Right now as a general rule we are limited to 80,000 lbs without special permits. The US DOT has targeted all trucks as rolling cash registers, it open season, they know if they pull a truck over there is some sort of voilation somewhere. I have a new International, it had 29,000 miles and DOT searched for 1.5 hours on the side of a road, couldn't find a thing, finally wrote a ticket said right front brake chamber was extendeding 1.25 of inch too far.

Your Nordberg Crusher's tip the scale's at 72 tons

[bigredmonstatruck]

The digger tips the scales at 48-51 tonnes. These machines are made in Korea at the Daewoo Heavy Industries plant or DOOSAN as its now known. Previously the diggers were only built to 29 Tonnes Gross because that was all you could cart on the streets of Korea before a machine had to be stripped apart and delivered in pieces to the wharf for shipment. top looking setup mate, check out heavy haulage australia on youtube and see how our guys move some serious gear over here!

[russbaby]

nice to see that europe out does anything that the usa can do ! i mean twice the weight on half the size truck. COME ON USA get your act together !

[eirekp]

its a daewoo or doosan as there called now. they have started makeing great diggers.not like the crap they made 10 years ago

Very true. One truck to haul a piece of equipment without knocking off the boom, stick, counterweight, etc. In the US the 100k lb weight is the grey area. Under 100k you are good to go. Every 1000 lbs over you start running up the risk. But find a cowboy that can run 10k over the 100k grey area and the extra cost minus the permit starts lookin sweet. And YES. There are cowboys out there who will run with that overload regardless of the consequences. Tickets on you...haul it.

[1066D]

You are correct sir. Deere farm and garden equipment is always green. But their heavy equipment is yellow and black. But certain companies will aplly their own color. Can someone answer our equipment question? And thank you for the more axles=less road wear..ty.

Daewoo 550lcv

[1066D]

Big rig for a little machine man. Why so many axles to haul a lil dirt scooper?

[1066D]

Isn't that hauler just a wee bit of overkill? An excavator of that size could go down the road on a few less axles.

[1066D]

What was that excavator? It was big just by looking at the tracks and I'd have to say it was a Deere. But what was that mean machine?

[eurodaily]

Correct me if im wrong but are deere machines always green

[dshort92]

no tractors and lawn and garden are, but construction equipment is black and yellow

[dole2011]

Yes thats right.
