Yellow | That White Freightliner.....

Those big, articulated 4x4 tractors are truly a sight to behold. Some of the newer ones have rubber tracks instead of wheels.

And that's without mentioning Big Bud.


You have no idea!

to realize the size of these monsters, later read one of them burned.

There were bigger ones at Energy Fuels near Craig Colorado. The didn't have tracks. they had a huge convex pad and 2 legs. The legs would propel it by lifting it up a couple inches and it slid on the pad. BTW, that articulating truck is a Dart 110. It's capacity is 110 cubic yards! Those monster draglines are used only to strip overburden.

I sometimes think there's too much overburden here on TB that needs to be stripped. :hide:
 
I was more referring to the dude having his arm hooked through the steering wheel stirring the :stirthepot: with both hands (thats how I did)........think it might be a Auto-Car :smilie93c peelout:

My dad told me about an oldster at his first company hauling grain out of Colorado that had heated the second stick with a blowtorch. He bent the stick in tight next to the other one and ground out grooves in the shifter knobs for his thumbs. That way he could work it with one hand.
