Last one for today folks....I have been meaning to do a bit more on the German specialist heavy truck maker TITAN and have finally got the right link to their website so you can see what they do for yourself. http://www.titan-sf.de/indexe.html However, as a taster, here are a couple of vehciles they've built including (at the top) this 6x6 special tractor for Siberia with full winter/cold-weather package on it. Under the hood is a Cummins 525 with an Allison box behind it. For those that don't already know it, TITAN also builds special-types 8x8,and 6x6 STGO Actros tractors for Mercedes which markets them in Europe as Mercedes/Titan.

Another Cummins-powered 6x6 although this one has some 600hp under the hood which rather suggests it's not an N14 but perhaps something bigger. I seem to recall chatting to the man that runs TITAN some years ago that they fitted the 19-litre QSK in some of their trucks...This one went to the United Arab Emirates...anyway for a REAL oddball (and a pie opportunity)  click through here

Now what do you suppose this might be used for...? Click on the TITAN website top find out!

That truck you have left us to identify is a Pallet transporter for brown coal strip mining
