Tenneco, Case's parent company bought them as some of their stock came with the IH ag division purchase, and Steiger was dependent on IH at the time for cash reasons.
Had to drive one in the early 90’s. You didn’t realize how bad of a tractor it was,until you got on a John Deere. The case was much louder and had a horrible turbo whine that would drive you crazy after awhile. It also took almost twice the room to turn around. I’m comparing these to the 8760 Deere we had. I can’t even remember the case model number.
They complained and made stupid accusations about everyone,instead of worrying about what they were doing. That’s why they went under,just like all the rest of them exceptJohn Deere. Deere had the best stuff and system going,thus survived.
The acquisition of Steiger saved Case’s 4wd market. That 9110 with the Koyker loader is pretty badass.
Agreed but I think case could of still killed it with the ridgid frame crab steer models
Fantastic video, the artics from Fargo were so far ahead of their time!
The Steiger Puma was a great tractor, we planted, cultivated with it’s well as running the grain cart
The 9170 was a great tillage tractor
That case ih planter was a nice planter
Funny that in the 80s case said the rigid frame was the best compared to the articulated models but yet ended up buying steiger anyway

I’m a Deere guy but pretty cool with a Cat 3306 engine
Miss the green color of Steiger
Times pas on& you gotta go with them. Yes 1200 &1470 were tops

Do farmers in North America use front loaders? In Nordic countries front loaders are very common

I would rather keep our Steiger than have one of those stupid four wheel steer models
What?

Deere has its own problems as well caseIH use to be cheaper now they are the same as a Deere
