I'm with Randy on that Kennicot ore hauler!! Really makes a Humsey look kike a toy. Here are the specs of the mine and the ore hauler. Wouldn't ya just love to go down I-15 in one of those..... "The open-pit copper mine is the largest man-made excavation on Earth, with more than 5.3 billion tons of material removed from the area, including two towns. The mine is two miles wide and a half-mile deep. The trucks hauling ore carry loads of up to 240 tons each and have tires nearly 15-feet tall" The mine is temporarily closed while the "Crusher" is moved to another location. These trucks dump their load into the crusher and the ore is chopped into smaller pieces that are put on a conveyor thats transports it for another 2 miles. And you explosives nuts be sure not to miss the blasting sessions at 10a.m. and 3 p.m. every operating day!!  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-19-2004 12:01 AM                     That's cool! If you've got the world's largest hole in the ground and the world's largest dump truck, then you'll need the worlds largest digger to complete the set! Big Muskie I wanna' see that truck run over that puny little SUV!  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 03-19-2004 12:48 AM                        quote: Fab hairdo!  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 03-19-2004 01:23 AM                  Joe: I was going to say something about that toup, but I didn't have the balls... >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Josh Jones Redhat Posts: 1207 From: Plano, TX Registered: Apr 2000 posted 03-19-2004 01:37 AM                        Someone said quote: I heard one radio station giving one away to some caller in a drawing, or something. I would NOT want to win this thing. Like, sure, it's a real pleasure to get the opportunity to drive a 7 mile-to-the-gallon vehicle. Actually our classic rock stations is giving one of these away. I think the addige is, if you want it, you'll draw for it. Also, the coal fields in western North Dakota have some pretty serious machinery they use for removing coal.

Nobody on Film-Tech owns one. Now, the real question is could anybody have afforded one if they wanted it!!!!!  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 03-28-2004 08:35 AM                       quote: Fab hairdo! Oh, no! Is it that bad?! It started out as a flat top. But it's not the hair, it's the shape of my head! I'm also stuck in the 70s "dry" look - not that there's such a thing as a cool hairstyle for middle-aged men. Maybe that's why even lot lizards (i.e., commercial beavers; i.e., truck stop whores) ignore me! Joe, help me be cool like you... I'm completely lost! Btw, ya can't drive that Cat dump truck on the ROAD, so it'd be kinda hard to pick up chicks! Neither does it have its own built-in love den like my Freightshaker. Phil, it's REAL, ya gonzo!  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-28-2004 11:00 AM                     quote: Tim Reed: Btw, ya can't drive that Cat dump truck on the ROAD, so it'd be kinda hard to pick up chicks! Roads?! With a truck like that you don't NEED roads! And, with a payload capacity like that, I bet you can "pick up" LOTS of chicks!  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-28-2004 07:57 PM                     "Roads?!

Tim - it's a blessing in disguise to have the Lot Lizards ignore you! Many are carriers of very nasty things!  |  IP: Logged
