That's pretty impressive. I love big trucks, and have never seen the
Kenworth in person, but I think the M125 might still hold the title of
"largest cargo truck". The cargo bed has got to be close to 70" off the
ground. Those tires (14.00x24's) are about 54" tall, and there's easily
another 12-18" above them to the cargo bed. When you walk up to an M125 (or
an M123 for that matter), they are very, very impressive vehicles. The winch
on the M125 looks like it's as big as a small car hanging out there in front
of the truck. And besides...... You know a truck is BIG when the mudflaps
have ladders built onto them.... :)
