    This truck is now in the town of Sparwood BC. I bikepacked through a bunch of years ago and got into the town late. So I slept under the truck for a few hours. Laying under this thing in a thermorest was interesting. It definitely kept me dry from the rain... ⛈

    That's impressive for 1973. The biggest modern truck for a long time was the CAT 797F at 440 tons payload, and the current biggest is a newly released machine out of Belarus at 546 tons payload.
    For fun, lets assume that pickup is a 1973 Chevy C10 weighing about 1.6 tons. That dump truck can carry up to 200 of the smaller trucks.

    I was at a heavy equipment convention in Las Vegas. Im not in the business but love anything with tires. There was a truck there that had a room below the bed to store supplies, tools, etc. Big enough for me to set up a bedroom!

    Literally ahead of its time. They weren’t practical because the tire technology at the time wasn’t good enough to support the weight. The “maintenance costs” they referred to were the ones for tire replacement. They disintegrated quickly.
