    The direct drive fan is actually as tall as me. I stood on the ground, straight upright to shoot this shot, so it will give you an idea of the machine height. The cab is up on top of all this.

    The engine info sticker. As an industrial Cat machine notice how all the emissions compliance relates to the U.S.A.

        maybe why we cannot even get a coffee cup holder in the KWs LO L

        I would rather have a truck that was not in the work shop every second week LO L . And i would also have to say the 535 horses in front of the mack is a pretty fresh team and not a lame one amongst them. It's pretty amazing really

        I heard of a road train set up with an extra motor fitting into the back A trailer.

        I believe Kalari's type trailers have or can have rails for an other motor.

        I don't really need a 1000HP. LO L hard enough not to spin the drive wheels now; especially with the cumming sigmatures

        Interesting set of photos LG
