@@RHJ3 Those babies were treated like kids. Checked-out every morning. Topped-off every morning. Nothing left to chance. Those units were actually the smaller units; Kenworth 900s maybe. The oil rig movers were huge units that resembled the large CAT trucks you see in open-cast mines, minus the bucket on the back. Believe they were Kenworth 959s or something like that.
Say what you wish about the engineers that design things but it's the guy that actually puts all the pieces together and gets whatever type of equipment it is to actually work as it's hoped to work that's the actual genius, and the maintenance person that eventually has to diagnose and repair it after being in use for some time
If you think this is so.... These puddle jumpers are GENIUSES...LOL MECHANICS ARE TECH... DRIVERS AEE JOCKEYS.. BUILDERS ARE BACKED BY HUGE MONEY... GUESS WHY..?. .
That’s what I’ve done for well over twenty three years. I hold a Certification for Master Automotive Diagnostic and Repair and I’ve fixed every type of issue you can imagine and some of them can be tough but I’ve been one of the best and received all of the vehicles that others couldn’t diagnose. And most of the time on these newer ones it’s nothing close to what the scanners tell you. It’s other issues completely that cause the original issue! The older vehicles were much easier to diagnose and repair. Personally I miss all of the old 50s 60’s 70’s cars and trucks more than anything! Everybody wants $70,000 or more for the oldie goodie’s! There just aren’t enough of them anymore. Most cars and trucks these days are throw aways. They don’t last nearly as long as my old trucks that are still on the road and off. But none the less it was my job and I loved it!
A blast from my past. I ran a "Sow" much like this one in my younger days. The rig could do amazing jobs. Moving the drill rig was always a favorite time. The entire drill rig could be set on its deck. Another truck would mount the top of the derrick on its 5'th wheel and would drive backwards for sometimes 100 miles. AHH, The good old days, LOL.
I'm retired now but kinda miss running winch cat to pull you guys out, bed trucks ,sows and commander. Takes a lot to get a commander stuck but it happens ! I remember watching the derirck go by me at about 40-50 mph with bed truck going backwards ! They took the corner too fast and rolled the whole works into the ditch ,lol.
@@BIGPOLEHERBEAR That "R" word eh. I thought retiring would be great. It was for about 3 weeks and found boredom for the first time ever. A busy life needed a replacement so I tried pouring pure silver into all king of things. That was 11 years ago and I am still doing it. Stop by if you like. I can just imagine that rig, sow and bed all laying on their sides. Was it a triple ? Did the rig get a bend or two? I only went up on the drilling floor once. The rig kicked so hard the kelly broke spraying mud everywhere. EVERYWHERE ! Itb waas up my nose, in my boots, filled my coveralls, I was alone there until the BOP cut in. Everybody else had bailed. That was my first and last time I went up there. The Loader and my baby sow were quite enough to keep me satisfied eh, LOL.
@@TomokosEnterprize Yeah I got killed on my dirt bike in the mountains and brought back to life 3 times. Got busted up pretty bad so not able to do much now. The rig was a double and got twisted up a bit , I was running an excavator and watched it go by then had to go help lift it back and set everyone right side up again.lol.
3:59 This one is polish Star. I'm not sure what model exactly but cab looks like Star 200 version. Funny fact - the name "Star" doesn't come from shiny object in the space but from the name of a factory which got it name from a city where it was produced - it is Starachowice 😄
I think a few of these trucks did well on there own. There is nothing like pairing a diesel with high end torque. However, many of them had to be towed out and they were bulldozers or heavy farming equipment tractors that can EASILY get through that kind of terrain.
I would like this better without the turbo whistles in 4k (a little EQ PLEASE). The long blue flatbed with the tracked rear wheels is a great setup with a talented driver!
That. ‘s the first time I saw a. ( SOW ) big. Long. wheelbase. bed truck. hauling. a. tank that they winched on. the bed of. the. tractor , the back tire’s had. track’s. around. them. , they were playing in the mud, / have a good day. /Bill. S. Canada
Man, that's some hard work . I did it most of my life . I was the one that cut the very big trees down with an old 66 stihl with a 36-inch bar or an 48 . Mud would be so bad we would have a dozer in the front and two log skidders in the back of the truck 12 hours a day 6 days a week. You men go
Electric trucks have low end torque perfect for off roading..that Oshkosh pick up is the real deal. Our local garbage dump still has 2 of them in operation.. always wanted one
First job was getting driven by an osh kosh tract truck in eastern Carolina swamps. No air conditioner, no sound proofing, and a solid mount seat, beat you to death but what a truck. Kinda miss it.
An electric truck could easily do any of this. For 5 minutes. But not in cold weather. And only after charging for 24 hours. And every 10 minutes after that. What these trucks do in a day, an electric truck easily do in 2 weeks.
Depends a lot on battery size and how it is engineered. There's an eventuality to electric vehicles but that doesn't mean that they are going to replace all ICE's in the world. If we can replace the ICE's that run cars and trucks along with semis or even use a hybrid system that would help a great deal. Better battery chemistry and design is already here just isn't mainstream yet and that will make a big difference. Batteries that rely on more abundant and less costly metals.
Stating the obvious: how strong the frames and every last piece of the drive line has to be to handle these loads/pressures. I have owned two deuce and a half and two 5 ton, M923A2. I just used mine for parades but loved the trucks because I knew how strongly they were built.
That’s a cute little bed truck moving those 400’s. Most serious moving companies have tandem/tandems or tandem/triples and also an intruder or commander.
Love that drawbar hook invention on the New Holland tractor. It seems the silage truck gets buried regularly 14:27 Theres a Commander up to the top of the wheels in slime
The federal regulations would never allow it. Just like the old international harvester, early broncos, jeep type stuff that is just fun to run. With the safety and emission control regulations, yeah just never happen. Even the tough old everybody loves them Ford trucks from the '70s, never be anything like that again. And all the electronics and plastics are ruining anything that's built today. Not to mention nothing is overbuilt like in the past.
Capable of: being towed and pushed by bulldozers? getting stuck in the mud? hauling shit around? going backward with no cargo? Making big truck noises?
In case you're wondering why the 2nd truck didn't winch the cargo all the way up before they drove out of the yard; my guess is because that puts none of the weight onto the front tires which will only dig into the mud - notice that they back into the yard rather than driving straight in.
the old gin trucks they've been used very often in the oil field I have seen six of those trucks skid a rig front end of the trucks way up in the air bouncing around a heck of a tough truck
Gotta admit I don't get having a "won't believe what these trucks are capable of" video, and start it with a truck making it's way thanks to TWO tracked heavy tractors.

Some of those trucks were capable of getting stuck in the mud, wow, I really didn't expect that
That long frame Kenworth near the beginning of the video with the tracks on the rear tires is so Bad Ass!
Used to see a ton of those at Abqaiq in the oilfields in Saudi Arabia. Beasts!
And I like how he didn't load the cargo completely in order to improve traction.
@mostlyinterested1016 That must of been a sight seeing them working in the desert. How did they handle the temperature extremes there?

Wow that green truck, that's hauling the crazy old man and the logs, sounds like it is knocking bad.
Yep, definitely not going to last long.
Most of these trucks were built before planned obsolescence....that's why they are reliable and still have that grunt and power 🦾
