Ballweg Implement, located in Waupun, Wisconsin, recently hosted their 4th Annual Gator Wars Competition at the dealership. The mechanical diagnostic competition, Gator Wars, started in North Carolina 10 years ago when a small group of students were challenged to diagnose and repair a John Deere Gator that was “bugged.” The competition allows students to build their mechanical skills by performing a variety of hands-on activities.
