I got my trailer with my SxS in mind. It can carry the SxS and the SxS can pull the trailer. 77"x14', with 5k lb axle.

I need to widen a couple of spots to fit the trailer all around the property.

The SxS is a bit heavy for its size due to it being EV.

It came with the receiver. I use the same hitch i use on my truck.

When it's time to replace the batteries, if they're lead acid, look into lithiums. Much lighter, no watering.

The most used accessory on my Honda Pioneer is the front mounted two inch hitch receiver. I use it for spotting trailers mostly, but it can also double as an attach point for my winch line when using a snatch block.

For a dome light, I found some roll bar mounted velcro lights so that I didn't have to run wiring...

Also found some velcro roll bar mountable hand grabs that my much shorter wife needs to get in and out...

For day-to-day work, the most underrated add-on has been a Polaris Ranger Midsize 570 tinted windshield. Cuts glare, keeps dust out, and makes long hours way more tolerable. Also added a small overhead switch panel for lights, sprayer pump, and a backup alarm. Didn’t realize how handy that would be.

I have a glass windshield for my Polaris Ranger. Only use it in the winter. I take it out during the warm dry season. The thing is heavy, but should never need replacing due to scratching or fogging.

Kubota RTV-X1100C. It came from the dealer with the Boss 6-way plow so I won't count that.

I got an extra pair of worksite tires for the rear, and a set of diamond pattern chains - no removing/remounting chains; just swap out chained for non-chained tire pairs.

I added a heavy gauge wire and Anderson Power Pole connector to the battery. All my off-property vehicles have these so I can jump easily, as well as quickly/conveniently run water pumps, sprayers, winch, chargers, etc.

I added a Farm Boy 3-point hitch to the rear. Good for a york rack, lightly loaded pallet forks, garbage can lifter, middle buster; anything under 400 lbs reportedly.

Added front and rear LED auxiliary lights as well.

Ok, so my wife is concerned about snow removal if I am away, very rare, or am injured/ill, most likely. She wanted a utv, no frills, just a plow. Knowing how cold it gets when "just sitting" I convinced her to get a cab. Shopped for a few months, and found a new 2025 CF Moto 1000. Equipt with full cab, summer "doors" plow, mirrors, winch with remote, glass front and back windows, wiper system, mirrors inside and out, 4x4. Just finished the maiden voyage of about 4" of snow, in 2 wheel drive. I know that isn't a real test, but absolutely 0 issues, other than putting in 4x4 to get out of road culvert. No heat, but from what I read, these get warm inside, and it's true. Still unsure if I need to add a fan to blow on windshield to defog. today it was not needed. Don't want to buy what I don't need.
At the dealership, it was sitting next to other ones, same model, less some options, for the same price. Ours had 8 hours on it and delivery guy said it was a corporate utv that they brought to trade shows. our use will be light, snow plowing, firewood hauling, watering apple trees, and the sort. Thinking about a 110v outlet, but time will tell if I need it. Upgrading with the right utv parts can make a big difference down the road. I know it's not a Kubota, Kioti, Honda, Bobcat, but for the price we paid, after reading tons of reviews, and the amount of use it will get, we are happy with the purchase.
LED light bars, winches, plows, and racks are common, but standouts include 110V power inverters, mounted air compressors, sprayer tanks, fuel transfer tanks, chainsaw scabbards, and heated cab enclosures. A quality cab enclosure is probably the most underrated for year-round work.

^This.

I need a machine to use no matter what the conditions, not something I'll use only when its a nice day out there. Love my Can-am with the factory cab.

Same, we'd get a cab. No returning to 1943 for us. :oops:

2023 Mule SX Fi accessories:
Amazon windshieild, receiver hitch, seat cover, underseat storage box. Factory roof. Kawasaki clamp-on bed rail tool mounts. I bought a roll of 1/4 inch rubber gym floor mat from Amazon and cut out a cab and bed floor mats.

I made up four D-ring tiedown plates that mount to the Kaw clamp-on tool mounts. Also made a bed extender that mount to the clamp-on tool mounts.

50 gal tank for watering trees.

Will be stealing this idea to make some tool holders for the clamp-on tool mounts.

We bought a poly glassed cab once and never would again.

At that point I would probably consider an older inline 6 cylinder jeep. Probably cheaper too.

I would not give up my chainsaw holder for anything!

It is almost 20 years old, and still works like new!
My chainsaw goes with me wherever I go, unless it is to town where I may park on the street.

Some people have no respect for other people’s property.

Also I built a paper towel holder out of 6” pvc pipe, and used test plugs on each end for access.
Protects the paper towel, and you always have some when you need them.

I have an older inline 6 Jeep also. And have had for more years than I care to remember. Kind of hard to haul some of the stuff I carry in the bed of the Can-am in the cab of the Jeep! Plus, I also go on trail rides in the Can-am, over trails I'd hate to take the Jeep. Not that the Jeep couldn't get there - it would just beat me to death getting there. The Can-am rides SOOOO much smoother on rough trails.

Since I got the Can-am, pretty much the only time I drive the Jeep is when I have a Search and Rescue callout.

I know many people think we could just buy a jeep instead of a side-by-side but we like to ride the off-road trails in Minnesota and you can’t take a jeep on all of them, but I can take a side-by-side
