From what the Discovery Channel tells me... Most earth-movers and dump-trucks this big are generally employed in large-scale mining operations. Historically, they used narrow gauge trains, but they would have to pull up and re-lay the track almost everyday.

No, no, you've got it all wrong. This beast is a joint-venture between GM and CAT. You see, GM is mad that the Excursion is bigger than the Suburban. So with this, you will get much more room, and some features not found on the competitors (ie, the handy shovel-plow on the front).
It should be available at your local GM dealer in 2 years, badged possible as a Hummer, but probably as a 'Chevrolet Total Crew Cab River Fording Family Crusier', or simply 'Apocalyps' (in accordance with Avalanche)

I saw a show on how they build them... They assemble sub components in a giant factory, and then move them out to the job site, where they are built... they make them larger than that too.
You can try one out at your nearest komatsu dealer... which would be in Japan

It could still easily slip over and destroy that car. I wouldn't like to drive alongside it in case it didn't see me and pulled over for a rest...

Doesn't look big enough for that, but there are bigger ones, where it has a gap about as wide as that truck.
