When Caterpillar unveiled the new Cat Truck (CT) 660 at CONEXPO in Las Vegas, we immediately went to work to design some great merchandise to support it.
Obviously a truck will need a standard issue "Truckers Hat" with the mesh back, so that was one of the first things that rolled off the line. But what makes the R3105 Caterpillar CT660 Mesh Trucker Cap special? Take a close look at the front and you'll notice the honeycomb pattern of the CT660 grille reworked onto the hat. While the R3102 Caterpillar CT660 Peak Cap doesn't have a mesh back, it shares a similar feature as the R3105: both have silver thread embroidery to represent the Cat badge on the truck's grille, which on the real truck is made of T304 grade Stainless Steel.

Probably one of our most remarkable new pieces is the CT4011 Fleece Caterpillar Blanket, which has a stunning full-colour image of the CT660 working at night, looking like the tough truck that it is. This blanket is full-sized (measures 60" wide by 45" tall) and soft enough to be used in the crib of any future operator.

Of course, it is hard not to notice that the image on the fleece blanket makes it look like the CT660 is working in a bit of a rough neigbourhood, which is why we developed the CT4003 Wooden Tire Thumper. Made of a durable solid wood with a ridged handle, steel shaft core, and a secure leather strap, this item is a fast and easy way to check tire pressure... but PLEASE, as tempting as it may be, use only as a tire thumper! Of course, the best way to safely & accurately check tire pressure is by using good quality gauge properly.
