Does the heater keep the windows defrosted on the inside well enough? I think fog and frost would be a big problem. I noticed you can't see out the side windows at all.
I think they're called safari windows. That's what VW called them on their Transporter. I wonder if a half-track would be almost as effective without as much cost?
I have been using the Teflon coating spray on all my winter gear snowblower snowmobile and the snow does not stick that should help you guys out a lot if you use it
Look guys we all know the only reason we complain about the prices on this stuff is because it's more than we wish to pay... we all know if we were loaded we'd have one of these....
Can you imagine getting stuck in that thing? Digging out a stuck 500 pound snowmobile can be difficult, digging out a 2000 pound tracked pig of a sxs is entirely different.
Oh god. Memories of the 22" Indy wide track my parents owned back in 05'. Got it stuck, was by myself. I couldn't imagine digging out a Fiat 500 on tracks.
Seems like a big waste of money,by the time you buy the tracks and accessories and windshield and cabs and windshield you can buy a very nice snow mobile
have to see more footage in the deepest snow and hillclimbs. Lets see footage of these thing's limits. Still think attack angle on the rears could be better and wider.
no, get the base turbo version, spend a few hundred to get power you want from it, add on the windshield & wiper washer for $1500 and convert the half doors to full/soft doors and roof for $1500.... Base is $19k, but lets get the $21k DS Turbo R 172hp model... Ok, that's $24K for X3 with windshield, wiper, washer, roof, full doors, and soft windows. The fancy tracks are $7100 with mounting kit while the cheaper 360LT track system is $5400 and the DPS module is $120ish... . You could get a 172hp model with tracks for under $30k, or throw the fancier tracks on and spend about $31.5k. . Unless you're pounding whoops I don't see the need for the internal bypass shocks and couple extra inches of travel. If you want a locked front end Halo has an elocker for $900 and torq has a detroit style for $400... . ... and it wouldn't be too hard to fit a heater core off a coolant line and fan to heat the cab, or just run some cheap heated seat covers.
for the price it should have an integrated polymer fender over the front tracks to prevent all that snow thrown around... I'd rather have an enclosed sxs with a heater than a snowmobile any day
windshield wiper? thats so low tech...just use rain-X...that stuff works so much better in rain, ice snow whatever...many times ive nbeem driving down the highway and all the other cars are pulling over from hard rain and if i can see through their windshield i notice they cant see anything with old timey windshield wipers
Hmmm...seems like way to much money for something that could never keep up with the old $3000 rev chassis sled I ride. If your worried about being in a cab with heat maybe you should volunteer to groom trails for those of us who actually ride real snow machines 😁
Nice machines but not for snow ! I have outlander XTP 2019 and this tracks . Honesty in deep snow not worth it. .im enjoy with Yamaha Sidewinder BTX 2019 in snow much better.

Oh hell yes.... If I lived in Alaska! I like these modern toys!
How much more fuel does it use? Seems like you might have to refuel quite often
Picking one up next week. Northern BC.
How many inches of ground clearance with the Apache track system
I see you got to meet Nick from sxs blog He’s a cool dude I would love to do this to my maverick

Main problem is that these machines are too wide for snowmobile trails and are not allowed on most trail systems
I could see these kits on a defender for light grooming, get the piston bullys out there on the weekend and then run the side by side during the week.
Why not?
How much better are the Appache’s in the snow compared to the 360’s? Specifically is there a big difference in traction or floatation?

I was just wondering what type of truck has the best payload capabilities in Canada at least five seats and v8 1500 & 2500 series

This is what a winch is for.

yeah but if you've already spent so much money on the turbo $9k to make it a year-round machine is pretty reasonable
Except your snowmobile cannot carry 600 lbs of gear unless you have an alpine.
And It is a year around machine

A video of this vs a razor 1000 would be awesome!
That wouldn't keep up with my group on sleds, we ride 60mph all day long. Would be nice for ice fishing though.
What brand of doors are those
Nice video
That's 50K US plus for the whole setup shown, HOLY SHIT!

How wide and long does it make the X3?
Did it fog up much inside?
Using a tracked vehicle (ATV or UTV)on a Snowmobile is highly illegal in Minnesota.
360 lt only go 30 max on a 2018 max xrs... do these go faster
Are you running back country or old tracks?
for the price it should have an integrated polymer fender over the front tracks to prevent all that snow thrown around... I'd rather have an enclosed sxs with a heater than a snowmobile any day
Need to put fenders over the front tracks
Awesome video as usual, thank you. At almost half the price of the vehicle, unless you live in Antarctica, seems goofy
I like my apache 360s, they work year around.
Are they only available on can am only?
Juan Carlos Gonzales I know you can get them for Polaris too Probably can get them for any utv
What about paddles?
windshield wiper? thats so low tech...just use rain-X...that stuff works so much better in rain, ice snow whatever...many times ive nbeem driving down the highway and all the other cars are pulling over from hard rain and if i can see through their windshield i notice they cant see anything with old timey windshield wipers
Oh hell no, not far from buying a Tucker at that point, at least you'd have a party barge
what type of helmet is he running?
Spanky Mann It’s a SkiDoo helmet I think it’s called oxygen But Iam not sure
Since you can buy a used sled for that price - it might be the way to go. :)
Awesome
This is cheap in canada in finland maverick x3 and tracks are 50000€
From Canada but work in Colorado. Ok
Looks so tough. But 💰💰💰💰

Best is buy everything .
Never keep up to the sleds. And u would run outta gas trying. Look cool though!
The point has nothing to do with sleds lol! I wish people would stop comparing an atv with a sled!
Nice machines but not for snow !
I have outlander XTP 2019 and this tracks . Honesty in deep snow not worth it. .im enjoy with Yamaha Sidewinder BTX 2019 in snow much better.
6:10 Get out the way!
Not a CHANCE these keep up with sleds hahaha I mean anyone that’s rode a snowmobile knows that’s ridiculous
So that’s a 50k machine....
Canadia! Fu*% Yeah! Going to save the mother fu*%ing day YEAH! Canadia!
What a rip off. Already spent 30k on the machine then another 10
Nice review. Way too much money though.
Hell for 40 grand you could build a really nice jeep....
Those comments are getting really old.
uh ...no
Just get a snowmobile......
It will not keep up with a snowmobile and will n oil t go where snowmobiles can. If people want them, great but be honest.
Made in Canada..cheaper to buy in the USA..lmfao
