In Ohio I belive it is.
Anyone know off a though old dealer from them with a lot off
pull in CAT that you could recommend me too.
Or at any other similar character at some CAT dealership.
Someone thats been in the game for approx 800years
and that makes everyone in Peoria jump when he enters a room...

This will resoult in a hefty finders fee if arranged.
In exess of at least 17:drinkup

Cat is to kitten as dog is to???
Jesus!!!

There is a company by the name of HOLT that sells CATERPILLAR
equipment. If your answer is yes, then read on...

I need to know if someone on this forum knows any salesman there.
That has a highly appreciated relationship with CATERPILLAR INC. headquartered in Peoria. Thus the statement "a lot of pull".

I understand that most readers are operators and young of age but...

Here are the current Holt dealerships in the United States. I seem to remember that there was a Holt Tractor in Ohio some years ago, but there is no listing for it now. I used to do some business with Holt in Los Banos, California some years ago. Good Luck!

Yes, there was a Holt Cat in Ohio. Im pretty sure about three years ago they changed the name to Ohio Cat. I have been past it several times with the Holt name and now the Ohio cat name.

I'm not sure if I've got my info correct, so if anyone knows different, please correct me.

I have been told that the Holt family (the same family that owned what is now called Ohio CAT) are the descendents of the man who founded Caterpilar. I do know that Holt Cat is huge. I also know that when they wanted to expand into some surrounding regions around Ohio, and the owners of the Cat franchises in those regions did not want to sell.. Holt began buying and operation John Deere Heavy Equipment Dealerships.

Caterpillar Problem

Hello Eknab,

Something is lost in your ?

Do you have a problem with some Caterpillar equipment ? Service, Warranty, Sales ? :beatsme

Are you looking for someone, from an old Caterpillar dealership, knowledgeable and experienced, to help solve your problem with the factory in Peoria ?:beatsme

Surfer: Thx

Adobb: You are correct, here you can read up on your CAT-history
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caterpillar,_Inc.

Northart: The problem if I may call it that is the lack of CE-labels on used machinery sold in the states.
Due to the current weak level of the USD it would be
financially "interresting" to ship some iron over here to the old continent.
And beeing the poor son of a ****** I am, I might finally get my hands on
a 385C :cool2 .

I know for a fact that the german CAT dealership has done this.
And now I would like too as well, because the fact is you aint a
real rocktroll before youve driven a 385. All else is made for
weighing caught fish and digging after worms :drinkup

Equipment Desires?

Hello EKnab,

So, what is your station in life?

Are you a Contractor, Operator, or just student.

As, for any of the above, if you, just want to, Operate one, to fufull a wish, you should contact Caterpillar, and ask to go, to one of their Proving Grounds for a demonstration.

As for purchase of used equipment, Caterpillar has Inspection Programs that go into great detail for prospective purchasers. You know exactly the rate of wear and the % of life left in major components.

Iron Planet Internet Auction has the service also.

Yes the Euro is particularly strong right now and the USA welcomes foreign purchase.

Used Cat Equipment

Hello Eknab ;

Here's some websites for further investigation that may help you.


www.Fabco.com in Marquette, Mich.

located in Upper Michigan, where there are Finnish :) speaking people. Maybe they have such a salesperson.

www.Zieglercat.com
in Minneapolis, Minn. There are also Finnish:) speaking people in Minn. Maybe they have such a salesperson also.

Another website is www.Catused.com of used Caterpillar Machinery, a dealer network

Hope this helps. :usa
