The Track is an excellent weekly video series from RDO Equipment Co., a John Deere and Vermeer dealer operating 75 stores in nine states. The series is hosted by used equipment expert Dennis Howard, who welcomes guests and discusses the latest trends and technologies changing the used construction machinery industry — equipment values, frequently asked question, helpful buying tips and awesome management insights.

Recently, Howard got out in the field with Adrian Cortez, a compact construction equipment sales professional, about trending compact excavators (this was filmed pre COVID-19). The two do a walk-around of the new Deere 35G mini excavator. Watch above. Then feel free to jump into these five recent mini ex features below.
