Question:

why do i like heavy looking trucks or machinery?

i tend to like trucks like mack ,man and the likes that look 'steady' or 'heavy' on ground. i wish u could just understand.............am yet to figure it out

Answer:

it is because of the fact that you may be too scared to drive one.....don`t be afraid of failure , go out and learn to drive one! you will NOT achieve success on the first attempt , but if you want it , you WILL achieve it.
you might like them because you think every1 else will see the machinery and think cool i want to know that guy, or you might like them coz they catch your eye.
Me too ever since i was a kid the feeling that you get watching all that power gives me goose pimples all up me arm and down me back right down to me shoes
hard to say- I was like that too- I grew up on a farm, and work in the construction industry running some of the biggest equipment out there. I run trackhoes, payloaders, on and off road dumps, and cement trucks. To me, it's just knowing that it's so big, and takes so much power to even move these machines that's the mystique. That coupled with the fact that they can do so much- they have purpose. Can you imagine some of the things we build (like stadiums, malls, roads, bridges) being built without these machines around to move and carry the load? Personally-and I know this will sound weird- I like to see the black smoke roll out the exhaust pipe on a big truck when you're getting it up to speed. I like the sound it makes, the feel of the truck as it works to get all that weight to highway speeds. I like the whistle of the turbo, the rumble of the exhaust. Also, there's a bit of authority to something that weighs 80,000 lbs and can go 75 mph.
This normal for a guy. I love trucks and any heavy machinery. I can drive anything with wheels. The trick is mastering the complexity. If you take the biggest truck on the road. Control every aspect in a safe, skillful manner. It is a work of art. The hardest part of heavy hauling is mastering your load and maintenance of your rig. The last thing you want to do is kill someone on the road. Heres a little secret of drivers. If you screw up and your in danger of creaming cars, you ditch the rig. It means, f.u.c.k. up and it will cost you your life. I like the odds.
