Every final weekend in February, the city of Bartow, Florida is overrun with Jeep enthusiasts from across the country. Coming together for the three-day family-friendly festival and charity event, 2,300 Jeeps come crawling in for Jeepin’ With Judd. The event offers obstacle courses and trail rides at Clear Springs Ranch, with all the proceeds going to the Polk Sherrif Charities.
To put on such a monstrous event, though, it takes a lot of behind-the-scenes work. From August to February, the Orlando Jeep Club and Polk County Sherrif’s office discuss logistics, new tactics and features of the event, and how this year’s will be even better than the last! And in the new year, the team gets to the real work – moving dirt!
Over a two-month period leading up to the event, Doug Tanner and his team of operators use heavy equipment to refinish the trails and bolster their obstacle courses. The SANY SY265C excavator is the critical piece of machinery needed to construct the obstacles that make Jeepin’ With Judd one of the most exciting off-road events in Florida.
But why choose SANY over other heavy equipment brands like Komatsu, Caterpillar or John Deere to build such a course? Doug Tanner explains that the SANY is his top choice for operating ease, machine power, and fuel consumption that lets him hit the course hard all day long. At Jeepin’ With Judd, the SANY excavator’s role is two-part. First, the team relies on it to reset the obstacle courses. But it also plays a pivotal role in the event – because when a Jeep gets stuck or breaks down on the track, it’s up to the SY265C to save the day.

Thus, not only is the SANY SY265 excavator essential to making Jeepin' With Judd possible, but it also adds to the excitement of the event. Spectators can watch in awe as this powerful machine rescues stuck Jeeps.
So next year if you're planning on attending Jeepin' With Judd, keep an eye out for the SANY SY265 excavator in action. And if you're a Jeep owner, rest assured that this machine is there to ensure your safety while still providing an unforgettable experience!
