The votes are in. According to our unofficial poll among the community of Construction Equipment followers, the Cat CT660 heavy truck was the most exciting machine introduced at Conexpo-Con/Agg 2011.

Our website poll registered 42 percent for the Cat truck, followed by 34 percent for the Deere 944K wheel loader. The other two products tied with 12 percent of the votes: Komatsu's hybrid excavator HB215LC-1 and Volvo's L250G wheel loader.

We posted a separate poll on our Facebook page, and received a different result. Terex LED light towers garnered the most votes, with 10, and the Cat truck and Deere loader each placed second, with 5 votes. The Facebook poll allowed voters to add products, hence the addition of the light towers.

No matter, it shows some passion for products, which we've always known our audience has.

Our mission is to help managers of heavy equipment and trucks to improve their performance in acquiring and managing their fleets. One way we do that is with our Executive Institute, where experts share information and ideas that will enable equipment managers to accurately manage equipment costs so that they can deliver the optimum financial benefits to their organizations.

We also have a laser focus on product development, performance, and technology; as well as equipment acquisition, disposal, and maintenance. Our exclusive Field Tests take earthmoving equipment and truck into the field for professional evaluations.
