thunderdog Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I am a diehard Mack man but when they give ya a truck to run for a year, ya just can't say no!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 We have a scrapyard around here that is tied in with the Caterpillar plants. They have a couple of the new Cat branded trucks. I think they sound a lot like a 6-71 GMC under acceleration, but seem to move faster.

thunderdog Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 The truck has been on the road for a few months now and no major problems. It does have a C13 in it at 475hp - 18 spd. No, I dont drive it as i gave it to a driver-I will keep my Mack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 HO Penn Caterpillar, where my gran son works part time has one to haul their low boy for pick up and delieveries. Looks o.k. sounds o.k. but watching the driver go up the road with an automatic just ain't natural, probably a good tranny but I don't like automatic anything.

REEL ADDICTION Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 They just sent me a quote for a triaxle cat dump in an automatic with all the bells and whistles $210k That is too much there are only two kind of people that r going to buy a Cat truck is 1 the guy who wants to be the first one with a new cat truck and the other is a guy who has all cat equipment thats just my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreema5 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I've been told the motor is the result of a joint venture between CAT, Navistar, and MANN (not sure if that's a misprint of the German MAN truck co.) At any rate, there's very little about the truck that is true pure-bred CAT. Navistar alone would stear me clear of it if I was in the market for a new vocational truck. Not that it matters; there's nothing a CAT diesel does that a Mack or Cummins can't do for less money.That's why I love the bulldogs. The streets would be awful boring if it was only Freightliners and PACCARs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theakerstwo Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 The cat dealer he has one with a dump bed on it. I told the guys i work with it was a IHC cab so they go test drive it and the salsman says no it ant a IHC cab. Quote glenn akers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 The visor and doors look like IH. That's quite a coincidence since Navistar is in on it. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer52 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 13L engine is a MaxxForce13 (based on MANN engine). The 15L engine (MaxxForce15) is joint CAT/IH designed/developed (block is CAT C15) Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
