I watched 2 compressors going through Perryton TX, they were probably 100,000 pounds+ it was interesting to watch them go by. They had done it before, they made it look easy.

Crazy how they move heavy loads of that size aye! Takes major skills and knowledge

22,000 volts welding the boat to the trailer??? I saw the aftermath of a concrete pump boom contacting a 137,000 volt power line. The biggest visual destruction was from the carbon in the rubber conducted enough electricity to melt the 10 tire treads where they contacted the ground. The tires were still holding air the following day. Nothing was welded and damage to the electrical system on the concrete pump wasn't significant. I'm having trouble on figuring out how 22,000 volts would blow out 62 tires.

302,000lbs transformer, 198,000 lbs nacelle units for wind turbines.

Highest respect for all you guys do. Safety is always first. Great team effort.

Wtf? Everyone on the road has to follow DOT... all driving has hazards. You're talking them up without saying anything at all!

Years ago at the west bound scale in Cheyenne, WY I saw an oversize load with 6 tractors hooked to it. One of the drivers said it weighed 2.5 million pounds. He also said they were limited to 25mph and couldn't cross any bridges.

I was chasing wanting to have a crack at road trains but I think I rather specialise in heavy oversized haulage anyone can run freight but to specialise in a specific field such as oversized loads, that not all can do I think is a better road for me.

its actualy quit common in some places. Due to lack of space and multi use, many people Build their Boat Yards and Working hangars some hundret feet away. Normaly thats an easy distance to clear if you have the correct equipment and the boat isnt a fully yacht. The Catamaran was special because it had the size and weight that normal equipment couldnt carry

there is always another problem pfffff

Heaviest load I’ve done was 1kg

John is running a wonderful piece of gear. Big dollars on his equipment. I would faint at what he pays for insurance. His fuel bill would be a kick in the gut also.. I think trucking would be a lot like racing. If you want to make a little money racing, start with a lot of money! I have not seen anything cheap in this video money wise. Big deadlines and loads of responsibility.... Mistakes are huge and costly!! Then you meet an idiot like the one in the other tractor & trailer. Won't move, I guess that is why you bring the police with you! Let the PD deal with this road hog!! Great video...............

Gotta agree with ya - trucking isnt a cheap industry to be in, lots of money and sacrifices to make. One wrong mistake can be detrimental to a business too! You have to have a strong passion for it, and plenty of patience as well

Not a trucker myself but shouldn.t that bulldozer the 911T be on that trailer backwards? That shovel is pushing directly into the air causing loss of speed and using more diesel. Reversing it would be more "aero dynamic" so to speak. Just my observation.

@UltimateTruckers
