But without the GMC and all their greed, If Cat pulls in a fair portion of the GMC crowd, we will have to bail GMC out again. Too big to fail and too greedy to profit in a free market.
Man, just makes sense. If they price it right, they might have a cat company marketing golden nugget. Get them out on the fleet level job sites, a good price and low maintenance I trust smart move. Build them like the beasts you're known for
I hear WS is in production they only have straight 6's though and a MPG of 10-12, but you can haul damn near anything you want to go anyware you please, if it's got roads to and from
You really wanna make this truck recognize? Go back to 1996, the Chevy 3/4 ton pickup of 2500 series. That body style was awesome. The Chrome package awesome. The leg room everything in it was right on. They could come out with someone like that. Body style b**** and a** a winner. Those trucks are still highly. Wanted
The question here is are you an engineer at CAT. Guess we will see in time if these truly go out in the market or not. Apparently multiple sites including landscapers and dal motors have articles about this release.
OK, it's Caterpillar, if they use the old motors and nice ones. Guess what like the 3116 Caterpillar? Beautiful mechanical momurder and they build the chassie and the frame and everything to the standards. Oh my God I want one and I haven't even seen the truck yet. I want a cat pick up
Even funnier is that the fact that it’s stated payload and towing capacity is lower than that of all full size pickup trucks today. 8:33 shows a trailer that would weigh 30k lbs with the equipment on it yeah that’s totally safe…
@michaelmolina3775 from what I'm told by a friend who called CAT it's not a marketing ploy, however, who knows who he spoke to at CAT, so it may still be a possibility. I sure hope so.

Long time Caterpillar quality specialist here. At this point in time we have no plans or thoughts to produce a passenger vehicle. I have asked our facility manager and the head of HR in Peoria, and they've not heard anything of such.
If Caterpillar & John Ðeere built a car or pickup truck and put a good fuel efficiency engine it that got extremely excellent mileage and sold them for a reasonable affordable price they would increase their income beyond the gods. My son would love to build a super safe vehicle that has a simple basic motor in it where anyone could work on it, get ungodly mileage on gallon of gas like 800 or 900 miles per gallon. Then sell it for a reasonable price where he can pay his employees great $ & he would make a small profit
Tell me where I can get a Freightliner Pioneer ----- for $8,000. See 20:30. (Based on the appearance of the truck shown, if it were available, you might be able to get a stripped to nothing rolling chassis for that, but I doubt it.) As to the Cat truck -- the short story I walked away with is that the "Big 3" all offer as much or more than this truck does. I laughed out loud at the "burning Chevy" at 19:20 -- look closely, that's a Ram. 900 lb ft of torque ( @ 3:50 ish). GM, Ford and Ram all offer more torque albeit in 3/4 ton chassis. I also find it highly unlikely a 6.7 L diesel can be installed in a 1/2 ton truck and not have a lot of problems in the front end (too heavy).
All new trucks need to be dependable, affordable and useable. a hitch, a winch, and a lift kit. considering how bad todays roads are as more people try not to spend money on roads this truck needs to survive. I like what I hear so make it real, not just an ad.
Make it cheaper than giant dominant brands in the market, make it fuel economical, at least 4 cylinders with hybrid, advanced safety features, infotainment, comport, lo maintenance, durable body, and customizable like milwaukee modular box. And I'm 💯 % you will dominate the market.
It's funny how New vehicles break down so much. Before a person could go years without having mechanical issues. Today, all new vehicles get sent to a mechanic at least 4 times a year.
There is now a very LARGE PARKING LOT in Either Kentucky or Tennessee fill with FORD TRUCK that were over produced and not sellers on the market. You can get a Ford F150 for around $18,000.00 there. I hope Cat makes better Quality Trucks.
If Caterpillar makes their pickup trucks as good as their big equipment, I will change brands in a heartbeat!
I'm with you a $40K base? The Ford, Chevy and Toyota are kicking $70K and up for junk!

I WOULD BUY A CATERPILLAR PICK UP, GREAT COMPANY.
This truck is a unicorn
NO A RHINOSORAS!!!
Cool how it glides down the road with out the tires turning! Awesome feature. And sideways as well!
Hey, these trucks can DRIFT! LOL
😂
Sliding on ice with wheels locked up lol.
Saves on tires.
Needs 8 foot bed and a standard transmission
A quick search will confirm your statement. 👊
Even my wife said, " If you really want to know about it go to the site."
It also needs a 2 speed rear-end 😂
Exactly my thoughts, a 9 speed manual transmission would be awesome and fun to drive
As of August 2024, Caterpillar has not officially confirmed or announced the production of a pickup truck.
"Warning Will Robinson!" Looks exactly like the latest GMC Canyon model.
F150
But without the GMC and all their greed, If Cat pulls in a fair portion of the GMC crowd, we will have to bail GMC out again. Too big to fail and too greedy to profit in a free market.
The at4x canyon looks amazing.
It is lol cat hasn't done this nor will they
It will be 80k after the dealership gets them on the lot
Because dealerships will never receive a cat pickup, cats never mentioned it.
Msnbc fox news say it is real ...
@stevegannon9419 then when you drive it off the lot it'll depreciate 40,000
Ehh last time I checked cat is on the expensive end of equipment I’d wager it would cost 1.5-2x what it’s ford Chevy or ram equivalent would cost.
$100K when you add finacing origination fee and interest.
Man, just makes sense. If they price it right, they might have a cat company marketing golden nugget. Get them out on the fleet level job sites, a good price and low maintenance I trust smart move. Build them like the beasts you're known for
I agree totally.
I just wish that this truck could be real.
Kenworth and Mack are making a pickup truck too. Keep holding your breath

I hear that Harley has one coming out too.

This turned from a Caterpillar ad to a Ford F150 ad at the end..
Deep connections with car makers that sell trucks that are plagued with issues . I’d buy cat over any other
You had me until the Freightliner pickup for 8k. Can’t wait for the Boeing flying truck! 🤣🤣🤣
WTF. A FLY
Thank you caterpillar for doing this you did shake up the market.

Well, consodering CAT gave up on aftertreatment and got out of the on-highway market because they couldn't figure out the aftertreatment . . .

And you know that because...

Cat is NOT producing a truck. Per Caterpillar, this is not true. In fact the truck shown is a Ford.
Even funnier is that the fact that it’s stated payload and towing capacity is lower than that of all full size pickup trucks today. 8:33 shows a trailer that would weigh 30k lbs with the equipment on it yeah that’s totally safe…
Price range: $40,000-$70,000, which is pretty reasonable, compared to the $100,000+ junk you get from the “Big Three”. 🤑
Time to invest in Caterpillar
This is a very sharp looking truck, kudos to Caterpillar
40,000 is not cheap that’s ridiculous. I paid 20,000 for my 2017 Toyota Tacoma and it’s doing just fine.
Did you buy it in twenty seventeen??
Wow!! I want one!!.. as a retired trk driver there is no doubt! I would buy one..anything Cat makes. Freightliner too!
I’m looking for a all around , farm , family, 4x4 , all terrain, reasonably priced truck . Bring to the USA !
Like your video and I Love Caterpillar so I subscribed
thank you, amazing truck,
It's a scam. CAT isn't producing any trucks. Call CAT, ask them....I'll wait.
I agree, but this might be a marketing test to see the market exists.
@michaelmolina3775 from what I'm told by a friend who called CAT it's not a marketing ploy, however, who knows who he spoke to at CAT, so it may still be a possibility. I sure hope so.

Cuz it's not a real truck.
Side ways steering is the only thing missing.

800 or 900 will not happen ever . 80 is still a reach😢
I'd say Google the truck price and you find it will cost as much as any other new truck from GM, Dodge, Ford and Toyota.
About time
GMC truck and Yukon XL. Awesome vehicles
It's certainly cool looking. The rest is a wait and see.
❤i love this Cat Pickup.
Just need a straight V8, no Turbocharger or Hybrid. This is the problem with the other brands. Just a straight V8 is needed.
add titanium aluminum alloy with only 1ft sheet layers be enough to withstand any weather damage ect lol
I just love it. How do you get one?
I AM SO STOKED for the CAT!!! But thank you for showing Freightliner's option and are you sure you said the price right $8k -> $40k????
Is it a hybrid diesel? Like the Edison electric semi's..?
Wow 😲 gotta have one !
How do I go about buying one I want 1 put me on the list.
I've seen pictures of CAT trucks that look like Ford's, GM's, Toyota's. A.I. scam.
this is a good truck.
This isn't a cheap truck. $70K pickup truck is more expensive than most high performance sport cars.
That is very ignorant! It my not be everything but open your eyes. You can pay well over 100K for trucks and even American cars…
One way to make them comform- don't buy until they do. Simple.
To good to be true
Too Right 😮
Nice Truck 😮
Check out the electric alpha wolf.
It’s a cheap version of the Rivian with good looks and it’s available now
Tell me where I can get a Freightliner Pioneer ----- for $8,000. See 20:30. (Based on the appearance of the truck shown, if it were available, you might be able to get a stripped to nothing rolling chassis for that, but I doubt it.)
As to the Cat truck -- the short story I walked away with is that the "Big 3" all offer as much or more than this truck does.
I laughed out loud at the "burning Chevy" at 19:20 -- look closely, that's a Ram.
900 lb ft of torque ( @ 3:50 ish). GM, Ford and Ram all offer more torque albeit in 3/4 ton chassis. I also find it highly unlikely a 6.7 L diesel can be installed in a 1/2 ton truck and not have a lot of problems in the front end (too heavy).
Caterpillar biggest pickup competition is Kubota. 😁
All new trucks need to be dependable, affordable and useable. a hitch, a winch, and a lift kit. considering how bad todays roads are as more people try not to spend money on roads this truck needs to survive. I like what I hear so make it real, not just an ad.
I feel like Heavy D Sparks should team up with CAT if this is real since he's working on making his own brand/line of trucks!
I didn’t see you give a response for the Ram that I have and love and were was the price, oh too much to mention I guess.
i'm on board with this marvel 😊
I love love the freightliner❤❤❤❤

Its about time, heck ive already got the hat and a cat hoodie!
Cat makes the best heavy equipment in the world imagine that in a pick up all in ill trade in my silverado
Maybe cat is just putting this out there to see people's thoughts on this truck. If this is true I'll take one what is the deposit?
LOVE THIS
The best truck ever built besides the Axiom -TR5
You peaked my interest!! I would like to own one of these!!
Nice truck! Looks to me like a close copy of a Ford F150
Does the diesel model have to have DEF?
Nice!!
Is it gonna require Cat maintenance?
Where can we see these trucks the Caterpillar truck and the freight liner
Cat has a massive fan base…. I mean huge and many people would switch to Cat
Thank u guys !! 🎉😂🎉🎉🎉🎉 let’s go ❤️🔥🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
12k towing us pretty low these days... Is it sufficient though.. absolutely
Ford already has a recall on the powerboost engine, which is no surprise
I thought you said it was affordable? I like the design of the interior one profile shot made it look like a Chevy overall I like the design

I know John Deere was about to make a pickup! CAT wants in! 😂
About time some other manufactures give big 3 plus toyota a price challenge.
Looks nice but I'll wait until the 3ndor 3rd gen of the vehicle.
This add seams like a come on! Where do we see and buy them?
This will come down to 3 things! Price, mileage, and reliability!!!
I like the looks. Needs a long bed more towing capacity
Bumble bee as a truck I want it 😂
Is it built by DEI types?
Then you aren't qualified to get job.
