The time has officially come.
On March 4, 2026, Turn 14 Distribution announced the winner of its inaugural powersports-focused vehicle build, the Turn 14 Distribution x Bilstein Can-Am Maverick X3. What started as a bold idea turned into a full-scale project, unveiled under the desert sun at the 2025 Sand Sports Super Show. Now, one winner will take home the keys for plenty of adventures in this purpose-built off-roader.
This build marked a milestone for Turn 14. While automotive projects have long been part of the company’s DNA, this Maverick represents the first dedicated powersports giveaway build. It’s a statement of commitment to a rapidly growing segment and the dealers, brands, and enthusiasts who fuel it.
The Build: Engineered to Lead From the Front
From the beginning, the objective was straightforward: showcase the platform’s full potential and build a UTV ready to tackle any terrain.
What started as a bone-stock Maverick X3 X RS Turbo RR evolved into the Turn 14 Distribution x Bilstein Can-Am Maverick X3.
With Bilstein as the title partner, this build was designed to demonstrate what happens when premium brands align around performance. The Maverick X3 was selected not just for its dominance in the side-by-side market, but for what it represents: a benchmark platform capable of serious performance when properly equipped.
Suspension was anchored by Bilstein, showcasing the new Blackhawk line to establish the foundation for a machine built to handle high-speed desert runs, dunes, and technical terrain alike. From there, the build came together with purpose.
Presenting partners, including Baja Designs, MBRP, ARP, Method Wheels, Tensor Tires, XKGlow, Vibrant Performance, and DragonFire, helped shape the Maverick into a cohesive, performance-driven package. Each component was selected to enhance capability, durability, and visual presence without compromising function.
Additional contributions from Gieser Performance, Electrik Offroad Designs, Brian Crower, Dynojet, Rhino USA, Maxima Racing Oils, EBC Brakes, Odyssey Battery, Rugged Radios, Superwinch, PRP Seats, Seizmik, and EPI Products further elevated the build, rounding out a platform engineered to perform from the suspension down to the smallest fastener.
None of this would be possible without our build partner, either. The installation and fine-tuning of all of these upgrades was handled by One Off-Road, whose expertise brought the entire vision together. The result isn’t a parts list on wheels. It’s a fully realized performance build that reflects the depth of Turn 14 Distribution’s powersports portfolio.
And the Winner Is…
Now, the build moves from spotlight to driveway.
Congratulations to:
[WINNER NAME HERE]
This Maverick is officially headed to its new home.
From its debut in front of thousands at the Sand Sports Super Show to the moment the keys were handed over to its new owner, this project has been more than a giveaway. It has served as a statement—demonstrating the depth of Turn 14 Distribution’s powersports portfolio and the strength of the brand partnerships behind it.
What’s Next
The momentum continues.
Two additional giveaways are already in motion—a Mustang build and a Jeep Gladiator build—each following in the Maverick’s tire tracks with the same formula: collaboration, premium components, and performance-driven execution.
More details will be announced soon.
