As hard as it is to believe, there are times in life when the F-150 just isn’t big enough to carry all the junk you might want to keep in your front yard. That’s why the powers that be have created these mechanical bad-boys to take the load off of, well, the whole planet! If you want pure power, ultimate man torque and beefy beef juice, testosterone-laden size, then look no further than the largest vehicles in the world! Take a peek below, if you can handle it.
MAN Takraf RB293Either owning or sharing some records for largest terrestrial vehicle in Guinness, this German mining vehicle is known as a bucket wheel excavator, and also resembles one of the bad guys from the latest Transformers movie. Talk about manly, this behemoth can move over 8.475 cubic feet of earth in a day. You definitely can’t go wrong when you’ve got MAN in the title.
NASA CrawlerThese monsters haul the biggest load imaginable: the Space Shuttle. They may not have many functions, but they sure have one important one that no other vehicle can perform. The crawler-transporter weighs 2400 tons and has eight tracks, two on each corner.
Antonov An 225Considered the largest plane on Earth, the Antonov can carry 550,000 pounds, including a space shuttle on its back. With size like this, it’s a wonder it even gets off the ground, but it does.
Knock Nevis Taller than many of the world’s tallest buildings if you stood it up on its end, this oil tanker can carry anything, and weighs over 260,000 tons. If the high seas had a weight limit, this ship would take the cake.
