Is Navistar still building the Cat trucks this year? I had heard somewhere that Cat was going to split from Navistar on this deal.
Nice truck, I want one too.

So far they only put a scratch on the back of the mirror when he pulled out of the pit. Just replayed our Mack from them hauling concrete. But thanks for the offer.

Yes Mike it's priced about the same as a kW. We have a good relationship with the local cat house so that's why we went with the cat insted of a kW.

International/Cat is using Cummins SCR components on their new engines.

Cat rep told me to watch for an announcement in 2016 about their return to on-road engines. They already have prototype off road equipment running SCR/Urea engines.

International is supposed to be re-introducing a new Paystar 5600 model that they told me will have many of the changes Cat made to their version of it.

nowing75, all i can say is that 38 Square Excavating is very jealous of this purchase. Been wanting on of these trucks for a couple of years now. i hope it all work good for you. maybe in a few years we can turn the old pete dump truck into a road tractor again and buy a real dump truck!
