- Today we take a close look at our new Kubota Sidekick RTV-XG850, This machine was loaned to us by Kubota to use on our property and in our videos. So far we love it! Plows well, Turns on a dime, and has very quick acceleration. This one came with several options that we cover in todays video.

We live in Western Pa. and Have around 100 Acres of Land, About 1/2 is ours the rest is my moms, We have 4 kids and one grandchild, 3 Golden Retrievers and one Cat. We enjoy working on our property and making impovements. We sell firewood and soon will be selling hardwood lumber.
I own a side kick personally. You'll love it, I'm more impressed by it every time I get time with it.
Didn't know how much I needed mine until I got it. Love my sidekick
Happy Valentines Day Melissa and Mike have a great day God Bless.
Okay, I paused the Video at 1:30 ... This first minute and a half is AWARD WINNING!!! the Drone Video, The Theme, the Snow Plowing.. GENIUS !!! Nicely done Mike !!! now, back to the video !! Thankyou.
Thank you! Its nice when people notice that, it takes me a while to do that lol
Happy Valentine's day to Mike and Melissa and family
Nice machine
Love my kubota RTV!
this is going to be a great addition to the property, everyone in the family will love using this! 48 HP good lord!!!!
Hello, that's an awesome gig you have with kubota, I'm jealous.
My wife and I bought a new sidekick couple of weeks ago. We absolutely love it. We do a lot of trail riding with it as well as haul stuff around the property. We don't need to go 60 mph, we enjoy seeing the sites. 45 top speed is plenty in this thing. Electric over hydraulic dump box is sweet. It will haul 1000 pounds with ease. And as for trail riding it seems to be very comfortable. If I purchased a polaris ranger with the same options it would have been 35000 dollars and this was 22. Zero percent kubota financing like the rest of my equipment. Made it hard to pass that up.
Absolutely love the kubota sidekick!!!
Nice machine Mike, you will like it. I just bought an RTV 1100c diesel with full cab and heat and ac and I love it Kubota builds a quality piece of equipment. Have a great day it’s warmed up to 22 degrees up here in NH.
Good morning Morgan’s! Looking forward to the reviews on this one. Have a day!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Sidekick - I work that thing like a rented mule - I haul firewood - pull the splitter - pull logs out of the woods and it just keeps on going. I had an RTV 1100 and it was a workhorse too but this is the best of both worlds. Well worth the money
Good info, I’m looking forward to hauling some real loads in it
Very timely for me that y'all are reviewing this. We are about to buy a new one & I've looked at the sidekicks. Once again thanks & keep doing what y'all do.
I have a Kawasaki Mule 610 which is similar to the Side Kick but it doesn't have any speed at all, 25 max but it has lots of torque. Purely as a work vehicle it does the job with snow plowing and 1200 pounds of firewood hauling in a trailer. The Side kick now has my attention and could be a really nice replacement in the future. The Mule is made specifically to fit in the back of a 1/2 ton 6 ft truck bed and in-between the wheel wells, so its rather narrow and short.
I bought an 1120 Kubota diesel 4 years ago, love it and can't believe how much we use it. Kubota makes a great product.
Mike & Melissa - Thanks for sharing. Looks like a winner. Blessings to you both, and to your family. Hi to Hunter, Hannah, and Eva.
Melissa you knocked it out of the ballpark with your outfit... Another great video and review, thanks Mike & Melissa!
Good morning Mike and Melissa, chilly here in Deep East Texas at 29 degrees and will be getting colder for the next couple days. Supposed to get some freezing rain and light snow too. Nice looking new Kubota side by side. Looks like it’ll do the job for you folks around there. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred. 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋
I like this Kubota Sidekick RTV-XG850! I know what I want for my birthday.
Awesome
I had a old 855 john deere SUV and loved it just sold it at the end of last year and bought a new 1100c kubota cab enclosed to keep warm and cool in the summer. It an absolute beasts. I use it to go back and forth to my shop and house. It also will get used for firewood hauling, mulch and topsoil on jobsite. Can't fir the snow to end to use this spring. So far I love it
Well Mike, you just sold another Sidekick, purchased yesterday, we live in Nova Scotia. Thank you for the great content by you and your family with the occasional special guests!!!
This is a lot better commercial than you'd see on primetime TV--and its made by REAL people (users)!
Happy Valentines 💝 Morgan family 👪 work hard stay strong
Yep - need some removable soft side doors. Looking forward to daughter reviews. Thanks and take care. (thanks M&R)
Happy Valentines Day to everyone. That will be another fun machine. I just commented this week what features your next side by side might have and here it is.
Well this was unexpected..lol. Another Kubota to add to the family! Its nice to actually see it in action. We were looking at these and the 4 seater RTVs before we bought our Kawasaki Mule. The Sidekick is a great machine. Have fun with it, Morgans!
Great video Morgan Family! Congratulations on 200k subscribers! You put a lot of hard work into your channel and it’s great to see the success. You’ll have 500k subscribers in no time! Great job! 👍🏻
Looks like a good move by kubota . Nice options . I like what I see so far . Glad they let you demo these products . Well done 👍👍👍
Melissa you Rocked that Sidekick!! Beep Beep!!
Mike, you have got to be the luckiest man I know. You get to play with all the “Toys For the Big Boys.” Am I envious? It should be obvious. God Bless You!
WOW - another new toy - what a surprise...😆. Honestly - I’m glad Kubota has the deal with you. Nice machine - the ONLY accessory missing is closed in doors... folding windows or something. Marcus from Chesapeake VA.
That will perform better and better once she breaks in and loosens up a bit. Also when you get 15" of heavy wet snow you can put tons of cinder blocks out back and plow light crazy with that! Happy Valentines Day Morgans!
Pretty slick unit.
I saw when Melissa turned by the wood shed how tight the turn was. Glad you followed up and mentioned the turning radius. That was impressive. Nice review. thanks!!!! PS. great drone footage at the beginning.
My favorite part of this video is the Tundra in the background!! Oh yeah the RTV is cool too...
Awesome!
That side kick is Awesome seams very versatile!!👍👊
Phil here from NE Indiana. Great looking side-by-side. I have a JD 825i S4 Gator. Seats 4. With the grandkids a 2 seater just wouldn't do around here. I have my JD 1025R tractor but I would be lost without the Gator. I put more miles on the Gator than I do my truck. Good luck with the Sidekick and have fun.
Good morning Hunter ;-) and Morgans , last nights live was great fun ! ;-)
Yes it was!
The difference between men and boys is the price of the toys. More than this ole man needs, but I’ll enjoy vicariously. May need to put a governor on it for the Misses 😄
She will be airborne on the trails! Laughing
Your Kubota dealer must love you !!! LOL... Enjoy all those new toys !
His and hers UTEs. Love it.
Good morning everyone. 1º in Kansas City now. Expecting light snow all day. Happy Valentines day. Stay safe, be humble & kind and have a day.
i did not know kc can get that cold...i passed by last week and i was surprised...
Good luck with the new toy. If you keep it you'll put it through it's paces.
That is one nice utv. I like it and I want one but them things are expensive. Thanks for sharing Mike have a wonderful week
So happy you got a new snow plowing machine. That shorter model will help you get into and out of tighter places, and do the job quite nimbly! Enjoy it! You're getting quite an arsenal of equipment. Love your drone shots while riding. Added a great perspective!
Lovin that!
Looking good in green as well 👌
People have always been interested in comparisons. This will make some very interesting vidoes.
Hi Mike... Glad to see you showing off the Kubota Sidekick. I've had one for almost 2 years now. I love it, and it's a hell of a work horse on our farm. I use it to haul hay and grain for feeding our animals. Lately a lot of snow plowing. I tried out one of the Kubota diesel models on the farm and there was no comparison as to how much better the Sidekick performed for my use. My days of extreme trail riding have long been over so I was interested in a true work horse. Mine has the electric dump bed which is really nice and I like the simple tailgate latches that are so simple they're problem free. Really like your channel and check daily to see what's new....
Cool ride
I'd love a kubota rtv with the cab heat and air....
Matt, the bank will help you with that.
@@realairplane261 I'm sure they would but I am the kinda person who would draw against my own money and pay myself the intrest lol. I'm having a 30'x40' building built now so maybe when that is finished
Matt we both have the same mind set when it comes to how we made our dollars and how we spend our dough.
Mike & Melissa living the dream
Oh boy looks like I need to start working some O.T. lol
Happy Valentines Day & Happy Anniversary M&M
You guys have to be rolling in funds to afford all these toys
Umm, did you watch the video, its on loan from kubota. They have a partnership with them.
@@mitchdenner9743 thanks
@@HallnoutMhall actually i was talking to greg, he commented how they must be rolling in the dough to afford all of these things.
Michael,
You will never be able to keep up! Laughing
Congrats on the 200k,. Loved the live last night.
I love mine
And Melissa, those sound effects you make have a name. It's onomatopoeia. My wife taught me that as I seem to do it all the time.
Beautiful machine! I had a kubota for years and really liked it.
Neat machine, I never knew Kabota made a UTV, But now I do, excellent video and description...!!!
I never thought about these machines,until I started working on some property.Now I can totally understand having one.Tractor was always first on my list,but this would be a close second..Yours has some really great options with the front and rear glass,decent lighting,and that bed with the extender is awesome..We use ours for getting feed from the storage barn out to the animals everyday.Just for that task alone it’s worth it..
Mike we just bought one a few months ago! We Love it, a pure workhorse! Go anywhere machine! Shout out to kubota! A great side by side👍🏼🇱🇷
I really like that Kubota side by side, my Kubota dealer is just down the road going to check it out Monday, I like the forest green color too. Melissa sure liked taking it for a drive. Thanks Mike.
Mike, love all you do. But... in true transparency I know you would have not done anything but the 1140 just because you have such a big family. And going to and from your Mum's and Levi's house requires more that just a 2 seater. I get it though you are with Kubota and they probably just gave you this one to use. I think I need you to say that to your followers just for full disclosure....
Happy Anniversary to you and Melissa!
hello Morgans that is a nice bike a all around machine for work and fun thanks for sharing have a great day
I’ve had a Kubota Rtv, great workhorse. Have a Kawasaki Mule now. They all are great machines for the farm! Congratulations on the Sidekick!
Nice machine! I normally stick to the tractor but I could see utility in this for my land. My friend just bought one and loves it too. Thanks!
Well this was unexpected ... lol. Another Kubota to add to the family! Its nice to actually see it in action. We were looking at these and the 4 seater RTVs before we bought our Kawasaki Mule. The Sidekick is a great machine. Have fun with it.
Very nice UTV. I'm looking to upgrade from my 700 yamaha Grizzly. The Grizzly doesnt pull the new 28HO to well. Plus there are times i couldnt get out in the woods with my truck, but the 4 wheeler will. So having a UTV like this makes a job a lot easier going to cut firewood. I like the options it came with! Thanks for Sharing Mike and Melissa! Melissa, i like your comment about your jeep. Drive it like you stole it.
Happy Day Morgan's from an iced in Chesterfield County Va. I love your videos and all the information. I've been a Kubota guy for 20 years since buying my 2001 L3710 HST cab, 2001 first gen BX2200 (both are still like new, though I've been drooling over the MX5400) and now 7 months into owning a 2020 RTV X1100C. My property is much like yours, but only 60 acres. I've been extremely pleased with the work and play abilities of the RTV. 25mph on the trails abound my place is plenty fast! By the way, your video on the Sthyl chaps prompted my wife to buy me a pair. Best wishes to you and the family!
Melissa. R stands for race. Enjoy the new toy
Hello guys,nice 4x4,Melissa is going to have a blast,do the girls ever drive these around,seem they would get a kick driving it too.Snowing and ice here in Dallas,with more to come,22* here and falling.I have a Honda Pioneer 4x4 ,need to put a back up camera onmine to load boat trailer on.You guys have a great week,Look forward to the next video.
Traded my RZR 1000 on one. I needed a workhorse that was fun too. With 20 acres to maintain, the RZR couldn't stretch its legs and it didn't have much capacity for work. The sidekick at 40 mph is more than sporty enough and 10 times more capable of work. Kubota did it right!
I tested out the Sidekick....man they are great machines! More cost effective than the JD Gator...my only complaint is that the Gator was nice to only use 1 hand to open the tailgate...two handed opening is a bit combersome....but a metal bed makes up for it!
Agree, i do like the one hand but on my ranger it started giving me fits like and pickup tailgate would
200,0000 congratulations for your hard work great channel take care cheers
Imagine that, another new toy! Where the fork in the road came for me I obviously took the wrong fork....🤨 Congrats Mike and Melissa!
Same here, but I've taken the wrong fork more than once I think. Lol.
MIKE, purdy neat !!! Can definitely hide well in the woods with THAT paint scheme!
kubotas has option colors wich there the only one has more options like black,orange,camo green or dark wood green, plus the rtv made same from factory where the tractors are made plus has gas ,diesel options plus the dump bed has manual,hydrulic electric dump options
@@michaelmactavish1728 Thanks,good to know. Watching the video caught me by surprise seeing Mike without an orange backdrop!
@@JohnSmith-tv5ep kubotas only ones let ya have any colors ya want deeres only just deere green and yellow or camo only 2 options wich kubota has more black, dark green, camo flags green, kubota orange or if wonmens wants one kubota can get them in pink as well for same price
@@michaelmactavish1728,
PINK? Nooooo!
@@oldmanfred8676 not my color either but its great for the women lol
Gotta love her thinking.. Drive it like you stole it.
12:57 "Lumber Yard"
???
Nay nay, Melissa.
That is the "Renewable Resources Processing Center" :-)
Looks like a really nice machine
perfect timing morgans your video showed up just as I sat down with my first mug of coffee
Nice
Sweet!
You did a Great job covering the 850. We just got one about a month ago. I love it. I was surprise at how soft it rides going across my farm fields. Have a Great Day!
Yes very nice suspension
Hi Mike an Melissa go inside you know it's cold out when you can't stand still lol have a day love from TEXAS
About time you get another vehicle to work around the property.
Yes in deed, it has been a couple of weeks since the kx057 arrived. Just kidding!
I have an 06 Kubota that I bought used, had 250 hrs on it, it is a workhorse, I have hydralic dump box which is awesome. I don't ride trails with it but it's a great machine.
Not familiar with the sidekick, but the rtv diesel is a real workhorse, but for the money, it he ranger is hard to beat. And you have proven time and time again that the ranger is a hard working and very reliable machine. I do think though that you will enjoy the size of that kabota vs the ranger crew when you are out in the woods. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Get ready! It looks like you will get to use that new toy for this upcoming snowstorm!! Have fun. Be safe.
It’s so awesome you get to try out new toys(tools for property) 😬
Brilliant little unit, looked up on the UK site, Melissa would be outraged as we can only get 25hp!
Good morning -25 here in East Central Minnesota.
I like the new rig
Hi Larry! Thats cold, good day to hold down the couch lol
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans
The last two weeks been this way, after today the temps get better
I love your Pittsburghese, when you said “extra slippy “
Alot of Pittsburgh folk lol. Come up to the Erie pa area to fish for steelhead. We call them muppiers because they always say we mupp here to go fishing.

Muppers, Laughing
@@jimmymcclelland3727 Really?
Yeah its nothing bad lol I've told a few and they laughed
Mike, or how they do not pronounce the L before a D like coLd, is code. It drives my daughter crazy since she is a speech pathologist.
Most new UTV's are nice around the farm which is what you will use it for. I have a Polaris Ranger 900XP and use it around my place and also use it for trail riding which you won't find many if any Kubota's out on the real UTV trails. Also, it probably is a little quicker than your old Polaris since you had a Polaris that would haul more people and dogs. You will probably miss that from time to time. The Polaris also doesn't mess with the "parking brake lever" and has a park position. You can of course get any option you want the same as the Kubota. Good luck with the Kubota!
Mike, my wife and I just bought a Sidekick last week and we both love it! We had a turn signal kit , installed from the dealer and a license plate. Here in Tennessee it is legal to drive on the local streets. I’m already hauling firewood. I look forward to seeing your future reviews. Keep the videos coming.
Nice, wish we could run on the road here
Gonna show my wife her new car. This is perfect.
Boy I want one of those. I like the size of it.
Thumbs up
nice new toy TO TRY OUT!... doe's it have a heater?... MELISSA PLOW GURL!.... wow! nice unit!... thanks 4 video. be kind.
Happy Valentines Day to you all !! Great video as always Mike ! Appreciate all your hard work , just wish i was 25 years younger so i could work like that !! Have a day and say hi to the Hunt man !!
Nice ride, but I guess I'll stick to my polaris ranger for now. Melissa seems to really like the sidekick and if you ain't cateful, like me, you'll have to ask the wife if you can use it during hunting season. Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸
