During the early part of the 1900s, a farmer named Lester Sears altered one of his farm tractors for industrial use. The "Model-L" that he made revolutionized the way that materials were handled. This first truck which Lester created had features like equal high-speed reverse and forward gears, rear-wheel steering, under-the-load front wheel drive and hydraulic lifting and tilting. This prototype was so inventive that it was utilized for 30 years before newer technology finally caught up and took over. Even though the "Model-L" has changed significantly ever since it was originally made, it was full of new ideas which are still used today. In the 1960s, Lester Sears sold his business, Towmotor, to Caterpillar. The new business was called Cat Lift Trucks, that strives to uphold the values and provide the innovative services which Towmotor was recognized for.
