The general public will never understand the awesome designs of that equipment OR the skill, teamwork and communication that goes on, to safely transport these kind of loads. Great job by the entire team!!
Been there done that. Was a blast. Except the one I worked with was set up about the same except we didn't have that lone axle in the middle on the rear sections. Ours wasy also a trunnion axle all the way through on our wagon with all disc brakes.
I miss the excitement and pay of escorting those types of loads.... paid vacation is what I used to call it lol except when 4-wheelers try to be stupid
Great job by the driver and whoever was steering the trollies. Just curious why the route planner had to drag that load through a small town intersection?
I live in a small Michigan town and we've had a couple go through. loads like that, at 17 feet tall, are generally too tall for expressways. Since off-ramps and on ramps aren't always across from each other. Here there are no bridges between two major cities. We have a similar turn here for the main state highway. These trucks take it so they don't have to worry about finding that an exit ramp doesn't lead to an on ramp. Even then, being as wide as they are, they'll often be too wide for even the off ramps. That trailer will cover the entire ramp and the dirt on the sides. Any dips, or loose place, as heavy as that is, can lead to the load shifting, or the trailer sinking. I'd hate to have to try to lift that out of a dip.
The 1 that I saw had a compressor of some kind, they had a bucket truck to raise stop lights that were not tall enough. I’m wondering where this one is??
Eso es exactamente lo que yo digo!! A poco esa madre que llevan cargando esta taaaaan pesada como para llevar tantos dollies??? Pero ya ves,puro exibisionista!!!!!
Don’t see what the fuss is all about. Intersection large enough to pull a quad around there with room to spare. Putting this load into a tighter turn would bring out a better side to the skill of the driver and trailer pilot
I don't understand. The geometry is COMPLETELY predictable. Either the terrain will allow the vehicle and load to follow their best track, or it won't. The track can be surveyed ahead of time and drawn on the ground to completely eliminate any possible tracking error. This would be on level ground, of course, as depicted in this video. On a severe side slope, additional factors have to be taken into account, and some of these such as track creep and unanticipated shifting of the load could become genuinely problematic. But this, on the video, are you serious?

I've been driving for 32 yrs. now. I'm always amazed by seeing those rigs!!!
I'm amazed why loads like that have to routed through small towns that aren't built to handle them. But hey makes for event to watch.
Please did you drive something like this before? It's really great.

A true professional team. Every single one of them is important. One slacker can screw up the whole job. Well done girls and guys.
Not screwing the girl then.

Nearly impossible to weigh it out. Scale it out....
Transformers, more than meets the eyes!!!
Well dang ... 😮 They worked that thing
PLOT TWIST-
THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO TURN LEFT!!!
🤣🤣
I was about too say it would be more impressive to see them turn left 🤣🤣🤣
Nice footage Mr.Dunlop!
I drive oversized loads daily
I love my job
How would you know
Un verdadero maestro y profesional del volante. Lo felicito!!!😊😮
I miss the excitement and pay of escorting those types of loads.... paid vacation is what I used to call it lol except when 4-wheelers try to be stupid
Looks like the trailer weighs twice its load
Yep😂
I use to do that, was a lot of fun
That’s a serious trailer...
0:45 there's is nothing more powerful than a Kenworth w 9000
Can you go thru a McDonald's drive thru and get lunch
looks like a Transformer load? They’re usually high and heavy causing difficulty transporting them.
Wow that's amazing!
I love the girl in the shorts
You would
How do you know its a girl ?
Awesome

Correct and then you have to "ramp" them
I think the girl was steering the trolley, at least the front one?
YOU GOTTA GO WHERE YOU GOTTA GO!!
Ross. The same holds true, when you gotta go you gotta go!
That was interesting, nice video ✌️
Sometimes you don't have to have that many people at people really know what they're doing
I, have seen alot of people killed in regard to extra long trailers. Alot of motorist don't look good and turn into the trailers and get killed.
That truck driver could of pulled forward more and than jack knife to make that turn a lot easier
thank you for video
Esa mujer salió al mercado por comida o es parte de la seguridad es que así parece que salió a dar la vuelta nomás 😝😂😸😝

Awesome.
Which rigs, the rigs she is standing on or the one that's hauling the heavy load?
I was thinking that as well. The load didn't look that heavy a simple flatbed would have been fine.... or so you would think!
He should have kept slight left then started to make his right turn just before where the female was standing in front of the circle....
Do the truck tha follow along with the trucker help with pre trip as well
Just Amazing!
What's the weight of the thing they are moving ? .... 200,000 maby
I'm truck driver sometimes that's guys made to much dremat
that is a lot of wheels,
That trailer seem incredibly unnecessary for the small item its holding.
Lol...total weight is 532000 lbs , 18 feet wide , and 17 feet tall .
funny what to use for this load. in the netherlands they pud some spmt's underneed and drive like it a toy
Where,where,where.......?
what does she do?
Is the rear tractor slaved to the front?
72 🛞 gear down Rolling
Route looks familiar.
Whoooo!!
Unlike the person that took out the front of my vehicle with a trash truck
cool
WHERE WAS THIS AT??
❤👍👍👍
532,000 lbs of what ?😐
Transformer
What city was this in?
Looks like Lake Mills, Iowa
don't take the highway bc its bigger!!
Nice driving
Seems like an incredible pain in the ass.
Could've just thrown it on my 5x8 trailer and been done with it.
HA! ;)
What is he hauling?
I always wondered how they turned corners when they needed to
They have steerable rear dollies
it's more the fart they make with the trailer than the load they tow ...me gustaría verlos en la rumorosa,en el espinazo del diablo en México

Right they had all the room in the world...... oh wait they were supposed to turn left 🤣🤣🤣
Bukan mudah utk kendali truck yg size mcm ini apa lagi jika bawa benda yg berat dan besar.. Driver yg mahir saje yg dpt kendali truck spti ini...
No. Only idiots cannot.
No idea what the girl is doing, maybe practising her dance steps, nothing tight with this turn.
thinking you need more than a C.D.L. to drive those rigs..
Not in California. You just need the permit from the city's you are going thru

A bit over kill lmfao just made ur life harder
Too bad you weren't there to show them how it's done.
Won’t be surprised if that transformer weighs close to 100ton
So many wheels and axles for a load less 300 tonnes🤡🤡🤡
