Driving a 100 Tonne Logging Truck

Ever wondered what it's like driving a 550 hp 100 tonne logging truck?

Video: The Biggest Truck in the World

This week's video doesn't technically feature a van but it is about a commercial vehicle albeit not one you are likely to see during your daily commute. This is the kind of truck that many of us dreamed about driving when we were younger, it's huge and powerful. The description says that it is the world's biggest truck, I don't know if that is true or not but it is gigantic. The wheels appear to be about 12 feet high!

This is one weird looking truck, the wheels are taller than the cab! It might look a little ungainly but it seems to be pretty agile - handy if you live in the frozen north.

Master fabricator Rex Bailey used the Samson™ CNC machine to build the "Yeti" (the abominable snowman), a monster truck that drives through snow more than 3 feet deep. The 76-inch tractor tires, Unimog portal axles, and modified Dodge 3500 Cummins diesel truck are all joined together by custom-designed plates that Rex made with the machine.
