I see!😋 So you are a truck driver?🙂 Must be a big crate on your truck! 8x4? That is solid loads, we aren’t allowed to load more than 13 tons on 6x4’s, 16 tons on 8x4’s.. At least on public roads..😅 In closed construction sites, I tend to load a bit heavier 😄
The 772’s I load with the 390, carries about 50 tons😋

@@ehsantop2442 hehe, we do have some new equipment!😄 These D series aren’t many left of, old machines get decommissioned due to insane emission standards and to the need of always have equipment with as low need for repairs as possible!😝😅 We don’t have time for downtime, everything has to produce maximum all the time to meet the demands for production..🤪
Where in the world do you live, and work?🙂
