I can't seem to find my photos of the 795F. Also; nobody else seems to have posted a photo of the Haulmax.











Please use this before clicking "post"??? You may be surprised with what you see!

Interesting pics! The Haulmax looks cool. It seems quite big. What capacity does it have?

Find all you need in your mind, if you take the time.

I take it the Haulmax is the first of the Cat "trucks"????? Certainly looks like a Severe Duty truck like KW or WS would build.

That haulmax reminds me of a Hayes HDX only bigger I'd guess. Thanks for the pics!

The Haulmax is not one of the fabled Cat trucks, its An Australian CompanY using Cat bits, ala DJB and Tiger, I posted a note on here a few years ago, good web site.

This Haul max looks dated with that old Euclid style cab . You can bet your bottom dollar if it does become popular it will be in Cats product lineup in no time .

Where was the Haulmax? I can't believe I missed something that big.

It was in the Central Hall "upstairs" (not on the main floor), near the doors to the shuttles. By Bobcat, Pettibone, Putzmeister...

It was a nice surprise to see an actual one. They had a great presentation video playing that showed a lot of interesting configurations.

It is amazing to see it being loaded by the 690hp 12.5 yard cat 992C just to give you a ideal how big this tractor trailer is.The 3770 is about the same capacity as the cat 775E or 773E.I wonder that the loading height on the side of the trailer is.

I think the cab has a vintage look about it too, especially compared to the rest of the truck, but I am really liking those trucks more and more.

Originally I thought they had articulated steering, being that they have such and 'ADT' look to them.

Some of these in 1/50th model form would be nice.
