Elevating Productivity: From 16-Foot Reach to SmartGrade™ Precision
How does the 326P Telescoping Loader solve feedlot and dairy challenges?
If you've ever felt like your current loader was just a few inches short of the perfect stack, the new 326P is about to become your new best friend. At 21st Century Equipment, we’ve seen firsthand how this machine changes the game for our dairy and feed yard partners across the high plains.
Our technicians highlight these "heavy-lifting" specs as the key to your efficiency:
- Massive Reach: A 16-foot telescoping boom allows you to stack higher and reach across trailers with ease.
- Serious Capacity: Rated for 5,000 pounds, it handles heavy silage and hay without breaking a sweat.
- Compact Agility: It offers the reach of a telehandler with the tight-turning maneuverability of a compact loader.
Why is M-Modem connectivity the "silent partner" your fleet needs?
Managing a fleet shouldn't require a crystal ball. We’ve integrated M-Modem technology into our equipment to give you a "bird's-eye view" of your operation from anywhere in Nebraska, Colorado, or Wyoming.
By using our "The Backyard" expertise to set up your M-Modem alerts, you can gain:
- Theft Prevention: Set up geofences that alert you the second a machine moves when it shouldn't.
- Fleet Tracking: Know exactly where every hour is being spent across your sections.
- Custom Alerts: Receive maintenance reminders directly to your phone so a $50 filter doesn't turn into a $5,000 repair.
Precision Grading with the 335 P-Tier CTL
For those of you moving dirt, the 335 P-Tier Compact Track Loader (CTL) brings "big iron" precision to a smaller frame. Equipped with SmartGrade™ technology and slope control, this machine allows you to hit your grade the first time, every time. Our veteran specialists have found that this doesn't just save time—it saves on fuel and wear-and-tear by eliminating unnecessary passes.
How does our Connected Support team stop downtime before it starts?
We don't just sell you a machine and wave goodbye from the driveway. Our Connected Support team is made up of veteran technicians who use real-time machine monitoring to keep an eye on your equipment's "vital signs."
Our factory-certified experts catch small issues—like a flickering sensor or a cooling system irregularity—before they turn into a mid-afternoon breakdown. This proactive approach is a core part of our mission to earn "customers for life" through integrity and dedicated service.

Common Questions About New John Deere Compact Tech (FAQ)
What makes the 326P different from a standard wheel loader? While a standard loader has a fixed pivot, the 326P features a telescoping arm. This gives you the extra height needed to reach over high-sided mixers or stack bales in the top rafters of a barn without needing a larger, bulkier machine.
Do I need a special subscription for M-Modem features? Many of the core fleet tracking and remote diagnostic features are available through the John Deere Operations Center™. Our precision ag team can help you choose the right data plan to ensure your theft prevention and custom alerts are always active.
Is SmartGrade™ on a CTL as accurate as a motor grader? For the jobs it’s designed for—like building pads, drainage slopes, or landscaping—it’s incredibly precise. It uses integrated sensors to automatically hold the blade at the correct grade, which is a lifesaver for operators of all experience levels.
How does Connected Support know my machine has an issue? If your machine throws a "trouble code," it's sent via cellular signal to our shop. Our technicians can often "dial in" to your display remotely to see exactly what’s happening, saving you a service call fee for simple software fixes.
