can am never made promises that its the end all be all car like robby did.

This video alone is proving how successful these cars will be. They have everyone's attention. That is a massive achievement all on it's own. We live in a world chalked full of experts that are still working hourly jobs. When you have those people flocking towards every post centered around your product the sales will come easy. Personally it's tough to ignore those people's lack of education. I'm a fighter. To pull punches and walk away from an idiot is really tough. But this entire process has been very eye opening to me as a small business owner. It's easy to regurgitate one liners but to actually come to terms with the fact that negative attention is good attention in business... yeah that's harder than people know. I'm learning though.

I agree with you and find it hard not to argue with the willfully ignorant. I am always willing and love to have an informative discussion about these machines. And I don't understand how, after looking at all the facts, design, and intent behind it between all three options, being analytical and using critical thinking skills, I came to the choice of the Speed, but I'm the "fanboy" and a "Robby nut swinger". I got better at just staying out of it and to stop arguing with a wall. Stupid people make me mad. But taking that step back, I noticed every SxS group I am in are constantly posting and talking about Speed. For now, I think all the negative regurgitated bs is hurting to a degree. But in the long run, once all the bugs are worked out and there are thousands of cars running around, people will take notice and will get support.

I think if we all took a look back at how Polaris and can am started off we can find plenty of mistakes. This small team starting and entire new brand on this level and scale is incredible it would take someone that’s and entrepreneur to understand and respect the process. his reputation is on the line and that’s what drove him to do this in the first place this is also why people will be treated first class when it comes to sorting out the issues that come up.

Awesome impression/review video Nic!👌 What are your thoughts on the hydraulic power steering?

If I remember correctly RG said they are taking forever to deliver the speed utv because they are testing all vehicles so the consumer have a product they can rely on. That's why pre-production vehicles were taken to different terrains to dial in.

Awesome job on the video. How was the power steering feed back? And how low is low gear compared to a Can am?

Really its not hard to make a UTV better then a CanAm or a Polaris, as all that have ever owned them and really used them know they are just junk, belts suck, suspension breaks, everything junk. I have talked to countless people who prerun Baja and have rental companies in the Baja that have changed over to the Honda Talon and simply do not have all these problems and no belts to wear out or break as it has a proper gearbox. Good on Robbie for making the Speed one but I feel he's trying to re-invent the wheel. Time will tell.

Hello, and thank you for the review. I got to see you climb in your car at the grand opening. I have my deposit on one as well. Overall, this car has extreme potential. With that said, there were some things that really bothered my wife and I. I am a quality assurance engineer and wrenched my entire life-so naturally, I see things that others don’t at times. I was disappointed with some things on the cars. The exterior fit and finish was disappointing and the assembly was disappointing as well. A $70k car shouldn’t have peeling away graphics, or marring on the control arms or the cage from assembly and/or tooling. For example, on several cars, the cages looked like old seat posts of a bicycle frame with the zig-zagged scratches resulting from the twisting back and forth action trying to pull it apart. The window net clamps were slid over the cage in a similar fashion during installing which caused this same type of scratching. I can go on but, Robby needs to focus on establishing a quality management system because I can tell the manufacturing processes are not yet mature.

Have you been able to pick up your car can't wait to hear about real world driving experience

Nick, did they give you an owner's manual or online one with videos for maintenance? Is there a part's catalog to order parts as needed?

Atleast the guy that cracked his transmission is getting a new one because of another defect. Maybe he gets the thicker skid now lol

Hi Nick, as others have said...thanks so much for putting this video together so soon. All of us "pre orders" are anxious to hear everything and anything. Couple of questions if you don't mind... 1. Do you know the specs on the stock factory full skid plate? 2. Sounded like a lot of noise from squeaking, rattles and suspension noise on the video. Do you feel it is more, less or about the same as the other SXSs? 3. Did your car come with 32" or 33" tires? Thanks! David #3385

It's hard to ignore a brand new car needing towed within the first 20 miles, regardless of the reason, especially when you take into account the totality of everything that's been going on. I don't think people would be so forgiving to take home a Pro R and have to tow it home on the first ride.
