These trucks are no joke! They are building a high way that crosses over a road on my way to school. Lets's just say that for their size, these things FLY! Natty

I saw one on I-95.. and it went a lil something like thisA tow truck towing a tow truck towing a tow truck towing....a <IMG SRC="http://www.discoverytrading.com/susanin/lumber/slothnos.jpg"> Watch out GA Highway patrol. When sloth turns on the N2O, you best back off!

I thought that they were not using these things anymore, correct? Another thing that I am confused by is the way that NOS would help this type of vehicle go any faster. NOS and Diesel don't mix, and the diesel engine does not turn the wheels, the electric motor at each wheel is powered by a generator which is driven by the diesel engine.Oh well, long live the Terex Titan Dump Truck!-Scott

And hell ya the NOS helps... look at it man, its got a sloth driving it. What you expect. Its missing its type R badge.. so it would be a lil faster if someone would photoshop that on... *wink wink*

**gsxr92** · 07-26-2001 06:18 PM

a friend of mine is working in a dumping site driving those Titans, so I guess they are still in service, at least in the US midwest. Even those trucks got stuck sometimes, of course, the mud was probably 5' deep....

N2O and diesel mix extremely well actually... a diesel motor can take incredibly high cylinder pressures.
