2022 Can Am Defender Pro Limited "One Year Later" 

You need a Turret on that machine....

Fantastic video and great job on the rig, it looks awesome!!

Great looking machine. Very glad you expressed that it is a dedicated HUNTING vehicle and not setup for all the other. Nothing wrong with the other uses. However, as a hunter that is my primary goal for use. I was very surprised at the amount of room inside the cab. That was impressive. As for the storage under the bed . What a great deal, install some type of slide out drawer that will safely and securely hold firearms and ammo. Keeping them out of the elements and easily obtainable. A separate gun rack on it could still be installed and used . To allow easy quick access for short moves. But after the hunt, game retrieval that kind of thing. Open the door slide out the drawer. Open it and a good safe dry secure place to place your firearms and ammo. Very nice... I can think of a few other items to consider... but it is nice. One question I have. Is how loud is it when running ? One of the biggest problems / concerns I have with these vehicles is the noise. They are loud...

Cool rig. Love that flatbed. Reminds me of those Japanese small trucks that convert to flatbed. I’ve had Polaris Rangers and Kawasaki Mules and loved both. May have to try a CanAm next time.

How is the noise of the machine? Does it sound like a truck? We have a Polaris general and it is so loud and scares the elk and mule deer when hunting. We are trying to find something quiet.

Why do sexy sxs's have ugly prices 🤔

Hey A.Amantine. Love your energy, enthusiasm, and storytelling. You were made to do this. Enjoy your content sir.

Can you still use the footwells...for storage.... under the bed from where the back seat would be? Nice looking rig......EDIT....Ha....opened storage up just at the end...I was too quick with my question....great thanks.

I’ve been looking at getting a Defender HD10 for hunting and trail riding. Sounds like the HVAC is worth the extra cost.

I want one of these strictly for farm work and land management. Not sure why more brands don't make a larger bed like this. I'm not super brand loyal just want something that is reliable and has more usable work space for hauling unlike the typical smaller 4 foot bed

I bought a Can Am rear view camera . And its just about useless. I would recomendend you search for a better one . The camera is terrible in daylight and and a very limited view .

Did you delete the short I just saw with the piles of pigs & coyotes on the back of this thing? ...I was gonna send it to my friends but I don't see it now. ✌️

Great video thank you for taking the time. Your a very well spoken guy, I appreciate that you held your tongue with naming the other dealer that screwed you, that was a classy move. God bless you

The honesty of your review and journey (mistakes and all) was extremely informative and appreciated. Thanks for posting!!

texas heat is killer. maybe a fire extinguisher as well? smaller wheels/ bigger tires *thumbsup*

Now I want one. I thought it would be hard to pull me away from my Polaris General. Love the flatbed, and the entire setup in general (no pun intended). Great setup!

In the storage place put a rinse kit 5 gallon. That will take care of your water issues with the tilt bed.

I have this same model on our farm. Never looked back. It fulfilled all our needs. Nowhere near the mods you have, in fact not modded at all. We don't have doors, ac or heat. But ok with it. It's a great machine. People trip when they see it. Always ask about the six foot bed.

I have a 22 defender 6x6....reverse chain is weak, will snap and then wad up into the trans housing and crack the trans. Reverse chain upgrade is a must on these machines.

We have a Polaris ranger on 33” xt400’s with the super atv forward a arms. The shop that installed them opted not to put the steering stops because it reduces turning radius by a lot and since we only use it as a trail riding and hunting bike around our house and camp so that is why we went the route of not installing them. I definitely could see the benefit if you are a heavy mud rider or have the bike in a bind at full turn a lot though. I guess at the end of the day it just depends on the application of the machine. Just a thought and wanted to share my experience with it to possibly help you out/save you some time. Also yours is a can am while ours is a Polaris so they may be different and recommend more for one bike over the other. By no means am I telling you not to install them just thought I’d share my situation cause I too was undecided about it at first. Hope this info helps. Awesome looking rig and great content! Have a good one!

That thing is tough! I dig the flatbed

I bet 550 cord would last a bit longer than those door cables. 🤔

A thumbs up as soon as you said “I built this rig specifically to HUNT” 💪🏼

Have you checked your speed with a GPS? Or, have you adjusted the speedo for the tire size? Bigger tires should equate to a higher top speed but slower take off and thus, the speedo should read SLOWER that you're actually going. Given that everything is digital these days that speedo should be tweakable. Just wondering, what was the stock tire size?

That's one sweet ride. I'm thinking of building one similar to it, but with few little differences. I live in Montana, we don't have the constant heat like you do. But lordy, it gets bitter cold here in the winter. We'll see temperatures down to -35 degrees without the windchill. So I'll definitely be running a snowplow. I'm going to contact Tuff Country about the front bumper, to see if I can run a snowplow with their bumper. I have been looking at a Thumper Fab bumper, but I really like the protection that your bumper as. Mine will be used for hunting, feeding livestock, and plowing snow.

The flatbed on that thing. Primetime. I’d buy that.

Awesome rig TK. Look forward to hearing your NVG video.

Have you owned a regular defender. 3 seater? I have one. Curious how the ride quality compares. I assume less buck with longer wheelbase. Any input?

Glad your enjoying that Canadian machine! Is there still a 6x6 flatbed?

Great video! Sweet Defender. Put some Baja Designs infrared lights on there. Lol.

Still like it? Yay nay?

Hi, bro, how much miles on one full tank ? (chill ride on asphalt/gravel road)

Can it pull the trailer it's hauled on?

Very nice rig. Rotopax makes a bracket that you could mount those small cans in the compartment nder the bed...water at least. That would fix your bed tilting issue. Also mighttry mounting a counterweight of some type under the back edge of the bed to help with the tilt, would probably settle the ride down a bit as well.

Beautiful background my friend . . . love the flatbed!

Clean and simple always looks best! #SimpleandSexy

A. When you were talking about the parts availability issue; this is one of the primary reasons why I did not end up buying a SxS. My sales guy who was really cool, was really frank with me and told me that there is a severely good chance than when my Maverick got delivered that it would not be ready to use/take home. I was surprised when he said that. I even asked him hey, if it doesn't come ready to take home am I still obligated to make payments? He said yes, I said no. Not worth it at all.

Sweet

Hit a oak tree ? Sounds like you was doing a little booze cruising 😂. JK keep up the content 👏

Whenever your ready to hunt South Dakota give me a shout

Very cool machine! I didn’t know Can Am had a model like that. I got a Kubota RTV 1100 I really like it, diesel, hydraulics, a/c heat, radio, love it. It doesn’t go fast but I’m ok with that. I like how you did the window tint on yours, I did the same on my Kubota. Good luck on your next hunt! Cheers 🍻

My cable broke and bent the hinges also. Had to hold the door for a couple miles to get home.

Thats a beauty Rig man. You made that thing nice. Ive always said tires are one of the best compliments of a vehicle. The tint and bumpers make it look badass. Only thing i think would be an issue its the winch on the headache rack, if it had gusset bars i would be more of a fan but i guess if you watch the flex when you winching you be good but i would definitely add a 3-5k which on the rear.

I love this! ❤️

What shirt/logo is that?

I need this exact unit!! I like what you’ve done

I love it.

I know you made this a year ago, but that storage compartment has plenty of room for a fire extinguisher. Best to have one. Even if you never use it.

Looked at this model today. Would love it on my ranch and to ice fish. Only concern is how long of trailer I'd need to haul it with tracks. Have a 14ft trailer now, don't really want to buy a new trailer too.

That’s awesome! Thanks for the info!!

Thank you for a informative review.

Thing is sick!

Long time

You had issues with power windows switches?

Thanks for the shoutout! We have this question alot if it will fit or not on the Defender with long beds or the 6x6. We have heard from our customers that it will but may need to trim or modify a shield on the long bed. We have not tested this fitement yet here. Thanks for the reivew and we love watching!!

Good looking rig and that was words of wisdom.

Ooof!!! 🔥can ham!

That’s a sick side by side 🤙 I’ve been wanting something like that for a coyote rig

I’m diggin the rig dude! Lookin good😎

This dude is dope AF. Subscribe

Oddly theres no gun rack

Hey Amantine, do your brakes squeal? I plan to use my 6x6 for hunting this winter, but my brakes loud whenever I touch them, been like that from the start. Wondered if you had to deal with that issue.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hey man thanks for the content! Quick question are you guys allowed to drive those on the road to get from stand to stand? Here In Vermont they’re too uptight to allow that. Thanks again!

Love the videos sir!

What area of Texas are you in?

Great review,,thx

Brother the ride looks beautiful! I need one for my farm. Great video! New sub here man.

Leave them stops off you’ll be happy!! I left mine off and have yet to break anything. The stops make the radius real bad!

Very nice machine.

Really looking for what county you are in, I'm looking for property like where you are at. Thanks

Great rig! Awesome tires..

Great video,thanks

Very nice set up !

Great looking rig, I have the 22 Pro dps. Put a bunch of accessories on it glass windshield back glass soft Brp full doors roof. Going to install the inferno heater next week. I’ve been thinking about the forward a-arms, running 30” now but I’d like a little more clearance with just bigger tires. Great review on your rig

I love your side by side looks fantastic

hey boss, nice SXS, i just bought a john deere gator but really love the looks and features for the cam am also!

Great rig!!!

In Louisiana we were well over 100 degrees this week. Had my truck saying 114°.

Would you rather have an electric model for hunting?

Hell of a rig

You rock and hootie and the blowfish on this rig?? Jk. Nice rig bro

nice ride

That’s a sweet rig, man!

Can you do a video on how the bed wench works loading hogs or deer onto the bed.

Well spoken and super practical work horse of a rig.

Nice I think I might try to get the bed for our 2019 defender

That’s a bad ass rig man , king of the jungle

That’s a badass set up!!!

Great review man

Roxor is probably a better hunting rig

Love it- been looking at them awhile

Looks like a handy vehicle. It seems to be almost the size of a jeep.

Sick looking rig.

I’d have to relocate those roto packs...

It amazes my how much people pay for these plastic buggies.

Nice machine

Buy a Honda. Sounds like BS.

Sweet "ute"

👍👍
