Power Loader from Alien Movie

I had a summer job in a machine shop where I operated a power loader to put boxes full of camshaft bearings in a row for the next center less grinder operator to finish them.  These boxes were massively heavy and the loader also lifted the box up onto a four foot high platform next to my machine.  It was very cool to walk next to that thing as it moved boxes around for me.  But that Cat looks like it is straight out of science fiction.  It could come in handy when unwanted guests park in front of our house.

I worked at a salvage yard (not a junk yard! ~owner) in college.

We had a giant Caterpillar mid-swivel forklift (or bucket, sometimes) (could carry three cars at once).  It was great for stoners.  You could back over a car and not even know it. 

"What happened to the new Cadillac??!?!!"

"I uh kno."

We'd drive it into "the pit" and knock down trees.

Try to make it do wheelies. (it, kind of, did)
