I'll start. Occasionally need to get in a 329D at work. View Quote Had to look that up I did logging for 2 years and drove a 440A and a 540G I've been running my friends 753G all this week putting in a concrete pad and steel building. Thats probably pretty comparable to the 329D, except more fun because the super short wheelbase keeps you on your toes |

Btw, op. What's more important to you? Dimensions or weight? |

Somebody on here has to be a captain of a commercial super tanker ship.

A Freightliner W900.
About 11,000 lbs empty. Most days I end up with about 3,000 lbs of freight in the thing. Not much but I like it. |

Two of the drill ship captain's I know are on here occasionally. Both have unlimited licenses and came from the commercial shipping side- one a tanker driver and the other a cargo vessel. No idea the biggest vessel they've commanded. I've also met one of the guys who is in line to be one of the captains on the Shell Prelude. Not on arfcom as far as I know though.
From the link- "The Prelude FLNG facility will be 488m long and 74m wide, weighing more than 600,000 tonnes fully ballasted - roughly six times as much as the largest aircraft carrier. Some 260,000 tonnes of that weight will consist of steel - around five times more than was used to build the Sydney Harbour Bridge." |

I occasionally run a 28" swing American Pacemaker lathe. Has 12 feet between centers, and maybe 25 HP. Probably weighs 15,000 pounds or better. Our biggest mill is an ancient K&T horizontal that weighs maybe 5k.
