My and ma friend got bored and was playing OpenGuesser or whatever and randomly came across this- our telepathic link instantly had the same thought anyway but wha the actual fudge is this.
They're semi-trucks being towed? Lot easier to do this than multiple trailers.
A semi is rated to tow tens of thousands of pounds, so this is absolutely nothing for one to do. And sometimes you need to transport multiple semi's to a destination but don't need multiple drivers to do it. This is probably the easiest/cheapest way to do it.
When a truck loves another truck...
In all seriousness, here in Texas is common to see this going 70 MPH on I30. Yes, it is terrifying.
Semipede
See this a lot in Wisconsin. Delivering trucks.
It's a truck-truck-truck truck, towing a truck-truck truck, towing a truck truck, towing a truck. Duh.
It reminds me of the cover of the Aerosmith album Pump
Children, this is how F-250s are created
The initiated among us call it a turtrucken.
its not complete. once enough are on it makes a circle and the front truck mounts the last truck.
A truck centipede.
Mating season I guess
They've already got wheels, seems silly to put them on a trailer and pull a completey different set of wheels when these work fine.
This is actually how baby semi trucks are made!
Seriously though, they're just hauling semi trucks: It's more cost effective to tow multiple semi trucks with a semi truck than it is to deliver each one by driving it.
Semi centipede?
Looks like someone knew the Google maps car schedule for that road.
