The 250-ton truck's new C175-16 diesel engine makes 2,650 hp. The Tier-2 diesel has a 20 percent torque rise. Top speed has been boosted to 37 miles per hour from the 793D’s 34. On 12% grade, the 793F can reach up to 8.5 miles per hour.

Holy cow!! Is that a toppled-over dragline that the dozer is working around? Did it right itself after the dozer moved enough dirt? Don't think I'd want to be too close if that happened!
