You need a buddy in Texas to do it, and sell it to you. We used to do this with Supermoto's.

But what about maintenance on the sxs after 5+ yrs in delta gumbo? AS I understand on the ROXOR the axle parts, u-joints, etc. are basically Willys parts/can be found at NAPA, etc.

How do you buy insurance for a Roxor and on road use?

In MS it's technically legal to drive an ATV or UTV on the road. If you piss off the cop he just writes you a laundry list of tickets like improper equipment, no tag, no proof of insurance......

In louisiana, just buy insurance. They have to cover you anywhere. Required by statute.

Are you advocating for the reliability of Indian made bearings over Japanese, American, or... At worst... Mexican?

Buy whatever makes you happy, but by the around of things you would be better off with a first gen nissan xterra... For a whopping 4k

Got tboned on airline and state trooper ticketed the other driver.

So no.

Insurance laws in Louisiana force insurers to cover you no matter where you operate the vehicle.

Please don't spread misinformation

You got Tboned on Airline while you were operating a UTV on airline highway?

Something isn’t adding up.

Your homeowners policy will exclude motor vehicles and your operation there of for liability. That why you have auto policies.

ETA If you have an auto policy that’s somewhat correct. Most policies will cover the operation of your vehicle in any US state, it’s territories, Canada, and Mexico. Outside of that, nah bruh.

My old man changes bearings, cv joints, etc at least annually on his old saki mule. I’m saying ive heard the axle and chassis parts for the roxor are available locally.

Id reckon no matter what you use in that fine delta mud will wear on it, I guess it depends on what you prefer working on.

Used to be true on the ones made with IH tooling at the plant in India.

Then....they outsourced many of the models to TYM in Korea, even the subcompact has been through two completely different manufacturers and platforms in the last couple years. Parts and support for anything Mahindra has become a catastrophe.

Then....they made the biggest mistake of them all. They wouldn’t allow their Mahindra dealers who sold tractors and the original side by sides to sell the Roxor unless they had 2 major powersports brands already.

So now you have motorcycle dealerships trying to troubleshoot HPCR diesel engines that none of their techs have ever seen before.

Not really. There are a few people in this very thread who can vouch for my street UTV usage. I10, i49, i55. And everywhere in between.

If you put a 350cc Honda motor in your wildcat, it would still have a better power to weight ratio

It's an underpowered POS.

Just get the ECU flashed and it surely isn’t.
Multiple companies offer these upgrades.
The Roxor is as close as you can get to a real Jeep.
