Q: What do GC and XE stand for?

A: Many types of Cat equipment are available in multiple models to suit different application needs and price points. These variations are indicated with a “GC” or “XE” after the model number. XE equipment has market-leading technologies and machine features. They’re designed for the most demanding applications.  GC equipment has simple features and technology and is best suited for light to moderate applications. If you don’t see a modifier after the model number, it’s our standard model, which is designed for medium to heavy applications.


 

Q: How much does Cat machines cost?

A:Equipment price is determined by many factors including configuration, age, and features. We recommend reaching out to one of our sales representatives to have a price quoted for you on the machine and model you wish.
