Best Line Equipment Delivers First Doosan DD100 Bulldozer
Construction Equipment Guide, one of the leading construction publications in the US recently did a story on Best Line Equipment and one of their customers, Ratoskey & Trainor Inc., a contractor in southeastern PA.
The article was based on Doosan's new DD100 dozer. The DD100 was the first dozer that Doosan had ever delivered in the US and thanks to the expertise of Armand Cencetti, Best Line’s heavy equipment sales manager, Doosan chose Best Line Equipment to be the first company to distribute the DD100 to a US customer.
On August 4th, Best Line and Doosan teamed up to delivered the DD100 dozer to Ratoskey & Trainor Inc., who will use the new dozer for excavation, concrete crushing, and recycling. After hearing about Doosan's new machine coming to the US, Ratoskey & Trainor Inc., told Cencetti that they wanted the first one that Best Line received. Cencetti did them one better and got them the first one in the country. "Finally, in the late spring I let them know the DD100 was coming, and that I had an opportunity to sell it. They pretty much took it sight unseen because they trust in both Doosan and Best Line. They also wanted to be the guys with the first of this line of dozers." said Cencetti.
Ray Trainor said "When they said they were making a dozer, we were excited because we have three in this class, that are the same size as this machine. So, we were dying to try it, and here we are!" Rob Ratoskey followed up by saying "This machine has great technology to it, it has great visibility, everything's at your fingertips so it's really an operator friendly machine. We're really excited that we were the first ones to be able to use it. We have a ton of work for it, we can't wait to put some hours on it."
