    To paraphrase Crocodile Dundee, that's not an off-road truck, this is an off-road truck:

    No, it isn't. The fact that it doesn't need a nice asphalt road doesn't make it an off-road truck. It will always be used in a confined area, driving over prepared surfaces. The picture itself proofs it, that car in the front can drive over the same road. The Kenworth as well as the Paul truck can drive over unprepared surfaces, cross-country. These dumper trucks will never do that.

    That Pacific is a magnificent tractor, but have you compared its wheels with those of the Paul truck??
