Whats the biggest thing you have driven?
Okay whats the biggest thing(s) that you have driven?
For me its a Cat 330CL Excavator
A tri-axle peterbuilt with 20' trailer on the back, and a ASV multi-terrain skid loader.
And I have mastered the controls of a CASE 580 Super M. These things are so fun to operate in the mud!

IHRC SW1200 15 years ago for about 5 feet.
Also a Lake Erie Ferry Boat when I was about 7 or 8 I was invited into the wheel house and held onto the wheel for about 10 minutes.

Oh and also got to sit in the engineers seat in a IHRC GP-35 numerous times while in motion only thing I got to touch was the horn

Cat IT14G(?) loader, loading coldpatch over the summer...at least I think that's the right model, they're not all that big...
...in terms of length, a pickup with probably 30 feet of culvert hanging out the back end (and chained to the tube trailer attached to the truck)...
...and for a bit of variety, about 4 years ago I spent about a week learning how to operate a Cessna 172 (airplane)...but didn't solo and haven't flown more than once or twice since (and that was commercial)...not the biggest vehicle around, but different...
...never been in the cab of a moving train either- so I can't claim I've operated a locomotive either...

GTW GP9,38, SD40's. Every EMD model CSX has(mostly four motor), EL SD45-2's MRL SD45's, SD45-2's and F45's.
C&O, NYC, PC, ATSF F7's. LTV F9's.
Varoius CN engines. Plus varoius EMD & Alco switchers, other EMD road units. I have always avoided ALCo & GE road units..as the downloads never have all the files..bastards.
