Chaparral vs John Deere: A Build-Off Challenge

As much as I enjoy the challenge of building these vintage sleds, it seems like there always comes a point at which you’re ready for them to be finished but there is still some work to be done.

Fortunately, the day that they are finished does come and that’s where we’re at with this year’s project sleds: The John Deere Cyclone and the Chaparral SSX. They are ready to go.

Now comes the fun part. The assignment for you out there is to decide which sled you like better. Disregarding the factors that went into the builds (cost, time, effort, etc.), just look at them from the perspective that if you could take one home, which one would it be. Really looking forward to your opinions.
