Here is one of the many large loads that are moved by my company to the Prudhoe bay oilfields. I think this one was only 84 tons net weight...a light one...some are 200 tons or better. The truck behind are "push" trucks to help out on the 10% grades. Rebel xti/ 70/200 2.8

Nice shot. If you tried to move that over some of our roads, the following trucks could pick up the pieces that fractured & fell off! ;)
