King of the CATs

Yours truly and a few of his closest friends from the Western Hemisphere stand in front of a CAT 797F 400 ton Haul Truck being manufactured in Decatur, Illinois. The engine in the F Series is a single block, V-20 cylinder, quad-turbo, 4,000hp monster. The tires are mounted on 63 inch rims and stand over 13 feet tall. The gross vehicle weight is 1.4 million pounds!!!
