It's crazy how good this man is at moving this big of a load. This is one of the people that I believe should get their own tv show. I would probably watch it non-stop.
I am completely blown away with this video. Seeking all the prep that goes into just one move. But not just that the most important being the constant communication and the team work and a whole lot of trust in each other. Great job guys I really enjoyed the video.
This might be the most American thing ever. Kudos to everyone who worked to get this job done safely, smoothly, and on schedule. True Americans, all of you.
Thanks for the excellent video! I am an investor in a logistics company that only hauls over-dimensional, over-weight cargo. The longest trailer (Fontaine) can take a 95,000 load without a jeep or stinger. The tractor is a 2003 Kenworth with a CAT 15L CX under the hood. I think we would need a CAT 16L engine to do what you do. The tractor has four axles, the first rear axle is steerable and liftable. Works well and we have six owner-operator sub-contractors working with us - thank goodness. We moved a Sikorsky S76 CC helicopter but had to use two trucks. The wheels on the bird are so small that we could not put the crated blades under it - not to mention the crate was 32' long. But what fun!!! I don't drive, too old and have post-polio syndrome. I handle the finances and invest; after all it was my son in law's dream and he is like a blood son. The model we built attracts drivers and we have a bunch of veterans. I will put in one requirement: wear a baseball cap that shows your branch of service! Drive safely and may God bless you.
I have hauled alot of oversized loads through new york city up to 14ft wide which is tough but I am really impressed how you guys handled this load great job guys
BA from Az. A 777 is a tinker toy compared to a 797 cat. It takes a semi flatbed just to haul the radiator.the dump bed is thirty feet wide, and a semi flatbed can only haul four unmounted tires without being overloaded. The tires are twelve ft. Seven inches tall and four feet wide. So a 777 is a baby.oh yea the price of a 797 cat is $5,ooo,ooo.oo as of 2018.
@catmodelt I am just a kid, but even I know that you made some spelling mistakes. For example you said 'real trucker,' instead of 'reel trucker.' And you said 'their own trucks,' instead of 'there own trucks.' I guess I'm going to be a better trucker than you are when I grow up!
Backing that jeep up to reconnect the lo-boy part of the trailer together takes skill. Those things can be a bear to align and hook back up. I pulled a Talbert w/out the jeep, it was pull straight forward, then back straight up, this man has skill!

This has got to be one of the best heavy haul videos I have watched on UA-cam. I really liked that you filmed virtually the entire process of the move.
*This machine has an uncanny ability to anticipate my needs. It's like having a personal assistant that not only understands but also adapts to my work style, making each project uniquely mine.*
I usually hate machine videos with music - but everything about this video was dope: varrying camera angles, the lovely elderly experienced driver and his perspective and explanation of things, his American Texas-like English, communication over walkie talkies and all... Thumbs up guys
That 777 on that schnabbel trailer roles and turns like a ship. It really loves to roll. Good thing you have a good pilot and navigator for that highway ship.
I just started binge watching your videos, and they have been helping me understand rigs a lot more. I'm currently in schooling to learn to drive to earn my Class A, so far I'm 2 months in. I'm loving it so far, can't wait to actually start truckin'!
Rocky The Car Pup yep some species of wood even have interlocking grain like elm. Most Trees main weakness is its grain being easy to split apart. Tension and compression strength of most of them is insane tho.
@@chrishall6367 you're thinking of a big haul truck, that truck sitting there weighs like 120k lbs. What he said was he's grossin 200,000 lbs (truck, trailer, haul truck combo, meaning his truck trailer jeep and buggy weigh around 80k lbs). That weight class of haul truck is kinda considered to be the biggest transportable ones. Anything bigger and your hitting everything and wider then 2 lanes. And ya gotta have a ton of axles. And take the machine apart
I sure do miss it I did it. for years then in April 2007 with the same load you have one right now I crossed over I10 from LA to TX and had a stroke on top of the bridge. and that was the end of my driving days
I'm getting my CDL in two more weeks. I watched some truck videos for help with techniques, and now UA-cam is recommending me more truck videos. I can't help but watch them. I think I've found the career for me.
Most I've hauled was around 80 tons gross, about 160.000 pounds, a Cat 350L excavator, with a MAN 33.463 6x6 with a 16 speed Eaton-Fuller, a tandem axle jeep and 5 axle low-bed. Heavy-hauling is great.
Great Presentation. I've hauled a few boxes from 777's, and a bunch of cranes on 11 and 10 axles, so I'm familiar with the work. Love the camera work, esp the camera on the front of the load. Great perspective. Brian, Canada
Yeah, I loved the camera in the cab of the 777. It really gave a good perspective of what it takes to maneuver these loads we haul. Stay safe out there brothers.
Jordan farrar Nope. You have a gearbox. Torque is useful when you start rolling. Even though you don't need that much. To pull that load it's enough a 300 hp engine with 1500 to 2000 Nm of torque. The weakest truck engine can do it.
A mighty "FINE" job you did "DRIVER" on maneuvering your rig in and out of traffic!!!! Also, kudos to ALL of the ground support that made the move a SAFE/SUCCESSFUL one!😎👌👍👏
I hauled a minding excavator 15'1 tall 14 wide on 13axles. Been doing heavy haul about 20yrs now. This guy ran this cat dump so smooth makes me wanna go get re-education 😆
Wow, I drive a heavy KW T880 with a 16 tire Cozad lowboy. I've pulled 100k and that was a beastly load. I love this video, takes some steely nerves to run this stuff. Keep on truckin'
Kailin Gassett It’s not the truck drivers fault the factories decided to start producing automatics and companies started to buy them. Steering wheel holders have one less thing to do while trucking.
That is amazing and I find it fascinating to watch. I had a friend that loaded them up on the trailers for moving. He did other bigger pieces too. I would almost have a heart attack watching him drive them on. Great video thank you for sharing this. 😊
to the drivers that do this kind of work hats off i repect the skill it takes to do these big loads. ill stick with my grain trailer. keep the shiny side up brothers and sisters
That’s the kind of guy you can learn ALOT from just listening to. Thank you for the video! If you ever make it up to Wyoming, get in contact with me 👍🏼
Been doing this for 26 years. Probably hauled less than a hundred loads in his career considering how long it takes to plan out a load and actually make the haul. Kudos though 👍 Lots of respect.
Let us not forget, as we flip through our phones and stare at our computer screens, that so much of our economy still depends on the simple but backbreaking job of moving heavy things from Point A to Point B...and how well and willingly guys like this are doing it, every day.
I was on my way home from work and saw a blade hauling company from Pittsburgh PA and I thought holy $#@& they must be hauling a part of a wind turbine which is a costly thing to be hauling cause we are as a state trying to get away from pollutants like coal to provide electric

The guy mounting the tire was an artist.
Rotating wheel on mounting and rotating are two different things
Also he wasn't mounting he was removing the tire.
Pretty easy with the right tools. My father in law works in the tire shop at Rio Tinto, Kennicott copper mine in salt lake city.
So you're one of those ppl who thinks vomiting paint on a canvas or putting sprinkles on shit is art
@@spoda81 What do you think he had to do later in the video if he removed the tire in the beginning? Mount it back on you moron.
Truck drivers honestly don't get the credit they deserve! This is AMAZING and really cant be done by the majority of people!!
I'm always giving them respect on the road, the right of way and all. Everything I own comes off the back of a truck 🚚
Much respect to these drivers.
This isn't just driving; it's a combination of engineering, bravery, and sheer determination. Incredible!

@@billandersson17 a 797 is a piece of cake to haul vs the 777. They strip it down so much it's not bad at all.
