Use Cat when referring to our machines, parts, etc. Caterpillar itself is the enterprise, not a machine.

And why yes, I am the Caterpillar Brand Polizei.

Order your holiday gifts now.
You need to talk to an oldtimer at Caterpillar tractor company, now Caterpillar, inc. It was a CATERPILLAR No.12 Motor Grader. That's what it said on the side of it and what was written on the parts book. This CAT thing is what the kiddies that run the place call it now. That naming convention has only been around for twenty years or so. For that matter, when I was a kid there were still a lot of machines around that said Holt on them. Come around and tell me all about it when YOU can build a level road with an RD8 with a cable blade. In fact, I'm betting you couldn't get it started. I'll bet you couldn't get the pony motor started.

By the way, what the hell happened to the steel differential housing? Did it turn to vapor or just chips?

I am anxious to see if it happens. I am not buying one, but it will be fun to see people finally able to run a heavily modded V without risking the rear.

It's like getting a X-mas gift, but instead of a chunk of coal it's a block of steel.

And it was fun to play in. I only had one toy, a sand box, and I had to share it with the cat.
