John Deere Product Details
260 P-Tier
Improve Operator Awareness with Advanced Vision System
Optional Advanced Vision System adds additional cameras to enhance operator situational awareness. The additional cameras provide a larger field of view for jobsite surroundings and articulation sensors provide dynamic panning capabilities.
Standard Onboard Features to Help Ease Operation
When enabled through the monitor, standard onboard features help optimize operator focus and productivity. Features include rollover protection, downhill dump protection, hill hold, shuttle shifting, and more.
A Quieter, Pressurized Cab with Adaptive Suspension
The truck is equipped with a sealed, pressurized cab that helps minimize fatigue and helps operators stay comfortable and alert. Standard adaptive suspension system adjusts to the jobsite, stabilizing the ride and the cab.
