How does the maverick do on climbing?

 

[jonyb]

Does awesome. Make sure to keep it in low gear.

 

[Benzo]

it will climb a hill better then any other stock sxs u seen going up the hill

 

[AReed]

Having the weight mid car makes a huge difference climbing, also the rear arms don't get hung up on the break over.

 

[mallard91]

Sounds great. I pick mine up at the end of the week I'm pumped up

WRONG!!!!! my T4 crawls like a mofo with ALL 4 tires spinning ALL the time.

 

[Driller77]

All 4 of my tires spin all the way up bud. And the 14's come with the qe so he should be fine. It climbs like a goat man, enjoy your new ride. Make sure u pick one up with power steering

It depends on the type of hill your climbing whether or not your in low. Hard pack dirt hills where you can't get a run at it then you need low gear. Steep & slower hills I would use low but also get the sport low mode so you can keep your rpm's in the correct range. Large long hills like sand dunes I use only high gear.

i disagree. fully locked and the canam limited slip, spin to sorta lock is two different things. When the canam has a front tire in the air does it spin or freewheel?

not bashing the Mav but replying to Frank's comment.

the maverick will blow by a t4 on any hill ! what u talking about willis

mavericks don't crawl sir

 

[C.Moore]

Why crawl when you can bounce? Crawling is for babies lol

I'm redi to try the hill climbing abilities of this unit. I never had any problems climbing hills with my other SXS s for as 4 wheel drive. Ran outa motor a few times, that was Scarey backing down hills.

I don't care if u disagree. Go climb some hills with me before u tell me what my maverick is doing! It doesn't matter what wheel is in the air it will be doing what the other tire on the ground is doing. I have effortlessly climbed hills that I've seen wildcat owners stress over and hills that trex owners don't have the balls to try. Please don't talk about stuff u know nothing of. Only thing the maverick was missing was qe.

Which costs $1000 to put on a 13? There has to be a better way if you need something like that.

 

[Glamisfan]

Nope, no better way.

 

[Glamisfan]

Except eBay.

 

[mallard91]

Yeah I'm getting a 13 because of the deal I ain't worried about power steering for right now

 

[desertdog]

The most important thing on these SxS is a reliable engine with HP. Thats a rotax!! The Maverick has that, any other item it doesn't have can be added. No other SxS has the rotax power and reliabilty! So climb away.

I have sport low - that I made myself instead of paying $200.... So that's why I always ride in low. Your avatar shows your rig on a dune, and that's not the type of hills i"m talking about. I ride in woods and rocks, and there's no way I'd go in high. That's just asking for a belt to be smoked.

Nope. Part of the deal from my dealer was that at the price I paid for my Maverick, the QE was provided and installed. When you go buy a new one, use that as a negotiating factor to throw in the QE.

 

[BAMA-S]

Mannnnn ,this thing has torque that's unreal..... I thinks I'm gonna like it. They gave me a two yr warranty . Soooo I'm gonna .ride.dont think hill climbs will be any problems.
