May Equipment Highlight

31 May

It is the last Tuesday in May 2011 so it is the last day for our May Equipment Highlight showcasing John Deere. There are companies that offer utility vehicles, these are the John Deere offerings.

XUV 825i 4x4

The 8251 Crossover XUV

Choice of colors
  • Available in 3 color schemes: John Deere Green & Yellow or Olive & Black (Shown) or REALTREE HARDWOODS HD® Pattern.
Power VS Pretenders
  • 50 HP, 812cc, 3 cylinder, DOHC, EFI 4-cycle automotive-style engine has the most displacement and power in its class.
  • 44 mph top speed for barreling down a trail or crossing a pasture.
  • 75 Amp alternator generates 1012 Watts of electricity – plenty of juice for accessories.
  • Excellent low-end torque for towing, hauling and climbing hills.
  • Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) for superior throttle response and power; provides instant starting in all types of weather and at high altitudes.
  • Two-range CVT transmission requires no shifting and delivers for superior efficiency from low-speed pulling to fast top speed.
  • Advanced clutching with a tighter belt provides increased acceleration.
Confidence VS Terrain
  • Select a completely turf friendly mode of operation, or press the switch and get on-demand 4-wheel drive for climbing the toughest trails. Rear differential can be locked so the rear drive wheels push together through tough spots.
  • Independent double-wishbone long-travel suspension (8-inches in front and 9-inches to rear) ensure all four wheels stay on the ground working for you. 11-inch ground clearance helps prevent vehicle from getting high-centered.
  • A solid core steel sway bar reduces body lean and employs an efficient double-ball drop-link for increased durability.
  • Vehicle has one of the highest static stability factors in the industry thanks to a wide-stance, low-center of gravity and long wheelbase.
  • Full-clutch enclosure provides greater access through water up to 22 inches high. Standard muffler is equipped with a spark arrestor
  • Standard Occupant Protection System (OPS) with a passenger-side hand-hold and 3-point seat belts is SAE and OSHA ROPS-certified.
Capability VS A Day’s Work
  • Biggest cargo box in its class, with 16.4 cubic feel of capacity, 20 tie down points, pickup-style tailgate, steel reinforced load guard and bed, glass-filled polymer sides, standard gas-assist for easier dumping. Converts to flat-bed in minutes.
  • Cargo box has optional factory spray-in bedliner and power lift.
  • Exclusive Quick-Clamp rail-based attaching system enables adding attachments like gun-boots, tool racks, sidewall extensions and more in seconds.
  • Independent double-wishbone long-travel suspension is designed to offer a superior ride without squatting whether unloaded to or carrying max capacity.
  • 1,000 lb. cargo box capacity, 1,500 lb. towing and 1,400 lb. payload capacity.
  • Standard integrated 2-inch front and rear receiver hitches.
Engineering VS The Real World
  • Heavier-duty engine components, like an aluminum head, cast block with painted interior and crank and thrust bearings ensure long life.
  • Hydroformed frame offers exceptional tolerance for twi
    sting under heavy loads.
  • Engineered ductile front cast-iron A-Arms balance strength and weight and are designed to withstand jackhammer trails.
  • Full-steel skid plates guard underbody.
  • Engineered polymer body panels (JDLOY) can be painted and provides improved scratch and marring resistance/recoverability.
Gator™ HPX 4x4 Diesel
If you are more of a traditional utility vehicle than try the John Deere HPX 4X4
Reliable/Durable
  • 854 cc (20.8 hp), three-cylinder, liquid-cooled, 4-cycle Yanmar diesel engine delivers 33 ft. lbs. of torque (4.6 kgm) @ 2500 RPM
  • Indirect injection diesel with glow plugs ensures fast starts in cold temperatures
  • Self-bleeding fuel system includes a water separator; eliminates the need to bleed the lines when performing routine maintenance or when the unit is drained of fuel
  • Industry-exclusive hydroformed steel frame provides added strength, rigidity, and durability
  • Heavy-duty 16-gauge-steel, 11.3 cu. ft. capacity cargo box hauls up to 1,000 lb (454 kg)
  • Payload and towing capacity of 1,400 lb (635 kg) lets you tackle any task
  • Two-speed continuously variable transmission allows for optimal towing, hauling, and pulling in low gear up to 12 mph (19 kph) and transport in high gear up to 25 mph (40 kph)
  • Long lasting hydraulic disc brakes feature a dual-circuit master cylinder and large calipers for ultimate stopping power
  • Rugged, heavy-duty bumper protects front end of vehicle
  • Occupant Protection System (OPS) with multiple grab handles and 3-pt. seat belts is SAE ROPS certified
Stable
  • Best-in-class stability for assurance at higher speeds and on inclines
  • Low center of gravity enhances stability and handling
  • Enhanced 4-wheel suspension is tuned to cushion you when carrying a full load or when empty
  • Smooth Steer Technology reduces steering effort by up to 30 percent, especially in 2WD
Go Anywhere Capability
  • On-demand “true” 4-wheel drive gives you total control; select a completely turf friendly mode of operation, or press the switch and get on-demand 4-wheel drive for climbing the toughest trails
  • Rear traction assist locks the rear drive wheels together to push through tough spots
  • Standard heavy-duty, all purpose tires are great for most terrain types; optional (aggressive) high-performance all terrain tires (shown above) and (turf friendly) turf tires are available to deliver the traction you need
  • Optional automotive-style deluxe glass cab and other weather protection accessories for the OPS are available to keep you going in almost any weather condition
  • Utility vehicles are intended for off-road use only
Regardless of what you want for a utility vehicle for, John Deere has what you need. Check out Deere.com or visit you local dealer for more information. This concludes our May Equipment as the calendar shifts toward June as does our Equipment Highlight.
