In addition to the military-inspired aesthetic, the John Deere Honor Edition UTV features a host of upgrades that come standard. But John Deere also offers some optional upgrades to customize your ride.

The standard features include:

  • Military-inspired model numbers, brand, and graphics
  • Black alloy wheels with Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 Extreme Terrain radial tires
  • Black vinyl 40/60 split-bench seat
  • Sport steering wheel
  • Half-doors (open station models)

The John Deere Gator Honor Edition UTV will be available for a limited time. You can preorder it now by getting in contact with your local John Deere dealership.

John Deere SAVE Farm Program: The Big Deal

In conjunction with the release of the special edition Gator UTV, John Deere has also announced their support for the SAVE Farm. This program provides farming, ranching, and agribusiness training and healing programs for service members, veterans, and their families.

John Deere has a long history of supporting the military and our veterans who have sacrificed so much to protect this country. We are proud to honor these brave individuals through our new special edition Gator Utility Vehicle while supporting organizations like The Save Farm.

In addition, John Deere has partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense SkillBridge program to offer the Career Skills Program. This program allows service members an opportunity to put their leadership and technical skills to work at John Deere. The SkillBridge program helps servicemen begin their post-military careers by interning at a John Deere production facility or at a dealership during the last 5 months of their military commitment.
