^ I became a huge CAT fan! Last year, I bought a diesel Magnum light tower from a guy who's GTF out of Calfornia. He was selling a rodeo grounds that he owned, and all of the equipment was up for sale. I paid $6,500 for a practically brand new light tower, and he gave me a beat to Hell looking Allmand light tower with a CAT motor for free. The clock showed less than 3,000 hours but it didn't run. It looked like a mess with all of the lights broken and two mismatched sized tires. I took it all apart, spent a few $K on all of the electronics, the light bulbs, and a new roof, fuel pump, wheels and tires, new winch, and fuel cap (they ran it without one).
It fired up, and now it looks and runs like a brand new machine. I could not believe how well it runs, and how strong it is. I love the sound too. 100% impressed with the CAT motor. It runs so much better than the Magnum that is basically new. The Magnum has a Kubota 3-cylinder diesel. The same motor as the one in my RTV 9000. You can just tell that the CAT will run forever.
