Ranger meets your needs, end of story!

Haters are always gonna hate! What matters is it works for you!

Your comment on how it rides like a BUICK, made me grin. You have a true Land Yacht. We owned the real thing,though, an 84 BUICK LeSaber. It would wallow thru curves. And like everyone else, you bought the one that suited you needs.

Everyone has different opinions and needs don't matter what they say! So if it is perfect for you that is All that matters! You used it plenty, and knows what it will preform I trust your judgment!! 👍👊

Absolutely, we've had great luck with the Ranger 570 midsize , for the money very good machine

Polaris is a great machine, Mike. I had a Polaris 500 and had a great time with it going across the state of Nevada...

Rangers are awesome! I've had mine for over 7 years now, no issues! Your 5 reasons were all dead on! Got what I got for the same reasons (minus the crew cab). Keep up the good work 😁

Got a 2019 xp 1000 crew for our property its fantastic. I know many say get jeep etc but its great for small trails. Very versatile like you said

Good review of the Polaris Mike. I have been doing some comparisons and everyone has their opinions. Yours was honest and I appreciate that so much. Thanks for sharing.

Love my ranger. Has been doing work on my farm since 2011.

Mike well said! I don't have any UTV's, but plan to get one soon. I was thinking of a Polaris but I did have second thoughts because of the comments on your KZread Channel. Thanks for the clarification.

Just stumbled across your video. We just got a 2020 Ranger Crew for our 6 person family here in NW PA. Works great here on our farm and in the woods. I agree with everything you said!

I have the 2013 Ranger XP 900 3 seater, same color. No complaints. It's been a great machine.

Great choice of a machine. I have a 2018 polaris ranger 900xp, and really like it. I use it around the acreage and my horses for everything, hauling hay to pulling my small manure spreader. I also trail ride and went to Wisconsin twice this year and had no problems at all. I get better than 14 mpg and it runs and rides great! I am heading to the Big Horns in July of 2020 and that should be fun. I also have a 2002 polaris 500 that I bought new with a winch and a 6ft snow plow that I am still using and it would be hard to beat it for snow plowing it does great!

I own the exact same Ranger. Perfect for my family of 5 too!!!

My neighbour has the Kubota RTV, built like a tank, great Kubota diesel engine BUT. weighs a ton, very slow and only just fits three small adults. You made a good choice to suit your needs Mike

We bought a Kubota RTV500 and it’s been great for us and our needs. The ranger looks great too. Being able to haul around 3 extra people is a big bonus.

What amazes me most is this is a product that didn’t even exist what, 15 or 20 years ago! It’s awesome the amount of choices there are............ .no matter what brand you choose! Good job Mike.

Just came across your ranger review. I agree with everything you said about it! I have a 2019 xp900 crew and love it. I cut fire wood too, hedge or some call it Osage Orange. Very heavy hard wood. I can load up the back plus pull my trailer without any problems. I know it's not a rugged trail machine like a razor but it's still a great fun machine! I did add a roof , windshield, canvas doors, heater, turn signals and it's road legal now . I do drive in to town for gas and go to lunch and never been stopped. Great fun year around! I do love your videos and you have a great place. Looking forward to more videos. Thank you and God bless 👍

Very well presented 👍🏻, what matter most with machinery , is what the can do for you , it’s a matter of personal opinion and what’s suits you , and the rest is a bonus , and you explain it very well :👍🏻🐸🇫🇷🇮🇪

Just got a 500 and I'm loving it. I like it because it's smaller and easier to get through our woods. I'm disabled and I needed comfort. The wife and I hop in the front and the kids hop on the back. My cousin loves his full size too.

I have a 2019 ranger crew xp 1000 and its quite impressive for anything work or trail related. The storage on the inside is second to none in my opinion. Rides like a big marshmallow. If u decide to get a new crew 1000 i think you’ll be glad u did.

I work for the forest service, we have mules, razors, rangers, gators, and pioneers. They all work great if they are taken care of. I have things I love and dislike about all of them, beats the hell out of walking

Polaris is the way to go,I have a 2006 x2 sportsman, with the small dump,still going keeping my homestread going.

Mike, A little over a year ago, I found your channel while searching "polaris ranger reviews" and watched your first review on the machine. Since then, by following your channel, I've "needed" to buy, a Ranger, utility trailer, JD 3046R, grapple, 5k equipment trailer, of course a bigger truck to pull all this with, a few stihl saws, mingo marker and on and on. You sure are costing me money!! No seriously, I've enjoyed watching your channel grow, it's by far the most relatable out there for me. I too am in the oil and gas industry, thankfully they help support my spending habits. Once again, I appreciate all the work you and your family put into the channel.

Lol you have been busy!

You have to be happy with it. Glad you like it

Great video! This is almost word for word my opinion as well. We will be buying a side by side later this year.

Haters will hate. We love our Ranger crew. Part of the reason we chose it is your channel. Great video

Hello in the woods, winter is coming.....get the firewood home. As for the ATV, it get ye from A to B, carries a load, its a utility vehicle and does what it says on the tin. If you try to please everyone, good luck with that.........ye are doing a great job :)

I agree with your intro...everybody is always saying to get this or that based on their needs. Silly people. Great video nice machine.

I love my Ranger Crew. No regrets!

We have a Polaris Ranger 500 midsize crew 4 seats and 2 dogs in the bed it's been a mountain goat on rocks and has been a solid rig we got it new still on the pallet had to wait until they put it together to bring it home for $8500. in 2013 I was happy to wait that was a great deal.

Hardest working smoothest riding No more words needed

Thanks for the video - great content! Mines a 2016 Ranger Crew - camo, love it!

I live in Northwestern Pennsylvania, I'm about 1/2 hr south east of Erie,Pa. I just subscribed to your channel,and uts nice knowing your from Pennsylvania

Great vehicle....and 5 great reasons! 👍

I have a 570 and love it.

My grandfather bought a Polaris ranger 500 about 10 years ago. Despite his tendency to be kinda rough on equipment, it's still going strong. Had to replace the ignition switch, and he tore an axle boot and bent an A-arm running over an old mobile home axle as the leaf spring hung up in the A-arm. I had to lift the ranger off with a tractor. I replaced the boot, but he refused to have the A-arm replaced. Other than that, it has had no issues.

Great video sir. have been able to watch in while with season coming to a close we’ve been in OD. I’ve been thinking about looking at the rangers

Nice mine holds 350kg in the bed I know when its overloaded it dose not steer so good lol had mine about the same amount of time

Our 900 Ranger helps out more and more as well, great machine, nice platform to be out doing work from / with. Surprised with the dump bed capacity as well (1000# I think offhand) was great moving bags of concrete, etc.

That is such a nice piece of machinery and I'm not talking about you Mike. Haha Take care -Glen

Sounds great. Thanks for keeping everything clean. No profanity. 😉

I enjoyed your review. We have a 2017 900 XPS but a single cab. We are looking at a crew cab because our dog is going to be riding instead of running the half dozen miles to our remote cabin. In a few years. Also we need a taxi to go to the trailhead to bring out friends. So you work in the oil biz, cool. I did many years in oil related work in Alaska.. Seismic, Well Logging Tech, then communications mostly oil related.

Hey Mike....you are right when you say "Its right for us"....there is always gonna be people or viewers who want to give their opinion.....but remember...."Opinions are like assholes.......everybody has one"....so dont worry what they say ....just have fun and enjoy it...... :)

When you are going to trade, check out the Kawasaki 4010 trans mule. You can convert to a 2 row seater, but leave it in 1 bench mode and the box is twice the size. I can put a third of a face cord in mine. Its not fast but is a work horse.

Polaris rules on my 3 Rd machine love em

As long as you guys are happy with it that's all that matters

Mike love all the videos. How about a video about your equipment storage situation? From videos it Looks like a lot of the implements and tractors are left outside? How about the Ranger? Log Splitter? The Kubota? Always looking for new ideas from others!

You and Neil Messick and your buying stuff that meets the needs of you application. You crazy guys.

Great review Mike.

I have a 2016 570 full-size ranger with a plow. I should have got a roof and windshield when I bought it. The only other thing I should have done was gone with the crew model since the kids and grandkids love riding in it.

As always Mike another great video.😂👍

HI Mike, Don't sell the ranger short. I have a 2014 browning edition ranger XP 900 and have been all over Moab with it including hells revenge and I was able to do everything the RZR's did. I have over 9000 miles on mine and it has been extremely reliable. This is my 3rd ranger and I have used them all for serious off road work. They perform better off road than some give them credit. Bottom line is I use mine on the ranch daily as well and is my solid choice for work and play as well. Enjoy!

You bought it, with your money, that’s why it’s perfect for YOU!

rangers are good for you ,its what there built to do work ,exactly how you use it ..

The bottom line is, if the tool works for you, then it's the right tool. I have a 2017 Ranger (2 seater) and an old beater 2004 John Deere Gator that we use on our property. Both machines do what we ask and help us do a lot of work. My Polaris Ranger along with the winch that I added helped me to get my tractor unstuck (don't ask). I eventually want to get a "crew" version of a UTV whether it's another Polaris, John Deere, etc. It would be nice to have when we have family/friends over to give tours of our property.

This Polaris is just amazing outstanding only problem I can’t not afford it so much money. But if I could I definitely would get one

Like your Ranger Mike .

I bought a new Polaris EV (electric vehicle) in 2013 and couldn't be happier. When I moved to the country in 1999, I got by for years with a lifted golf cart - living a half mile off the road even a trip to the mailbox was an adventure. But the Polaris' payload, towing capacity, and traction options have proved to be invaluable. I use mine in much the same way as you do yours, hauling brush, firewood, etc., pulling a spreader for food plots, hauling out a deer or two, mailbox trips, and fun transportation for the grandchildren. So far, I haven't had a single problem with mine, although in my area Polaris is known for being long on sales and short on service. They are particularly ignorant regarding the EV line. Nonetheless, Polaris was a good choice for my needs.

I found it somewhat amusing that you had to even address the nay-sayers concerning your side X side. We use what works best, period! Thanks again, Mike.

We have two Ranger Xp 900’s. 75 acres in the mountains of southern Colorado keeping us busy. The workhorse quality works great for us. All the reasons you described. 😎

Outdoors With The Morgans , yes, I saw that I’m glad you enjoyed. We retire here from Southern CALIFORNIA. Moving added 10 years to my life 😉

@ 2:12 bummer... I'm in rural TN & have mine registered as a medium speed vehicle. We can drive on any roads where the speed limit is up to 45 mph. With where I live I can: take the kids to school, go to the dump, 4 gas stations with grills & 1 dollar store, lol Plus there are tons of trails & falls we visit around here that you can only access on horseback or with an atv. Originally got it as a work horse for our 20 acre homestead & it has been instrumental in gathering fire wood up out of the valley. As a bonus we load it up & go to various off road parks once in a while too. Polaris makes great products & the RANGER is my fav!!! The ONLY issue I've ever had is putting it in PARK on an incline(I'm in the mountains). Shifter once got stuck in a bind. Purchased an aftermarket emergency parking break & problem solved. Keep the great content coming!

I like my ranger too buddy.

Looks like a nice spot to bow hunt

Mike, love the new badass music you picked for the Polaris video! question.. you cut down a 12 in diameter cherry tree, how long until you split by hand and how long until you burn? Thanks!

Love them

I think it is a great little machine, I would like to buy one but I want a right hand drive for Australia.

Mike, you don't have to justify yourself to anyone........just remember......opinions are like "butts", everyone has one....sometimes two........keep up the great work....

Great video

I don't own any UTV's. But if I did I'd definitely own a Polaris ranger

And top reason for the polaris is that it is what YOU want!!!!

When you mount the plow do you set the front spring adjusters to a stiffer setting to keep the nose up?or when loading the rear bed up to level things out?

Nice!

Every brand has its pluses and my minuses, just like cars, and you need to buy what fits your needs and likes. I can say this, I know 3 people with 3 different 2018 and newer Honda's. All three have major transmission issues where it goes squirly. Typically uphill too. I've owned AC, Suzuki, Polaris, and Kymco. They are all great in their own ways.

when tires ware out go to 28" will give more ground clearance and radials are best [big horn tires].i also notice your shocks are set down low twist the adjusters to high will keep it from squating so much.should change belt around 4000 miles

I see your point on this Polaris,..but I like my CanAm,....so it's to each his own, isn't it. Whatever,...this one serves you well, so that's an end to it!

You have what you want! ... people telling you, "you should this and that" I had that when building my house. I started passing the hammer and saw to them... the "you should" stopped quite fast a lot of ignorant people in this world! Lol.

Hi I have a 2015 900 crew also. Looked like your rear shocks are on their softest setting? You ever try cranking them up? I have mine all the way stiff for payloads and towing

Ive driven many side by sides and still have dam yet not had the opportunity to own one my favourites have been a John Deere Gator and a Polaris Ranger single cab its efi either 800 or 900 recently I have been using the Ranger quite often for the farmer I help out I had a load of framing lumber and drywall to haul from an old trailer placed on a trail many years ago that Ranger practically hauled everything out! I had the bed loaded to cab with drywall, the suspension was loaded climbing mud slopes with out to much issue!

John Deere’s are a nice machine. Only downside it seems JD has them on lock with proprietary parts and such. Maybe that’s changed in recent times.

I'm looking at the Polaris Brutus diesel.

Super

I have 2 Polaris Sportsman one is a 1999 the other 2000 and have had had no problems with them. Would buy a Ranger everyone I no that has a Polaris loves them All wheel drive not 4 wheel or locking differential. Good strong motors. The 1000 is the way to go if you want to go bigger.

I dont want to be the bear of bad news to the haters but rangers are awesome! Very well built for the $ and last! I love Polaris in general.. utvs and ATVs..

Mike you like it and that's important, but more importantly, Melissa likes it and that's all that matters. :-)

Everyone has an opinion and the only one that matters is yours and your family Mike

Hey dry informative video, I think I heard you say you were from Western Pa . ? If true .. what part , I’m from central Pa ... is it near Pittsburgh .. thank you. Craig. Pa Guy

Mike, you should not have gotten a Ranger... Lol I'm just kidding. Looks like a very good rig!

I understand all the positive points you make Mike but you didn't mention price. How did it compare with the other brands you considered, what did it cost and what's its value now?

Not all side by side are created equil no matter which one you get there is good and bad in all of them it's mainly what works good for you

Kubota side by sides are great machines But very limited to where it can go the ranger can go anywhere

So the Mars/Evans City PD took exception to you driving into town?

have the 2 seater (they say 3, not really) Polaris Ranger now - just looked at a 2019 Ranger Crew NorthStar - thinking that heat and A/C may be nice at times.

I know I’m a little late but after having my 2013 900 for 8 years I’ve had any times I wish I had heat ac I can live without but heat especially when I’m plowing plus the other features of the north star I’d buy it!

What maintenance has been required. I have a 2014 Ranger diesel now with 11000+ miles on it--all doing ranch work. Been good overall, but have had to change all wheel bearings and wheel drive shafts at least once. Seems like all Rangers splay out the rear and front ends--think they may under spring them for the ride at the expense of long term load. Sure would be nice to see how the other brands hold up --but all considered I am satisfied.

O no Mike looking For a Polaris Sponsorship!

And number six--its the one you want.

The RK Tractor Guy doesn’t have one for you to test out??? kidding, but bottom line is it works for you so to heck with the naysayers.. LOL

Hey Mike have you ever heard of Vineyard Oil & Gas out of Northeast, PA? I worked for them back in the early 80's.

@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans

Ok just curious when you mentioned you worked in the industry. Vineyard had many oil and gas leases in Northwest PA western New York and northeast Ohio. I also worked for Buford Drilling out of Clodine, Texas we did a lot of work for Texaco. I am related to Edwin L. Drake from Titusville, PA who drilled the first oil well in PA back in 1859.

I have a 2012 Ranger 800 crew and overall have been happy with it after I corrected a few issues. Started off with factory steel wheels and went through 3 tires and bent two rims in two months. We have alot of rocky terrain and multiple trails cross our creek. Switched to aluminum wheels and 8 ply tires and that issue was resolved. The Ranger ground clearance is better than most other UTV's although I still have some nice gashes and holes in the floor. I should have went with a heavy steel skid plate. I have to also watch the load in the bed when going up the trails with over a 25 degree slope angle (over 45 % slope). I have had to rely on the winch on those trails when it is wet and muddy. It is also a bit sluggish when crossing the creek when the water runs over the floor. All in all it still serves me well and and eventually when I replace it I will make some of the upgrades from the start.

I'm getting ready to order the Ranger Crew and am trying to decide steel vs poly roof. Any comments please?
