John Deere Introduces New P-Tier Articulated Dump Trucks

  • John Deere introduces its first articulated dump truck models within its Performance Tiering portfolio.
  • The updated cab layout on the P-Tier ADTs helps maximize operator comfort and ease of operation.
  • These redesigned ADT models offer a more modern style including various visual and stylistic updates.
  • Customers can choose from different trim levels and application packages.

MOLINE, Ill. — John Deere expands its Performance Tiering Strategy to its line-up of articulated dump trucks. New to the P-Tier portfolio, the 410 and 460 ADTs retain the same fuel efficiency, dump body, and drive modes as the previous E-II models. For all P-Tier models, additional updates to the external styling and interior cab layout modernize the fleet while maintaining the productivity these trucks have become known for. These machines also feature a range of standard onboard settings to help ease operation and increase efficiency during any application.

"The P-Tier models were built with the operator in mind to support ease of use and operator comfort," states Justin Steger, solutions marketing manager, John Deere Construction & Forestry. "Redesigning the layout of the components in the cab and grouping features together and packaging them in a meaningful way based on the application are a couple of examples of how we're incorporating customer feedback and delivering further improvements."

Helping to provide more customization, customers can choose from two different trim levels, as well as add a variety of optional packages including packages for enhanced operator comfort, cold weather conditions, debris management and maintenance and service capabilities. The first trim package option offers familiar features such as a black exhaust stack, manually adjusted rear view mirrors and temperature controls, a standard seat and radio, a 15-amp converter and halogen vehicle lights. Providing elevated creature comforts and controls, the second trim package offers a chrome exhaust stack, power adjusted rear view mirrors, a premium seat and radio, a 25-amp converter, automatic temperature control in the operator's station and LED vehicle lights.
