AND FOR THAT WE SAY THANKS.

TRUCKING IS LIFE VIDEO


 

Through the decades, trucking has been a link in the chain holding modern life together.

Without it, and without drivers like you, the world comes to a standstill. That's why Caterpillar wants to say thanks to you and every truck driver who ever worked hard and sacrificed to make sure modern life kept chugging along.

Fuel efficiency was the name of the game. Our 3406 and 3408 engines hit seven miles per gallon at a time when most truckers were getting five or fewer.

High horsepower ruled. And along with a focus on continuing to improve fuel economy came a new technological challenge, reducing emissions.

Our precious metals rebuild kits hit the market for the first time, as did many of our C Series engines, including one known as the "King of the Hill" — the 625hp C15.
