Caterpillar diesel Dump Trucks 793d. And 797’s are bigger. I fimed this in august of 2008 at Utahs coppermine in copperton, utah. It is one of the destinations on the 7-day asian tour, mostly people from china on this particular trip. I have been here atleast 20 times. Thanks for viewing……….
Would be crazy to change tires to that thing, lol!
cool ;DD
Cool we have a wheel bearing from one of these and a clutch disc and man are those things massive!
1200 gal fuel capacity
1200 ft to the gallon
3-500 miles a tank lol
them tires gotta be $20k a piece
Holy crap!!!! 257,000+ pounds empty!!!!!! and 20,000 bucks for one tire!!!!!! and they only last a year!!!! like DAAAYYYMMMMM!!!!!! 😮 😮
Omg man its just absolutely crazy how BIG those things are when compared to a tractor-trailer!!!! man, I would hate to have change the oil on them things!!!! the oil filter alone must be HUGE!!!!!!
The west like California and Nevada I have always wanted to visit. Good video.
It must be a great view from the cab
your so right this video is very cool. but i drive these monster trucks! i am a employee of the mine.
cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
these trucks look very cute from this view!!
that thing gota hemi
I thought 57″ and 63″ tyres were more expensive than 20K. Who looks after them, and can they be re-treaded?
The CAT 793D is a big truck but its big brother, the CAT 797F and the Liebherr T 282 are both bigger, heavier, and carry heavier payloads than the 793D. Both the 797F and the T 282 have 59/80R63 tires which are a little bigger than the tires on the 793D. Don’t get me worng, the CAT 793D is still a BIG truck compared to the tractor-trailers shown in this video!
How do you get a job driving one of those??
