No chance of corruption going forward...

@Apexseals i agree it will never reach the levels of production we once had but any manufacturing that _can_ be done here _should_ be done here. It's just too bad these companies care more about bottom lines than empowering their very own country and keeping it afloat. Every dollar spent on a foreign-made product is one we won't likely see back in our economy.

Not sure when this video was actually recorded, but the twin 3512 (equaling 24 cyl) powerpack set up is No longer used. The newer 797F trucks are powered by the Cat. C175-20 engine that is a single block, Quad-Turbocharged and rated for 4,000hp (conservative)@1,800rpm (max) and yields 6,830ft lbs of torque @ 1,500rpm. It has a bore & stroke of 6.9in X 8.7in x 20 = 6,469ci. However it can be de-rated to 3,550hp for mining operations on flatter terrain. In Marine applications and locomotive conversions, the C175-20 can be rated up to 5,364hp and water-cooled quad-turbocharging as well.... water-cooled turbo's can generate higher boost levels using cold outside water (fresh or sea water). Just a few FYI's for the "gearheads" out there..... The C1750-20 capacities (US) are - Cooling System = 306 gal. - Crankcase Oil = 84.0 gals (Not counting the filters) - Steering System including its tank = 94 gals. - Brake Hoist System including its tank = 441.0 gals. - Torque Converter and Trans. including the sump = 166.0gals - Torque converter sump alone = 80 gals - Differentials = 311.0 gals - Each Front wheel hub = 16 gals - Each Rear wheel final drive = 40 gals. Actual tire size for the current model 797F is 59/80R63. The brake discs are 42in outside diameter and there are 10 discs with Each front wheel and 15 discs at Each rear wheel. The differential ratio is 1.276:1, the Planetary drive ratio is 16.67:1 (Yes! - this is a Mechanical drive, Not diesel/electric like all the other brands out there in this weight class), for a total reduction ratio of 21.26:1 and the top speed (Loaded!) is up to 42 mph on level ground. If anyone is confused with the specs regarding the "Brake Hoist System".... the Brakes are continuous Forced oil cooled using a water to oil heat exchanger and the oil, is sourced from the Hoist oil tank.

Watched one of a bit smaller size roll backwards at the edge of a spoil storage area. It was too close to the edge and when it tipped up to dump, the weight transfer caused it to sink into some loose fill and over it went when the ground slid out from under it. I didn't watch them get it out of the dump area but did see it off to the side of the site a week or so later, with the bed bent all over to one side. Replaced the dump bed and hydraulics and back to work it went. No injuries to the driver.

Geo Thomas Charles There’s no pure capitalism in the world every country uses some form of socialism in their system lmao because it would destroy a country without it . I can go more in depth about it and give you explain what kind of parts socialism we use in our daily life we take it for granted.

@@darkmattersolo2137 agreed there's no real "free market Capitolism" anymore. That's what built Western USA and created the wild West... But it's a heck of a system things get done quickly. People get socialism confused with USA govt basic functions such as security and infrastructure but that's not Socialism. However, when the govt got into the game of social engineering through redistribution, control of producion and distribution..it all starts on the collapsing downward spiral that Socialism Always Brings to the host economy because of it's parasitic nature. The more the parasite grows, the more sick the host gets, until the point the host is killed by the parasites. Same result every time..... The ultra socialism the DNC wants to implement WILL bring down the USA if it's allowed to be implemented. The distaster of the ACA is a prime example.

@@100pyatt No you're getting capitalism confuse with socialism lol. We the community as a whole agree on having police officers, an education, roads, and national parks, and more. This an only possible way into our tax's money that we agree as a community to pay. Government means the people, or are you saying you're against your fellow Americans? D.N.C. means Democratic National Committee and they are fighting for a country where everyone, from every walk of life, has a shot at the American dream, so are you disagree on this party for this reason? An I do agree on the free market, but I disagree on essential services an items like medical and medications.
