A John Deere quad track is now on the market as many green lovers have anticipated for years.
This video shows the newest tractor in the John Deere line up. The link will take you to a video John Deere has created to give you full insight on why the new 9RX tractor has all the bells and whistles a farmer could ever want.

Example of benefits:
- Larger Footprint-more flotation
- Mud and debris rejection
- Doesn't require daily oil inspections
- E-18 transmission with efficiency manager adds to ease of driving
- JD Link Connect and AutoTrac ready
- Wireless data transfer
These are just a few examples of the new benefits, it even includes a refrigeration system.
In August of 2015, John Deere released the exciting news for a new tractor. John Deere has been missing a piece of their puzzle with not having a quad track but the 9RX is here to fill in that missing gap.
An article in Successful Farming by Jessie Scott, explains the heart of the 9RX, the smooth ride, and the available options.
“When we designed the undercarriage, we wanted good reliability and ease of maintenance,” explains Jerry Griffith of John Deere. “Around reliability, one of the first things you notice is the taller undercarriage and larger components used compared with competitors'. One of the main benefits of a larger undercarriage is that the belt is 20% longer, which should provide 20% longer life.”
These benefits alone can improve a balance sheet for a farmer. Most farmers buy new equipment every few years causing debt to increase. Having the time to actually pay off this tractor will only increase income for the farmer in the long run.
Jessie Scott also talks about the ease of maintenance. The new 9RX is lubed-for-life, mid-roller design allows you to go up to 1,500 hours before checking the oil level and never requires an oil change.
With this kind of technology, a farmer will be able to go longer in the field. This can maximize yields by having the seed get into the field as soon as possible.
