Bunches of those trucks ship through our port. There's always a fleet of them in the parking area at the port. A common sight on the interstate is a semi with an open top 40' trailer carrying 3 tires...

How many HP??

You'd have to know what it is. It's not as big as they come, though. The Cat 797D has a V24 Quad-turbo that makes 3400HP and it can carry 360tons...
