Deere dealers to offer certified used machines that meet stringent quality inspections and requirements

John Deere introduces a new Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Equipment program to assist customers looking for field-ready used machines with the latest technology to increase overall productivity for their farm or business operation.

"Some customers have not upgraded their machinery fleet in a few years and the Certified Pre-Owned Equipment program will allow them to trade up to later model machines with new technology," says Bill Weber, division manager, remarketing, John Deere. "Typically, these machines have better fuel economy, comfort, convenience, and the latest technology to provide exceptional value to customers wanting to enhance and improve their overall equipment line-up."

Every Certified Pre-Owned tractor or combine is covered by a comprehensive PowerGard Protection Plan that provides extra value and cost-of-ownership effectiveness. All main components are covered including engine, transmission, final drives, hubs, steering components, electronics, hydraulics, cab, and air conditioning. There are some deductibles and John Deere dealers will have more detailed information about the PowerGard coverages.

"No one else offers a low-hour used machine that's been field tested, inspected and certified on over 170 points for tractors and 200 points on combines," says Weber. "Plus, customers will have the peace of mind to know that these machines are covered with one year of PowerGard protection."

All Certified Pre-Owned machines will also receive a free one-year subscription to JDLink which monitors machinery location and performance, tracks fuel usage, and manages and protects equipment from a laptop, desktop, or mobile device.

"This is the ideal time for customers to consider purchasing a used, late model, combine, or tractor" emphasizes Weber. "There has never been a better selection of equipment, backed by an industry-leading protection plan, and fully outfitted with the latest technology to add comfort, convenience, and efficiency."
