Three Brands, Three Strong Resale Markets
Caterpillar and Cummins get the headlines, but Kohler, Generac Industrial, and MTU move enormous volume through American facilities — and each has a dedicated used-equipment market behind it. Kohler's century-old industrial line anchors hospitals and water plants. Generac owns light-commercial standby and leads the gaseous-fuel segment. MTU (and its Detroit Diesel ancestry) brings German big-bore engineering to data centers and utility peaking plants. We buy all three, every series, every fuel.
Kohler
20REOZ through 4000REOZ diesel units, KG-series gas, and KD-series big iron.
Generac Industrial
SD/MD diesel, SG/MG gaseous units, Gemini twin-packs, and MPS paralleled systems.
MTU / Detroit Diesel
Series 60 and Series 2000/4000 packages, MTU Onsite Energy branded units.
These brands most often reach us through building retrofits and municipal upgrades: a hospital replaces a 750 kW Kohler during an expansion, a school district swaps a Generac diesel for a gaseous unit, a county water authority modernizes an MTU plant. In each case, the outgoing machine is a low-hour standby unit with years of life left — exactly what the used market wants. Both diesel and natural gas or propane configurations qualify.
One Nameplate Photo Starts the Offer
Whichever of the three brands you have, the process is identical: text the unit's data tag, hour reading, and your city to 954-740-1983. We identify the model, check current comps, and send a firm offer — then our removal team handles everything from disconnect coordination to the truck. Payment always lands before the unit leaves. The details are on our how-it-works page.
Kohler, Generac & MTU FAQs
Are Generac Industrial units worth selling, or only CAT and Cummins?
Generac Industrial gensets — especially gaseous-fuel units and MPS paralleled systems — have a strong resale market of their own. They dominate light-commercial standby power, so replacement demand is constant.
Our MTU unit is badged Detroit Diesel. Do you still buy it?
Yes. Detroit Diesel, MTU, and MTU Onsite Energy are the same lineage, and Series 60 and Series 4000 packages are actively traded. Send whichever nameplate is on the unit and we'll identify it from the model and serial.
Do Kohler generators hold value like the bigger brands?
Kohler's industrial line — particularly units with the KD-series engines and Fast-Response alternators — resells very well. Kohler has powered hospitals and municipal sites for a century, and buyers trust the name.
