I have the pro fxt. It’s great for working around the house and cruising around. Great for hunting. Very reliable. I did want more speed, ground clearance, and bolstered seats when we went to Arkansas to trail ride. I’d go can am if you plan to do more aggressive off roading.

I have had great luck with CanAm machines in the past so my decision was easy. I can tell you there is a lot more room in the Defender compared to the Ranger.

For the tie downs, I bought two wheel chocks that connect right into the etrack and then I strap each tire with a 12 foot long, 3 inch strap. The machine does not even move when all 4 tires are strapped down and doing it this way allows the suspension to move with the bumps going down the road.
On another note. I also bought the windshield cover from Profab Outdoors and it is a really nice padded cover that has two straps that connect on the inside of the windshield. It protects the windshield from rock chips going down the road. The replacement cost for a windshield is pushing $1000 dollars so the cover is cheap insurance.

I do think the can-ams are built a little stouter. Saying that we have 2 Ranger 1000 Xp's. The 2018 goes out of state Elk and mule deer hunting with us every yr all over the Rockies and gets abused. Legit has been through 100x what any Texas deer lease can throw at it yearly with ZERO issues and never been in the shop except for maintenance. The 2019 is at our deer lease and sits outside all season, once again has had zero issues. I would go with what I can get the best deal on with the cost these days.

Fxt or can am. I've had both and either one is a great machine to be honest. I put my fxt through hell and it never gave me a single problem . Overall I'd say the fxt was smoother riding over rough terrain but lacks the power the can am has. That being said I have moved my 21 ft bass boat with it along with loaded down trailers at the lease. Have a can am now pushing 100 hours or so and it's been great so far. We will see how it holds up compared to the fxt

Both mine and my dads 2022 northstar big game editions where 34K
Sharp machine Wyobull i like that windshield cover. I dont haul either of ours much but thats a no brainer as those windshields are easy to crack being hauled.Last edited by dclifton; 01-25-2023, 09:33 AM.
