much quiter. But I agree, would be nice if it were quiet from the factory. Thanks
🐼🐼🐼Moi.
Cinders sand salt
I'm disabled and looking at getting one my concern is that I'm 6'4" how much leg room you have
It's tight but I ride it all the time. They do have a generous cab. I'm 6'5"
@@kapperoutdoors thank you
Nice ride Kapper, thanks. BTW, were those cinders on the road? Haven’t seen those for years and won’t if Sleepy Joe and the dems get their way
How tall are you? I’m 6’2” and wondering if I’d be comfortable n that machine.
I'm 6'5" and it is a little tight. But then again every single machine I've owned is usually tight for me. Best of luck! But I do like my Northstar! We have a crew unit now.
Not much fresh air inside a cab haha.
No but it is warmer :)
Must b someone else's, couldn't find lite switch
nope, not someone else's. Just seldom ever use lights, didn't use it much at night. We got rid of this one, which I regret. Have a Northstar Ultimate now.
Seat Belt ....sure is uncomfortable setting of that belt, what is is good for? You should be driving one of the old cars from the 30s or 40s I know I pick on you about the belt. I am not bigger than you, but older and wiser and use my brain. I would rather drive with no trousers than no seat belt. You guys can keep the snow and ice we got a little rain.
Why not just buy an older Jeep Wrangler if you want heat, AC, and enclosed cab?
Probably way cheaper than the $23k or higher of a ranger.
It does t even have the quality of Yamaha or Honda.
No way any 'road' veh will go the places this machine will go. 2 different animals for sure. Just smaller, and more compact, with much more 4x4 ability. But you are right a small suv might be cheaper but I don't know the prices. Thanks.
