A good few years ago i was at Piave Lines in catterick garrison. Went for a shit, in the cubicle, i'll spare some details, looked at the back of the door and there was a moth the size of SJ suspension bush.

It was my wagon at one point. I didn't have it when that happened. It blew the turbo on the A34 and pissed a load of oil onto the exhaust manifold.

Like i said before. I've always loved trucks. Biggest cat articulated truck is a 740 with a 36t tare weight. If remours are true (they are) they are developing a 745 and 750. Bigger, wider, heavier!
