A farmer with the name of Lester Sears, altered one of his farm tractors in the early part of the 1900s. The "Model-L" tractor was the creation he came up with helped to literally change the way materials were handled. This first truck that Lester created had features such as rear-wheel steering, equal high-speed forward and reverse gears, under-the-load front wheel drive and hydraulic tilting and lifting. This particular prototype was so ground-breaking that it was utilized for 30 years before newer technology finally caught up and took over. Though the "Model-L" has altered considerably since it was originally made, it was full of new ideas which are still utilized these days. In the 1960s, Lester Sears sold Towmotor, his business, to Caterpillar. The new company was referred to as Cat Lift Trucks, which strives to offer the innovative services and uphold the values that Towmotor was recognized for.
