Good luck in changing the flat on that lol.

It is more BIG, then it is storage.

**easyrecycle** · 12-13-2011, 08:24 PM

Well...if you scrap yard ever has a rule of only being able to bring in one bed load of scrap this would do a very fine job.

Thats what AAA is for...all tho I can see that phone call.

I thought you said you had a flat tire on your truck.
I do...its just really big...is it still covered?

LoL, that's a nice 2 million dollar toy. You'd also need a nice shiny new grapple to load that badboy.

you sure you can handle the moutain climb just to get into the cab. On a lighter note. Rush our traffic would be a thing of the past.

true to the traffic...upside..you would have a trail of scrap cars you can pick up! That should pay for the fuel cost.

**gustavus** · 12-13-2011, 09:12 PM

I wonder it they rate the fuel consumption by the gallons per hour it uses or miles per.

**PartTimeScrapper** · 12-13-2011, 09:35 PM

I thaught I saw this on megamachines once gus. this thing sucks down like 4 gallons per mile or somethinglike that.

so if you take this into all recycling here in denver and they weigh ruffly 200 tones. they pay 260 a ton for whole vehicles. Thats $52 grand just in scrap value

**IdahoScrapper** · 12-14-2011, 08:32 PM

3000 horsepower engine requiring 264 quarts of oil and consumes fuel at the rate of 137 gallons per engine/hour. 2½ Gallons a minute or over 1 Gallon every 30 seconds !

If diesel is 4 bucks a gallon, it costs $548 bucks an hour just to operate.

That's a thirsty beast!
