Big kid, little kid, doesn't matter. Shopping for new toys is always fun.

[@tristardiggin]

Exactly! Those are big boy toys for sure, love those CATs

You can trust an unknown future to a known God. Eastern Tennessee viewers appreciate your "shout out" to Stowers Machinery, a Cat dealer whose equipment you operate and sales and service you trust. ...Until next time, may the Lord bless you, Sam and keep you safe. Mike&Pat

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Mike&Pat! We can definitely trust the future to the Lord. Stowers does a great job for sure. God Bless

Thanks for the video Sam, you need the right tools to make your business grow.

Thank you Jacob and I appreciate you watching and supporting the channel. God Bless, Sam

I got invited to a Cat customer appreciation day last year. I didn't buy anything, but I had a good time. In my area, Cat definitely has the best service network. Thanks for sharing.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey thanks I appreciate it! Yup those demo days and customer appreciation days are pretty cool to go to. CAT definitely emphasizes service!

[@allanpeters4403]

Interesting tour of Stowers and enjoyed the message as always - off to church - God Bless.

[@tristardiggin]

Hope y’all had a great service today! Right, it was cool to check out the new machines at Stowers… God Bless

[@drakelivestockfarms7478]

Glad to see a dealer supporting their customers after the sale. Good to see you have a fun day off work but still “working”. What a message! Creation to reconciliation all in one. I’ve got to get you an email about that tracked skid steer in a chicken barn.

[@tristardiggin]

Yeah, it was great to check out those new machines. Good reason to take a day off.😀 Glad you enjoyed the message, covered all the bases in that one.👍 My email is [e-mail]

That 745 was a monster machine!!! It would take a long time to load with the "little" 313😂... I see you didnt get to try out any Dozer nor packer. Thanks for the message it is always great to hear how good God is to us...👍🙏

Right, it would take an hour to load with the 313.🤣 I agree 100% on how God is good to us! God Bless

[@tristardiggin]

@@KPFlyz I wish! 🤪

[@NicolasBN]

Hi Sam, thanks for this video. Very interesting the new Cat 255 and 265... A future purchase ?! In France there are many Cat 323, it is a versatile model. For articulated dumpers I prefer Volvo, Cat is (for me) inferior to Volvo. See you soon.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Nicolas, I wish there was a 255 in the future. I need to wear out the 259 first I suppose. That 323 was very cool to check out…

[@davidstewart8081]

Deoxy(Rib)onuleic acid. GOD has a plan and that is salvation through believing, trusting and having Faith in his risen Son Christ Jesus... Nice machinery. The best part of your vids is the message at the end. Thanks Sam. GOD Bless!

[@alexosborne5629]

Ah, new toys..... 😎 Everyone has their preferences, but dealer network and parts availability has to be a must for all operators.... get a good dealer, and you can't go far wrong !!! Those 745 are a decent size !!! They have a factory that builds these about an hour or so south of me. 😁 Never had the opportunity to go to an open day like this, but then I'm not an operator or business owner 🤷‍♂️😂

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Alex, you are right! Dealer support is very important when buying equipment. That 745 was very cool to see. Most of those events are open house type of events that any can come to… Thanks

eudorafarmlandservicesllc434 That's a case of one in a million and scary but hey, to each his own.

[@rontopping2048]

If you want uncomfortable cab purchase a machine with rollup door. No upper vents, cup holders behind your head, radio behind you head , heavy door that rattles 8 hours a day , you want comfort purchase a machine with swing open door. Simple simple. By design

[@pr4lviper]

@@rontopping2048 that's relative

[@WilliamStonephotography]

It looks like a new track setup on the skid steer. Hopefully, you can finally cross-cut a slope without losing a track. The Cat is garbage on a slope.
