bigger than a monster truck? how?

many people believe that monsters are the colossal trucks vehicles in the world and could not be anything bigger than can be moved on wheels, as this is not true and'll show throughout the blog, I will show the most colossal and large vehicles in all the earth,

1 bagger 288

Bagger 288 (Excavator 288), built by the German company Krupp for the energy and mining firm Rheinbraun, is a bucket-wheel excavator or mobile strip mining machine. When its construction was completed in 1978, Bagger 288 superseded NASA's Crawler-Transporter, used to carry the Space Shuttle and Apollo Saturn V launch vehicle (itself built by excavator manufacturer Marion Power Shovel Company), as the largest land vehicle in the world, at 13,500 tons.

The Bagger 288 was built for the job of removing overburden before coal mining at the Hambach stripmine in Germany. It can excavate 240,000 tons of coal or 240,000 cubic metres of overburden daily – the equivalent of a football field (soccer) dug to 30 m (98 ft) deep

2. crawler-trasporter

The crawler-transporters are a pair of tracked vehicles used to transport spacecraft from NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) along the Crawlerway to Launch Complex 39. They were originally used to transport the Saturn IB and Saturn V rockets during the Apollo, Skylab and Apollo–Soyuz programs. They were then used to transport Space Shuttles from 1981 to 2011. The crawler-transporters carry vehicles on the Mobile Launcher Platform, and after each launch return to the pad to take the platform back to the VAB.

The crawler-transporter has a mass of 2,721,000 kilograms (5,999,000 lb) and has eight tracks, two on each corner. Each track has 57 shoes

3. bertha tunnel digger

Bertha, at 17.5 meters (57 ft) in diameter, is the largest tunnel boring machine in the world as of 2013,[1] built specifically for the Washington State Department of Transportation's (WSDOT) Alaskan Way Viaduct replacement tunnel project in Seattle. It was made by Hitachi Zosen Sakai Works in Osaka, Japan, and the machine's assembly was completed in Seattle in June 2013. The name Bertha, after Seattle's only female mayor,

 Bertha Knight Landes, was chosen by a panel including the Governor and Transportation Secretary from submissions from kindergarten through 12th graders, who were asked to suggest names of a female who had significant Washington state heritage

4. Liebherr T 282B

The Liebherr T 282B is an off- ultra class, rigid frame, two-axle, diesel-electric, AC powertrain haul truck designed and manufactured by the Liebherr Mining Equipment Co. The T 282B is Liebherr’s largest, highest payload capacity haul truck, offering one of the largest haul truck payload capacities in the world, up to 400 short tons

The T 282B is powered by a diesel/electric powertrain. Two diesel engines are available: a 3,650-horsepower (2,720 kW) DDC/MTU 20V4000, 90-litre (5,500 cu in) V20 or a 3,500-horsepower (2,600 kW) Cummins QSK 78 78-litre (4,800 cu in) V18. The diesel engine is coupled to a Siemens-Liebherr AC electric drive system. Fully loaded, the T 282B can achieve a top speed of 40 mph (64 km/h).

5. IDF Caterpillar D9

is a heavy tracked-type tractor, commonly refer to as a bulldozer. The D9 weighs about 50 tons and has power of about 410 horsepower and drawbar pull of 71.6 metric tons. It is 4 meters tall, and 8.5 meters long. The D9 is a very popular for large earthmoving projects.

The D9 became highly known due to it use by the Israeli Defense Forces to battle Palestinians. The IDF Combat Engineering Corps operates up-armoured versions of the D9, with Israeli armour kit installed, which allow them to work under heavy fire. The heavy D9 bulldozers served also in the Israeli-Arab wars and helped the IDF breach the Suez canal and a road to Mount Hermon highest peak. However, they gained publicity in the Second Intifada, when they were used to demolish houses, clear roads from booby-traps and explosives and flatten shrubbery and orchards. Military experts cite the armored D9 bulldozer as a key factor in keeping IDF casualties low.
