We are excited to announce that Caterpillar is developing a complete line of Caterpillar vocational trucks for North America. Imagine the possibilities that a premium, purpose-built Caterpillar truck can bring to your business.

The North American strategy is designed to position us as a market leader in the Premium segment of the vocational truck business. Caterpillar's industry-leading technologies, extensive knowledge of worksite and operator environments and unparalleled product support will offer Cat customers a world class, purpose-built product line of vocational trucks. The first Caterpillar heavy-duty trucks are scheduled for introduction in 2011 with production targets set for mid-2011.

For the last 40 years, we have shared great success in serving the on-highway industry. While we will continue to provide industry-leading product support for all customers who operate Caterpillar on-highway engines in the future, we will also journey together in this new and exciting direction to provide innovative and attractive options for Cat customers in the Dakotas.
