  2. The walking tractor was developed by a Finnish company called Plustech, plustech is a subsidiary of another finnish company called Timberjack.
    The walking tree harvester had been in development for a long time before John Deere came along and bought Timberjack.
    John Deere killed the project.

    Despite the fact that the tech seems adaptable for a lot of other purposes. I wonder if in some nevada secret works there's one of these being put through its places in desert sand paint?

    Soubriquet, Boooo to John Deere, the spoilsports. I hope there's still a few of them running through the wild, free.
