A COUGAR DOES MORE WORK. The Cougar's large displacement and high torque rise Caterpillar and Cummins engines have consistently given Steiger the extra reserve of pulling power In fact, these 280 horsepower Steigers ac tually outperform higher horsepower tractors by delivering more of their engine horsepower to the drawbar This high per centage of engine to drawbar horsepower means that with a STEIGER Cougar you get more of the power you’re paying for Steiger selects engines, transmissions, and other components from a wide range of sources. So while other manufacturers are generally forced to sell only what they build, Steiger can pick from the newest and most efficient technology on the matket The components are then carefully engineered into a machine that can consistently outperform and outlast the competition A COUGAR keeps its upkeep to a minimum IF YOU COMPARE A COUGAR IV TO THE OTHERS, SOONER OR LATER, YOU'LL OWN A STEIGER VEAL CALVES.
