If John Deere did make a pickup, price would start at $250, 000.

Caterpillar pickup with an inline diesel 6 would be sweet!!!

My only experience with CAT was riding in the Oshkosh Defense MRAP All Terrain Vehicle. Had a 7.2L Caterpillar mated to an Allison Transmission! Very solid, no complaints on the performance, did everything I needed it to do!

As someone who works at Cat, I can tell you we aren't building a truck. After the failure of the CT660 we have no desire to make one.

That's why I watch you guys...you are the authority in my world. Cheers!

[WoodenViking]

imagine a CAT purpose built working truck starts at 25k, just minimal bell and whistles, built in the US of A, one can only hope

[C-Henry]

My first clue that it was fake was that neither you, or Doug DeMuro, or Driving Sports TV, or MotorWeek, or any other real car channel was reporting on it.

[krashnpa]

Wait, what?! It's fake??? I just put a deposit down on one! Well, shoot, I should have known when it was spelled Caterpellar 😂😂

Where I live you can drive your side by side on the road. The only place they aren't allowed is major highways or interstates.
It is very common to go to the store and see 2-5 parked in the parking lot.

That's why I only get my truck news from you guys, THANKS TFLT!!!

[LDDivision]

It may all be fake, but I think it would be smart for manufacturers to make special editions of their trucks like this. They could charge a fortune, and they'd be cool as heck to see on the street.

Just put removable seats in the bed, no chicken tax.

[brianrydzeski]

I've been marking everyone of these as "Do Not Recommend Channel". I get my real truck new from TFL Truck. Thank's Guys.

[tarfeef]

Honestly if i worked PR at any of those companies I'd be so annoyed with inquiries about obviously fake stuff

[matthewmoore]

A Caterpillar Pickup truck would be sweet though. Those renders look awesome. :)

[edwardnelson]

Good for TFLTruck for Exposing fake news. You guys are the best. Blessings

I remember years ago about a rumor that Cat was going to build engines for the Silverado. Would've been cool.

[DAMOOSESQUADDJs]

I live in Austin TX when they decide to build a new cat factory in lampass TX this actually got them to put lampass on the road signs I can say it would be awesome but I saw y'all's thumb nail and thanks for this maybe them building the cat engine for a truck but not the whole thing

[KISSFanDan]

That’d be cool if Ford or Chevy teamed up with Cat and did a Cat edition truck with a yellow/black interior, Cat labeling on the headrests and dashboard, heavier duty suspension components and maybe a Cat engine. If that hasn’t been done yet.

CAT HQ is now Las Colinas/Irving, TX.
