Review: 2015 CAT 740 Ejector Truck

CAT 740: The Introduction

Dump trucks, did you know that their earliest predecessors came into fruition before internal combustion engine was developed? They were actually two-wheeled box carts that were drawn by horses and came with automated unloading system that was made up of ropes and pulleys. The first one was actually sold in 1904 and it drastically changed afterward. Now, decades later, the influence of these vehicles rose to great heights and many continue to enjoy the endless advantages that they bring. On the other hand, not all of them are created equal and some are more accepted by the business owners and included on the shortlist is the Cat 740. We at the review team are quite intrigued with this, so we decided to take a closer look.
