    I've been through that plant. It's pretty cool, and the D10 sitting out front was the proto-type. They brought it back from the proving grounds in AZ.

    No, the ride is a bit too rough, the coffee wouldn't stay in the cup:



    However you can order a Liebherr wine refrigerator as accessory:

    I thought Cat parts were expensive until had to buy parts for a JD/Liebherr track loader.

    In the U.S.A. you have the Ford Mustang, but before that the Germans had the Krupp Mustang:
