I believe it is a case of he who dies with the biggest toys, wins.

Thing is that's not even the biggest.

It's possibly the biggest that can still allow for a truck bed or 5th wheel coupling but coppards have one that won't even fold up behind the cab. And it's on a demount setup so the lorry can drop it off and it has a set of tracks that will pick it up

hiabs have just gone mental .... can't see HTF they make any money with the level of investment in both the crane and the truck

so who wants to hazard a guess at the loading on the ring coupling/pick up hitch on the above then or alternatively how much over the 3t design limit it is??????

" Lol, I mean you can't argue they don't have the budget for it either!
There is a well known pipeline going through my area to an airport that seem to favour tractors a little too much too.
Its only fair on the people doing it properly that this sort of thing is policed correctly. "

if only it happened

Like I commented on that post, if the hitch was mega over loaded the tyres would be near flat! Either it wasn’t (somehow!) or they’d pumped up the tyres to the extreme!
My tractor sits with the rear tyres ‘loaded’ with my 1 ton flail on the back!

hopefully that was taken with a load weighing pad under the jack leg and zero on the pick up
no way could that EC140LC be sat in that position on a two or three axle trailer and not be putting at least 7t++ on the tow eye
