I´ve seen this before on the Discovery channel, it´s used to build mega projects like the Three Gorges Damn in China. I wonder what brakes that thing has, imagine trying to stop that when it´s fully loaded :shock:

In ten years people will be buying it like the do with trucks now. "I need it for camping"....might aswell take the house along. Afterall, that is the point of camping. *sigh* :roll:

Doesn't look much different then your standard large farm combine. Those things are huge.

Supposing your tyre goes?


The trucks are supposed to be driven at no more than 40 miles per hour. That is relatively slow, so if a tyre blows out it's not going to cause an accident in most cases.

A blow-out can damage vehicles close-by because the tyre is holding so much air and just the force of that... Drivers have actually been killed by tyre explosions, but not on our trucks, thank goodness.

I would love to see someone do a review on that...

Clarkson: "The next car we have here...cannot fit in our studio. We'll take a look at it"

"The Stig! No understeer, look at it! I don't know how he does that!"
