Second
Generation
Liquifire
The liquid-cooled flagship of the last generation of Deere
snowmobiles. There were minor decal changes every year, and one
major track change, otherwise they were very similar over the 4-year
run. While there were many 1980 models produced, there were very
few each year after.
