I have the 2022 roxor. Done a few modifications and two 1400 mile road trips. It's holding up good so far. But the newer roxors with 5.38 gear Axles can't go that fast so I only go on roads were the speed limit is 65 or less. I can go 55 to 60 mph without pushing the engine to hard.

These aren't built for speed. That gear ratio I have as well in my 2020 and love the granny gear when climbing..

Unless you have a charge air kit, and a rx41 turbo with a intake correction kit I STRONGLY advise going above 60mph especially for long distances. The coolant temps alone will shoot up beyond what is safe. I noticed pre mods vs post mods. As another member say not built for speed, I can hit 80mph but I decide to keep it 55mph to 60mph. 80mph feels very uneasy for me

I haven't installed any of those items. I agree with you on the speed I try to maintain 2200 - 2300 rpm's. I figured that should be a safe range because that is the pto operation rpm's for most tractors.
I need to come up with some sort of curse control for it because it's tiring otherwise.

Per the roxors manual the power band with is anywhere from 2000 rpm to 3500 rpms. The roxor can handle the high 2000 rpms low 3000 rpms all day, with the right mods to help reduce the heat formation

Hey fellas, I've been interested in the Roxor since I first learned of them. I envision using it as more of a run-around rig than a sxs with frequent 20-30 mile trips across dirt roads, 30 mile trips across blacktop to the next town over. So, I picture using it more like a daily driver than a weekend toy. Does Roxor fit this bill? Does anyone use theirs in this capacity? How many miles and any problems along the way? Licensing should not be an issue, fwiw.
i have 2019 Roxor. down here in Tucson I drive mine daily(over 5K miles)
had have no problems. Climb rocks, dirt roads, and around town. Got OX locker in rearend,
gage set, warn hubs, full rag top,turn signals, wrench, stage II turn, drive it 60-65 mph
30+ mph. drive the mountian roads in the White mountians of Arizona. the Roxor does it all
Its just an ol' simple Jeep. (cat delete, EGR removerd)
Love my ROXOR....

From what I have been reading it sounds like a leaf spring and shock absorber upgrade is popular. I'd bet that getting a longer spring under the front end with improved dampening would soften up the ride quality quite a bit.
Thanks for the info, I was under the impression these had D30s under the front end. Sounds like they built these with upgrading in mind by putting a 44 under there from the factory! I'm not a jeep guy, but I'm not sure if any jeeps in the past came with a 44 front from the factory? It seems all my jeep-wheeling buddies were either putting a 44 under the front, or putting Yota axles front and rear.
Are these mahindra trannys a 4 speed or a 3 speed?
5sp main and two sp transferr, As mine is a 2019 with the 3.73 axles, I'm running 2000 rpm at 60mph. Just purrs along nicely. When down below 50 it feels like the engine is almost lugging asking for 4th gear. Bought it new in 19 and have had no issues whatsoever. Had it chipped and restrictor removed before I even drove it. Has been flawless. I did put some 10x15x30 shoes on it lately and did a run with 25 other Jeeps. Had some fun pulling out 7 that got stuck on some small hills where as mine just idled up.
Only cosmetic changes have been a cj windshield with wipers and a cj rollcage. I built the cab with steel doors, but mostly use plywood halfdoors. Gives me a bit more elbow room.

I have a 2020 with stage 1.
Have 22,000 miles. Zero problems.
Use mine on farm and driving to work about 20 miles one way twice a week. Easy to park out shopping. Only problem- my wife loves to drive it to work too.
