  • Took a little road trip up to Stowers Machinery in Crossville, TN. Went there to check out the new CAT CTL 255 and 265. Wow, they were impressive to say the least. Also had a chance to meet Stowers Machinery President and CEO Lisa Rottmann and the Senior VP of Sales Andy Jobes. Great folks who are determined to make customer relationships a #1 priority…

    You can trust an unknown future to a known God. Eastern Tennessee viewers appreciate your "shout out" to Stowers Machinery, a Cat dealer whose equipment you operate and sales and service you trust. ...Until next time, may the Lord bless you, Sam and keep you safe. Mike&Pat

    Ah, new toys..... 😎
    Everyone has their preferences, but dealer network and parts availability has to be a must for all operators.... get a good dealer, and you can't go far wrong !!!
    Those 745 are a decent size !!! They have a factory that builds these about an hour or so south of me. 😁
    Never had the opportunity to go to an open day like this, but then I'm not an operator or business owner 🤷‍♂️😂

    • @tristardiggin

    In France there are many Cat 323, it is a versatile model.
