Work this morning (pic)

Took this pic this morning. I can't really say where, but I can tell you it's the largest payload dump truck in the world. 726 000lb (363T) payload capacity. The truck itself weighs 1 375 000lb (687.5T). It has a 4000hp quad turbo 106L V20 diesel engine. I wish I knew the torque numbers, I bet they're astronomical.

its pretty cool to see these. I work for Carter CAT as a field mechanic and get to see things like this pretty often. Here is a pic of cats 797f it has a c175 (v20) 4000hp that is capable of transporting 400 short tons (364t) at 42mph. Pretty cool

That's what we got here, 797Fs and 797Bs. pretty sure thats a F in the pic. I frequently see the F's and B's loaded way past there ratings though. Haha I must say I don't ever think I've ever seen one so clean.

I wonder what the 1/4 mile is just for shits and giggles. Those things awd, 4x4, 2wd? Doughnut or wheelie time!

Theirs a company over here that has some big Cat tractors like that, not as big but they cross a road where its 50mph then drops to 30, and then theirs a crossing for these behemoths....I get scared driving by in the SS I dont want to get crushed.
