Wheels dont fall off......... Tires do explode on occasion though. That'll kill you if your near it.

They'll break the frame in half or break a strut before they loose a rim from the hub.

I picked up on that after a while. Impossible to tell sarcasm on the internet. That's why they invented smilies and crap like that.

I thought they had two larger models. Sorry. We don't have a whole in the ground large enough to need them here.
Maybe I'm thinking of the AC's

Hmmmm nope. The 282 is a diesel electric drive. Cat current is 797F, that's mechanical drive. The 795 is electric drive. Bucyrus had a 400ton electric truck too. But they've been bought out by Cat recently, so I'm not sure where those ones are at. These are the big boys - Ultra class haul trucks. There's none bigger.

I will say, nobody in that shop has a sense of humor unless they get a lawn mower trailer and strap a Tonka truck too it behind this.

The bucyrus trucks were the ones I thought were heavier for some reason.
we were supposedly the first dealer world wide that went live with the product integration. I don't get to play with earth moving though. Maybe someday.

Current tire technology doesn't allow for heavier trucks right now.

A bit of a derail, but it makes one wonder which direction haulage will take due to size limitation

I saw that vid about a month ago. I'm sure it'll work in some places. But not our mines.

At albian, he was in a pickup going to fix a shovel, Haul truck didn't hear his radio call that he was crossing the crusher pad, caught his truck with the left side of the 797.

Our original tow truck is a brutally old terex titan with a 16v149 Detroit. It's locked out of all gears but 1st. It's loud, way undersized, and flat out makes 3 mph.

I wanna see the Terex and the Detroit more so...
