A Mule is built to work, and on a lot of farms it works hardest in winter. The Firestorm HT_CU_439 is made for the 2016-2026 Kawasaki Mule FX 820 and 1000, using engine coolant to make up to 18,000 BTU in the cab. Two defrost vents keep the windshield clear for early chores, and the driver and passenger each get a vent.
