I am going to buy a maverick or wildcat X in the next 2 weeks. I have driven both in a very small area with no way to tell which is better so I am relying on you all to help steer me in the right direction. The cat had power steering and does have more travel. I wonder if the longer stance would help in hill climbing and stability vs the maverick. Please share any experience you may have in hill climbing. I have had atvs, dirtbikes and a jeep rubicon and hoping this will satisfy my off road enjoyment since I no longer have any of that now. The maverick was definitely more comfortable to sit in and has a nicer cockpit. I was unable to gauge power or suspension in the limited area available at the dealer I mostly ride black dirt or clay. Sometimes sand and rock but not often. I am usually on tighter trails. I wont something that wont be a mechanical money pit. Its an expensive toy and I don't want to burn through more money at it just to keep it running. Unbiased advice would be appreciated supported by some basis of why one or the other is better. Thank you all.

      Maverick Windshield?
      By Blekntowkz
      I have an X3 Max and I currently run the Can-Am rearview mirror alongside a Swamp Donkey stereo system mounted to the roof. Is anyone here familiar with this exact setup? 
      I’m looking to upgrade to a proper can-am Maverick x3 max front windshield made of glass so I can run a manual wiper. Does everything clear the stereo and mirror mounts just fine, or are there clearance issues? Also, which glass windshields out there are actually worth spending the money on?
      I currently have the Can-Am hard-coated poly windshield, but I am really tired of not having a wiper and having to constantly stop and squeegee after hitting a few mud puddles or dealing with this Michigan snow, mud, and water holes!
      Any advice would be huge.

      Hoping someone out there somewhere can help.....2019 Massimo Buck 400S
      By AaronD1982
      Onto the next problem, everything has been replaced in the charging system except the Flywheel Rotor, I have it torn apart all the way down to said rotor, but it is suggested that a specific puller is required, and a compatible rotor seems virtually impossible to find.  I can find many like it, but this one is mine scenario for those that get the reference.  For all I know I have the last Massimo Buck 400S on the planet and will never find another part again, but who knows.  Any ideas, help or otherwise that anyone might have would be greatly appreciated.

      Coleman 400 wiring help
      By Mitch13
      2022 Coleman 400 with 13 hours on the engine and the mice got to it. Every wire coming out of the steering column in one cluster has been eaten through. I tried reconnecting matching wire colors to each other and I get the left turn signal and hazards to work, nothing else. If I play around a bit I can get the horn to honk or headlights to come on but only when I connect them to the brown wire. Obviously I don't know what I am doing here. Does anyone have a picture of how these wires are connected when they are under the hood on the drivers side coming from the steering column?
      Gray - seems to carry power
      Brown - left turn signal
      Green with purple stripe - hazards?
      Pink with red stripe - horn?
      Green - head lights?
      Yellow - head lights?
      Yellow with red stripe?
      Blue?
      Dark green?
      There is also a bundle hanging under the hood not connected to anything green with yellow strip, brown and blue?
      Other than that issue, I am about ready to sell this for parts if you interested let me know.
      Thanks
