Subject: UTV Magazine Can Am Maverick December 5th 2012, 9:29 pm
Got my dec issue of utv magazine today. Well it looks like that maverick may not be that great from what I read. About the same as what dirt wheels says. Also adds that it doesn't ride as good as a wild pussy. If the quality of the wildpussy holds then I'm thinking it may not be a bad purchase. That or I am going to get another commander.
Just looks like the reports on the maverick are all the same so far.

I believe ya on the ride now. All the members here and all the reports say it rides good so it must. Sounds like the wildcat is the best riding side by side on the market. I think it's fair to say that.

If you could transplant an XP motor in it you'd have the perfect SxS....

If I can sell my XP in 3 years I'll buy whatever is kicking the Wildcat's and XP's collective derrieres' in 3 years. Until then I'll remain quite happy with my XP (I hope - have loved it so far).

Straight from johnny from utv inc, he gives some of the best unbiased reviews out there who absolutely nailed the wildcat review.
"Ok so here the Story .. I was Very Lucky to get to try out a new machine this last week .. I’m not supposed to say what kind of machine it is but in the last week I’ve driven it just shy of 300 miles ... 175 Miles of the was in the sand at Glamis .. Going into it I was thinking it’s just a hopped up Commander, Wrong Wrong Wrong .. I really was not impressed with my Commander and only bothered taking it to Glamis a Couple Of Times in the 2 Years I owned it, to me it was far from a dunning machine and I like the Commander so Much I only Put around 200 Miles on it in the two years I owned it.
I have also read some online and Magazine reports on this new machine and was not impressed with what I was hearing ... But I’ll tell you Today I feel they are wrong ... way wrong Now this new machine is nothing short of Bad Ass and Awesome all in one neat little package ... the machine I was driving has the upgraded shocks and let me tell you It would fly past a Turbo RZR XP in the woops going up Comp Hill in Glamis ..we lined up on the berm and he expected me to have to pussy foot the machine thru the woops and I put the hammer down and flew through the woops like a bat out of hell and was the first to the top of the hill .. Don’t get me wrong the Turbo XP was faster on smooth ground but not in the woops .... I also will say I let a Girl Drive the new machine and race her Husband up the Hill at Glamis a couple of times the first time they rolled thru the woops going about 10 mph to the smooth section of hill and she looked like a Maverick Pulling away from her old man a stock motor RZR XP .. I also know her husbands xp well and knew it would run thru the woops up the hill as I sold him his UTVinc King Springs so I called her over as she was lining up to race him a second time and told her none of that pussy footing this time thru the woops .. I told her the machine will handle it Just Mash the peddle to the floor thru the woops ... she was about three cars ahead at the top of the hill ...
I duned with the turbo rzr all weekend and yes it would out pull me on the flats and on the hill but he could never shake me, the suspension is nothing short of amazing and only bottomed a couple of times the whole weekend ..I am not saying this machine will make you Ricky Bobby if you can’t drive and have no sense .. Well you can’t drive and have no sense .... Oh I also might tell you guys if you hit the right roller you can mash the gas and lift the front end ..It’s pretty awesome feeling the front end get light or come off the ground...
I also saw 75MPH IN the sand on flat ground with Paddle Tires
It needs Power Steering I Miss not having it
All in all it’s a awesome and I will be adding one to my collection and I’d say it’s KING OF THE HILL Right Now
Oh ya and its goes a hellofa long way on a tank of gas when the turbo rzr was empty I was just under half a tank
The Machine I was Driving was out fitted with UTVinc Harness Bar and Harnesses and UTVinc Roof and Rear View Mirror For Saftey"

Can am is late to the sport market so this thing has to be better than the xp or its a instant fail. I have no doubt this thing will be a overall better machine than the xp, can am would be crazy to put out something two years newer and subpar to anything currently on the market
