The Caterpillar 777 is used mainly in mining operations, where its huge capacity makes short work of hauling earth. It can carry up to 100 tons of material, which is when its 1,000hp engine will burn up to 22 gallons of diesel every hour. Each tire weighs 2,500lbs and costs $10,000. These monsters are manufactured on Caterpillar’s 350 acre plant in Peoria, Illinois. Over half of the earth moved in the world is moved by Caterpillar trucks like these.
