    Comments:

     
    The Versatile 1080 "Big Roy" was a prototype. The 26-ton tractor featured a four-axle 8x8 drive, and a 19-liter Cummins KTA 1150-600 diesel generating 600 horsepower. A camera system with in-cab monitors was used for the operator. The tractor is now at the Manitoba Agricultural Museum.
