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