      its basiclly is concrete covered floors with dirt under it ,not some crazy thick layer of concrete.the floors don't break that easily,they distabute the weight around the truck

      Looking at how wide it is, the weight is probably very distributed equally. And I don’t think the floor is that thick

    I interned at a lignite mine back in 2013. I thought the coolest but about the CAT 777's we were running was the actual ignition-startup process, i.e. pre-lube. Pneumatic starters that sounded like the a jet engine winding up really fast, followed by what sounded like a small explosion. The split second after the explosion noise dissipated, you hear the gurgurgurs of sweet idle.

      There are multiple cameras covering all your blind spots but due to safety you need a spotter in close quarters like this. If a safety officer came around and seen you doing this without a spotter the company would get in major trouble.
