John Deere 8010 series (1999–2002) – the big tractors from Waterloo on wheels and tracks: 8110 to 8410, the number as power step, T for the tracked version, PowerTech six-cylinder of 8.1 litres, 144 to 199 kW
The 8010 series was the second generation of the big tractors with which John Deere had redefined the class between 160 and 300 hp in 1994: the 8000s of 1994 brought the six-cylinder up front, the cab moved far forward and the 16-speed powershift; the 8010s of 1999 carried that layout on with the new PowerTech engine and revised electronics, built in Waterloo, Iowa. The type logic: 8 marks the series, the middle digit the power step – 8110 about 165 hp, 8210 190 hp, 8310 220 hp, 8410 250 hp – 10 the generation, T the tracked version with rubber-belt undercarriage (8110T to 8410T), with which Deere had challenged Caterpillar's Challenger since 1997. The engine in all models is the PowerTech six-cylinder of 8.1 litres at 2,200 rpm; the register span up to 199 kW shows the maximum power of the top models.

The register lists 8 versions with 143.5 to 198.7 kW from the six-cylinder of 8,134 cm³, torque from 794 to 988 Nm, unladen weights from 8,775 to 11,965 kg, a length of 5,487 mm, widths from 3,012 to 3,404 mm and heights from 3,075 to 3,135 mm.
The 8010s are the tractors of the big arable farms of the Midwest, Eastern Europe and Australia; their tracked versions founded the tracked-tractor line Deere still runs today as 8RT and 9RT. In 2002 the 8020 series followed.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
