I remember the 100 T brought into Darlington nuclear site circa 1979-1980 Over the following couple years in action I once saw the 100 T cut a ditch a feet feet deep into pre glacier material , a very hard pan bed of material where D9s with rippers had difficulty with ,..
Hi I'm a retired ex-heavy haul truck driver from the UK and driven in Europe including Eastern Europe and yes I have heard of the heavy haul kenworth's and there still using KW's going out to the oil fields in the far north of the USA and in the oilfields of the middle east but I've never seen one in real life but even now at 71yo I would still love to drive one and it would be a once in a lifetime dream come true I've driven stick shift and automatic truck's with my job moving excavators dozers and abnormal loads all over the european content and even had to be escorted with some of the loads i have hauled in my lifetime, thank's for another interesting video on different truck's and other mobile equipment.
Between 1960 and 1961. Between 1963 and 1964. This can be described with a single word that would be spectacular. Dude you really need to hire a script writer.
My Great Uncle and Aunt lived in Goderich, and as a kid in the late 1970's I would spend part of my days watching Champion Graders being loaded on rail cars and shipped to the World. Recently saw a Motorcycle tour on ytube (2022) through South America and in the background was a Champion Grader!

Currently European trucks are using cameras as mirrors. Adding cameras in the front, on the top of the trailer for improved visibility could make it a hit in Europe.
A 1976-84 K100C Aerodyne VIT, with the oval quad-headlamps, was the alternate form of Transformers Generation 1 Decepticon Stunticon Leader Motormaster. Black and chrome and purple and all kinds of menacing sexiness. Prime still beat him, though.
At least one of the early versions of the Transporter Erector Loader trucks for the Minuteman missiles had a similar profile, with an extremely low cab under the long trailer containing the missile.
When I was a truck mechanic at a Cummins Engine dealership/repair facility in the 70s, I think it was Fruehauf Trailers that designed one with a V-903 Cummins Engine. I't also went nowhere and I never heard of it again. I read about it in a Cummins Engine Company publication.
Interestingly, there was already another German "Supercargo" Truck very similar to the Steinwinter in the 1960s, it was built by Büssing from Brunswick (they got acquired by MAN in 1971, the lion badge is the Brunswick Lion, I heard they wanted to get rid of that because the factory in Brunswick is defunct for decades now, they're still in nearby Salzgitter, but the response to that was so negative that they kept it). But it wasn't a truck for trailers but a full flatbed truck instead, where the flatbed made the whole length of the vehicle. This construction was only possible through the under floor engine (the engine is mounted in the lower part of/under the frame, literally between the front and rear axle) and that engine concept itself was invented/developed at Büssing an patented in 1935.
Call the regulations we have now is throwing everything out of work there's no more balanced not enough people are dying silver overpopulated and all these regulations just take away all the cool fun pieces of equipment and give us these stupid battery powered pieces of s*** which make everything a f****** joke cuz they always break down left and right or they just don't go fast enough or they have enough power but they're super quiet because all the regulations they put on the exhaust and everything so now you got this stupid electric vehicles which make no noise which means everything stupid quiet which means you fall asleep at the wheel but now they have self-driving vehicles so people fall asleep at the wheel or normally a okay because the cars will drive themselves or stop themselves which is not what needs to happen. We need people getting into accidents we need people passing away from these accidents because it maintains the balance of humanity and f****** whatever else you want to call it. It'd be nice to go back to those days when badass piece of equipment or still madeand you didn't have all these stupid restrictions and regulations which means you had diesel trucks that sounded like diesel trucks and perform a diesel trucks dumb smoke like diesel trucks and now they're all battery powered me f****** suck!!
These trucks are so amazing and so badass it's a f*** that thing that they don't make them anymore. All these regulations now in today's world f****** sucks it ruins everything now we can't have all these cool badass pieces of equipment out on the road anymore because for some reason or another reason and you know what it just makes life miserable. Not to mention these trucks were just made in a time where when you woke up in the morning you actually enjoy it I look forward to doing whatever you had to do that day versus nowadays nobody wants to look for anything we have to do is everything we have to do f****** sucks all these regulations and s*** it just it's ridiculous. It was nice back in those days because the regulations were practically unheard of which made everything a lot nicer yes they were accidents along the way but hey that's population control flat out now we're overrun with people and they're trying to make everything safer so less people get hurt but you know what sometimes people got to get hurt no I'm sorry not sometimes it's an absolute thing people need to get hurt people need to die in order to maintain balance in today's world and with all those regulations and s*** not enough people.
