John Deere primary, plus STIHL, Kuhn, Great Plains, CAM Superline Trailers, Toro, SnowEx and Boss Snow Plow. What each brand is known for and where it fits.
John Deere is the primary line across our stores, covering agriculture, turf, utility vehicles and compact construction equipment. We also carry STIHL, along with Kuhn, Great Plains, CAM Superline Trailers, Toro, SnowEx and Boss Snow Plow. Product lines carried can vary by location, so call the store nearest you to confirm what is available there before making the drive, particularly for handheld equipment, trailers and snow and ice control equipment.
John Deere is the primary line across our stores and the reason most of our customers walk in. The company traces back to 1837 and the steel plow that made farming the heavy prairie soils practical, and it has grown into one of the largest agricultural and turf equipment manufacturers in the world.
In this region, the John Deere line covers essentially the whole operation. Row crop and 4WD tractors, combines and heads, planters and drills, sprayers, tillage tools, hay and forage equipment, compact utility tractors, Gators, ZTrak and QuikTrak commercial mowers, lawn and garden tractors, and compact construction machines including skid steers, compact track loaders, compact wheel loaders and compact excavators.
The other half of the value now is technology. John Deere Operations Center, guidance and RTK correction, section and rate control, yield and moisture sensing, machine connectivity, Expert Alerts and remote support are a genuine part of what the equipment does. For a farm running multiple machines across multiple fields, having that data in one system, tied to a dealer who can see and support it, is a large practical advantage. Parts availability and dealer network depth are the other reason people stay with the line. A machine you cannot get parts for in October is not a bargain.
STIHL is a German manufacturer founded in 1926, and it built its reputation on chainsaws. Andreas Stihl developed early electric and gasoline chainsaws and the company has been at the front of that category ever since. STIHL products in the United States are sold through servicing dealers rather than big box retail, which is a deliberate choice on their part and one of the reasons the brand holds its reputation.
The line covers chainsaws from homeowner to professional felling saws, string trimmers and brushcutters, hedge trimmers, blowers, pole saws, cut-off saws, augers, pressure washers, sprayers and a growing battery-powered lineup running on shared battery systems.
For an Indiana or Ohio customer, STIHL covers everything the tractor cannot. Cutting firewood, clearing fence lines, trimming around buildings and equipment, storm cleanup, brush along ditches and waterways, and general property maintenance. Farms and rural properties tend to accumulate STIHL products over time, and the battery lineup has changed the calculation for anyone doing quick jobs around a shop or a yard where starting a gas engine is more trouble than the task.
Kuhn is a hay, forage and livestock equipment specialist with roots in Alsace, France going back to 1828, and a long presence in North America. It is one of the larger implement manufacturers in the world and it is best known for doing hay and feeding equipment thoroughly.
The line includes disc mowers and mower conditioners, tedders, rotary rakes, round and square balers, bale wrappers, vertical and horizontal mixer feed wagons, manure spreaders, and a range of tillage and seeding tools.
In this part of the Midwest, Kuhn shows up most on livestock and hay operations. Dairy and beef producers use Kuhn mixers for consistent total mixed rations, which has a direct effect on feed efficiency. Hay producers use the mowing, tedding and raking equipment where quality and drying time drive the value of the crop. Their mixers and spreaders in particular have a reputation for holding up under daily use, which is the standard that matters on a livestock operation where the machine runs every day of the year.
Great Plains Manufacturing was founded in Salina, Kansas in 1976 and became part of Kubota Corporation in 2016. The brand built itself on seeding and tillage equipment designed around real agronomic conditions rather than showroom appeal.
Great Plains is best known for grain drills and no-till drills, which have a strong following among no-till and cover crop growers, along with planters, vertical tillage tools, turbo tillage, disc harrows and soil finishers.
For Indiana and Ohio ground, the vertical tillage and no-till drill lines are the most relevant. This region has heavy soils, real residue loads after high yielding corn, and growing cover crop adoption driven by both agronomics and conservation programs. A drill that can place seed accurately into residue and a vertical tillage tool that sizes residue and manages moisture without creating a compaction layer are both directly useful here. Growers who are serious about cover crops tend to have strong opinions about drills, and Great Plains is usually in that conversation.
CAM Superline is a trailer manufacturer based in Pennsylvania, building steel trailers for construction, agricultural and commercial use. The line covers equipment trailers, tilt trailers, deckover trailers, dump trailers, car haulers, utility trailers and low profile equipment haulers.
The brand is known for heavier construction than typical light duty trailers, with attention to frame design, decking, ramps and axle capacity. That matters because trailers are the piece of equipment people most often buy one size too light, then live with for a decade.
For a farm or contractor in Indiana and Ohio, a trailer is not an accessory. It is how a skid steer gets to the job, how a compact tractor goes out for service, how bales and materials move between properties, and how a dump trailer takes care of gravel, mulch, dirt and cleanup work. Matching trailer rating to the heaviest thing you will actually haul, including attachments and fuel, is worth doing carefully. Talk to a salesperson with your real numbers rather than guessing at weights.
The Toro Company was founded in Minnesota in 1914, initially building engines for tractor manufacturers, and moved into turf equipment shortly after. It is one of the best known names in professional turf, and its equipment is a common sight on golf courses, sports fields and municipal grounds.
The line includes commercial and residential mowers, zero-turns, walk-behind mowers, golf course and sports turf equipment, irrigation systems, compact utility loaders, and snow blowers.
In this region, Toro shows up on golf courses, school and park districts, sports complexes, cemeteries and commercial landscape operations, along with homeowners who want a serious snow blower. Their irrigation business is also substantial, covering both turf and agricultural applications. For any grounds operation that is judged on how the turf looks, the equipment quality and the availability of parts and service through a local dealer are both part of the decision.
SnowEx builds snow and ice control equipment and is part of Douglas Dynamics, the same group that owns Western and Fisher. The brand made its name on spreaders and later expanded into plows and liquid de-icing systems.
The line includes tailgate and hopper spreaders, poly and stainless configurations, straight and V-plows, plows sized for utility vehicles and compact equipment, and brine sprayers for anti-icing.
Northern Indiana and Ohio winters make snow and ice control a real business, not a sideline. Commercial properties, parking lots, schools and municipalities expect lots cleared and treated before the workday starts, and liability makes ice control as important as plowing. SnowEx spreaders and liquid systems fit operations that manage both. Their utility vehicle and compact equipment mounted plows also suit sidewalk crews and tight commercial properties where a full size truck is the wrong tool.
BOSS Snowplow was founded in Iron Mountain, Michigan in 1985, in a place where snow removal is not theoretical. The brand is known for its V-plows and for hydraulics and attachment systems designed to make hooking up in cold weather fast and reliable.
The line includes straight blades, V-plows, expandable wing plows, box plows, UTV and ATV plows, plows for skid steers and compact equipment, and spreaders.
For contractors across Indiana and Ohio, plow choice usually comes down to what kind of property they clear. A V-plow shines in deep snow and for opening drifted lots and driveways, since it can scoop, vee and run straight. An expandable wing plow moves more snow per pass on large open lots. A box plow is efficient for big flat areas. Contractors who run several trucks tend to standardize so parts, hydraulics and mounts are interchangeable, which cuts downtime during a storm when a broken plow means a route does not get done.

Yes, and we run a large STIHL catalog. STIHL is a German manufacturer founded in 1926 that built its name on chainsaws and now covers trimmers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, blowers, pole saws, cut-off saws, augers, pressure washers and a substantial battery-powered lineup. STIHL sells through servicing dealers rather than big box retail. For farms and rural properties it covers the work a tractor cannot, from firewood and fence lines to storm cleanup and trimming.
Kuhn specializes in hay, forage and livestock equipment. The line includes disc mowers and mower conditioners, tedders, rotary rakes, balers, bale wrappers, mixer feed wagons, manure spreaders and a range of tillage and seeding tools. On Indiana and Ohio operations it shows up most on hay and livestock farms. Dairy and beef producers use the mixers for consistent rations, and hay producers use the mowing, tedding and raking equipment where drying time and quality drive crop value.
Great Plains, founded in Salina, Kansas in 1976, built its reputation on seeding and tillage equipment designed around real field conditions. Their grain drills and no-till drills are known for placing seed accurately into heavy residue, which is exactly the challenge in this region after high yielding corn. With cover crop adoption growing across Indiana and Ohio, a drill that performs in residue matters. Their vertical tillage tools also address residue sizing and moisture without creating a compaction layer.
A straight blade is simpler and less expensive and works well on open areas and straightforward pushes. A V-plow can scoop to carry snow, form a vee to break through deep or drifted snow, and run straight, which makes it more versatile on driveways and lots that drift. Expandable wing plows and box plows move more snow per pass on large open lots. BOSS, founded in Iron Mountain, Michigan in 1985, is particularly known for its V-plows and its attachment hydraulics.
Yes. We carry SnowEx, which builds tailgate and hopper spreaders in poly and stainless configurations, straight and V-plows, plows sized for utility vehicles and compact equipment, and brine sprayers for anti-icing. We also carry Boss Snow Plow. In northern Indiana and Ohio, ice control matters as much as plowing because of liability on commercial properties, so operations that need both spreading and liquid application should ask about the full setup.
CAM Superline is a Pennsylvania steel trailer manufacturer building equipment trailers, tilt trailers, deckover trailers, dump trailers, car haulers, utility trailers and low profile equipment haulers, generally with heavier construction than light duty trailers. When you shop, match the trailer rating to the heaviest load you will actually haul including attachments and fuel, not to what you usually haul. Trailers are the piece of equipment people most often buy one size too light.
Toro, founded in Minnesota in 1914, is best known for professional turf equipment.
