Reliability that pays

John Deere brings many features together to deliver reliability and cost effectiveness. Our advanced electronics and excellent engine management controls have allowed us to extend oil maintenance intervals up to 25,000 miles and spark plug changes up to 50,000 miles. The advanced electronics package also lets your maintenance people diagnose and repair problems quickly and efficiently. Diesel-like fuel economy, longer service intervals, easier servicing, less downtime, and longer engine life - they all add up to lower operating costs for your fleet.
