Deere Wraps Up Season One of Its “Skid-Steer Smackdown”

John Deere Construction & Forestry recently introduced a new video on its Skid-Steer Smackdown website that recaps the head-to-head contests between John Deere and competitor skid steers and compact track loaders that were launched last April. It also offers a look ahead at Season Two.

The video can be seen at www.skidsteersmackdown.com by clicking on “The Battles.”

“The Ultimate Skid Steer Smackdown” was filmed before a live audience, and the first-of-its-kind website not only features the machine vs. machine challenges, but also a discussion forum, buying information, video sharing capability and a “Prove It” section that looks at the key specs and parameters driving the contests.

“‘Prove It’ will be the theme of Season Two of The Ultimate Skid-Steer Smackdown,” said Sam Norwood, manager, John Deere Commercial Worksite Products. “I don’t want to give much away, but you’ll be seeing more machines, more operators and more real-world challenges. And more surprises — you’ll just have to log on and watch.”

Deere & Co., Moline, Ill., is a leading provider of advanced products and services for agriculture and forestry and a major provider of advanced products and services for construction, lawn and turf care, landscaping and irrigation.
