Great video. I purchased a 23 X3 XRS Turbo RR, and haven’t looked back. My buddy has a Pro R and is constantly down for maintenance. 750 hard miles on my X3 and she just wants more!!
This is a sick video! Personally I’d always go with the better option from the factory and that’s why I got the 2022 X3 XRS, but it’s cool to see a comparison! One tip as someone who watches a ton of comparison videos is maybe go a little lighter on the editing with side to side shots? You’re obviously super good at editing and transitions so I’m sure it’s very easy to do a little too much. But otherwise sick video! I came across this on my discover page and subbed 15 seconds into watching this.
Thank for jumping in and yes I totally overdid it on this one 😂 so much of it is the soundtrack that makes me go ham. I love my XRS and I plan on running it for years to come.
I love this video for a bunch of different reasons that will spare everyone with. I own a 2023 Max RS Turbo RR 72. My dad owns the 64 onch wide version. Both are extremely impressive. they really are so similar it comes down really to the suspension if comparing both Versions stock for stock. we primarily ride on the trails of Arizona, which are hard pack and rocky with mostly quad trails and jeep trails. To state the obvious, the main limitation of the 64-inch wide version really is its ride height and how quickly you run out of suspension travel. meaning The 72-inch version rolls over larger bumps with ease, whereas you may consider slowing down in the 64 so as not to bottom out. On hill climbs and decents, the 64 does drag its belly a lot. So far, the 72-inch version has not drug on anything yet. The argument really was suze and the concern for not fitting on/in tight trails. So far, I have gone everywhere with ease. I do not regret my decision to go for the wider wheel base version with more suspension travel. I feel it gives you more options and rolls over obstacles much easier. So, in a nut shell, it boils down to personal preference. As an owner of the 72, I have zero regrets. It blows my mind at what these things can do and how easily they do them.
I’ve had both, I purposely went with QS3 shocks and all the hp. Not a big enough difference to justify the $$$ for my riding on trails and occasional dunes.
This is a great comparison. It seams like with social media and message boards that everyone is obsessed with having the best specs on paper. But how much real-world difference is there for that extra thousands of dollars?
Exactly. I was one of those and it becomes apparent that there isnt a lack of fun. I love my XRS and I’ve spent a lot to ensure I have it for years. Regular maintenance, frame strengthening, and upgrading any part that does break.
What is the actual measurement of the tire height with a tape measure? Alot of tires aren't the height they're labled at. Typically a 35 is 34.8 or sometimes even worse or sometimes a 33 is actually 33.5. Just curious
You should know that in power comparison only valid terms are turbo, turbo r or turbo rr. Rs/base/xds have nothing to do with power. Great video anyways.
That’s correct. But in the video you’re saying that xds is tune up higher where x stands only for a trim package. Turbo r or rr is tuned higher then base/turbo
@@tomsnara yes I did say that. Sorry, that would be me speaking fast off the cuff. The reference was intended to be for HP comparison after that upgrade.
Your Content started off great, then you guys said jumping and it was the weakest little jump in the world sees you kill your Contant but you’re still getting as a thumbs up come on guys don’t put jumping , then 😂hit some little baby bumps in the road 😂 😂
@@sxsoffroad awesome. I had an 18 max base model. I absolutely loved it. Then I bought an xrc turbo RR. There's a big difference in the suspension for sure. Besides the power difference, the suspension is the first thing I noticed. Great video. Let's go ride!
@@garthvader801 I can definitely power through things faster than the base, I think that people think that “base is bad” but they kick ass! I’m down for a ride. Heading out for some filming today
Ditch the click bait title. The whallen 180 puts more horse to the ground than your 172. Ditch the 3 tone shift as well. Keep ripping editting needs a little work but youre on the right track
Do you have an example of video creator style you like? The Whalen is 7k, worth it? Maybe… the XRS is running a stage 3 tune, 3” exhaust and ibex stage 3… I don’t feel that I need any more power. BTW- the title worked didn’t it?

John your camera work is definitely getting better. The video was awesome! 👊🏼
Thanks buddy! We’re out doing so cool stuff today…

Seemed more about the editing and shots than the sxs!😂
For the money, the base max would be my choice. The beauty of these machines is that parts are interchangeable and are upgradeable.
Yes, we’ve been talking about doing a 72” conversion to the 64
Good video bro thanks from Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️

Just curious are you guys running Shock limit straps? Thanks great video
The XRS has them
Another thing worth mentioning is the massive difference in shock quality and tuning. QS3 shocks are hot garbage compared to the internal bypass RC2s.
I think what’s crazy is how well the base machine does without any bells and whistles. Pretty impressive really
I’ve had both, I purposely went with QS3 shocks and all the hp. Not a big enough difference to justify the $$$ for my riding on trails and occasional dunes.
Very good video
Thank you. It was fun to make. Kind of shooting from the hip
Dude... that music track is awesome! One day... probably after the kids are a bit older, I'll get myself a Can-Am... one day
Yes you will. Can am commander for the family!
Get one, take the kids with.

Thank Sir, for inspiration that's my dream car...🙏🇹🇱👍

It’s in the description: 34.6
I can imagine how much it will cost to fix off something brakes.thats why you see a lot of boats in yards because it cost to much to fix
All in all, the machines are easy to work on and the west parts are inexpensive. The upgrades and mods are what get you

The base turbo came with 120 the xrs 172
That’s correct. But in the video you’re saying that xds is tune up higher where x stands only for a trim package. Turbo r or rr is tuned higher then base/turbo
@@tomsnara yes I did say that. Sorry, that would be me speaking fast off the cuff. The reference was intended to be for HP comparison after that upgrade.
Get the mid 172hp.
That’s what my xrs is.
👍🏼
I go there all the time and delle
Delle is fun, knolls is typically where we go when heading that way.

Gotta know how to tease 😜
Why is it that everyone on you tube thinks they are a damn expert at everything!!!!!
I don’t know… I’m definitely not. Just doing a comparison between to machines.
Looks like 5 mile
Indeed. South side

No 4 seeter.... pass
Polaris is junk
I would not pay 35,000 for a 6000 dollar machine
Sucks to be broke then!
