I think the Liebherr T 282 B are the largest haul trucks made now, their rated to haul 400ton. I've drove the 320 kom. for 9 yrs, haven't gotten into one of the Liebherr's yet .

I'd bet some of them are over 12 feet tall. The biggest haul truck tire I've changed was on a 100 ton truck. I'm 6'6'' and I couldn't reach the top of it.
