Does anyone know more about the Caterpillar pulling truck?? Here is a link to the website. There looks like there is a lot of money in the trailer, tow vehicle, body, and etc.

It is NOT going to be a cummins from what Atley said. He says its going to be a woodruff diesel engine less than than 466 cubes or so.

What a crock...Ford truck, Cummins engine, Kubota RTV1100, all with CAT plastered all over them. Seems like a total waste of a sponsor's dollars to me. I guess if they can get Ohio Cat to sponsor, more power to them...

You should be able to get ahold of him through woodruff diesel.


I am sure that there will be a CAT block in this machine

So if it was a Cat brand pickup (which they don't make) running a Cat engine (that isn't allowed by the rules) pulled buy a Cat skid steer (which would be cool) would it still be waste of money? You need to remember what they're doing with this. They're advertising the Caterpillar line of farm equipment at public events attended by mostly people in the farming community. And to attract current and future diesel tech's. What better place to do that than at events with diesel fanatics. Doesn't seem like a waste to me and believe me they could have wrote a check for the entire operation (both trucks,trailer, kubota, engine ect...) and that wouldn't be a fraction of what even a dealer like Ohio Cat would spend on advertising elsewhere.

I have to agree what a better place to advertise for a buisness and try to attract new customers. I hope that it runs as good as the setup looks.

Looks like one hell of a nice setup. Josh showed it to me when they did my tranny kit. Way too much stew for my blue collar wallet!!!
