    42,000 lbs ammonium nitrate.
    They only used 4,800 lbs for the Oklahoma City bombing.
    And they still put UN numbered placards on it so all the terrorist know what truck to hijack.

    I know youre talking about hazmat, but if we are talking about things with eventual *potential* for harm, how bout engines for fighter jets, or the raw steel being turned into battleship ammo casings...

    Towed the same quarry blast truck couple times a year. It was the biggest under maintained vehicle I've ever seen. One would think it was held to higher standard. But they didn't come to us except for towing.
