We’re Shifting Gears

After a quite some time of attempting to blend the Caterpillar world with one side of politics, we are now retiring the political part.  The political world is what it is and will never change.  Quite frankly, it’s too depressing and I’d rather beat my thumbs with a 3 pound shop hammer.   The real issue with fans Crank My Cat is the Caterpillar world and all things CAT.  If you are a fan of all things CAT, jump in and join our discussion forum.  Post those picture of your Caterpillars and your Caterpillar experience.  Feel free to discuss problems and find solutions.  Is your CAT smoking too much?  Idle speeds a little off?  Ask!  Have you modified or in some interesting way, Cranked a CAT?  We want to see!  Happy dozing, driving, drilling or pumping and Get Your Crank On!
