Caterpillar Steps in to Buy Midwest Dealer Fabick Cat (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Equipment OEMs generally don't like to be in the dealer business. Though some love aspects of being in control, it's not their core competency and having a bunch more equipment on the books, or even symbolically, is counterintuitive. Does anyone remember the sustained success of the Case Power & Equipment dealers? OEMs usually step in when there's a dispute among ownership, snags in a complicated sales process, or when the dealership is sucking wind. Most of the time, the issue never confirmed.
Trackunit Intros Enhanced Fleet Tracking for Unpowered Assets (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's no doubt that you've heard the advice, "Don't sweat the small stuff." Great guideline for life, but often impossible for fleet managers. Along with the yellow iron, there are hundreds of other assets flying below the radar such as trailers, containers, portable heaters, welders, pumps, and the like. Those unpowered items have traditionally stayed outside the connected fleet, causing a visibility problem for managers. Where are they? How many do we even have? Can I track my lunch, because
Autonomous Equipment Creeps Even Closer to Conventional Jobsites (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Once the purview of mining and quarry applications (or in trenches), autonomous and remote-control equipment is being seen on more and more conventional jobsites. Contractor Ferrovial, a global infrastructure company that may be best known in the U.S. for their work on JFK's new Terminal 1, is running three autonomous rollers to construct a new runway at an airport in Puerto Rico. How close are we to fully autonomous jobsites? The single-drum vibratory soil compactors are a construction technolo
Volvo Upgrades Two Compact Diesel-Powered Wheel Loaders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Despite a pledge to electrify its compact equipment line by mid 2020 and do away with diesel, Volvo is still offering and upgrading its diesel-powered compact loaders. Perhaps that pledge was meant for Europe. In January 2019, the company announced that, starting with the European market, it would introduce a range of all-electric compact excavators and wheel loaders. The first machines were seen at Bauma 2019 in Munich, Germany. Fast forward to 2026, after the company has spent years hyping ele
Case Taps Caterpillar Exec to Replace Terry Dolan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's an interesting development out of Racine. Instead of hiring from within, as CNH has historically done for the VP of North America title that heads Case Construction Equipment (and New Holland since 2025), it has hired an executive from — wait for it — Caterpillar. That's big time for an organization that has sometimes seemed insulated from the world outside of Wisconsin and Italy. Kris Dahl will officially replace Case's Terry Dolan after he retires at the end of the year. In the meantim
