I just had an amusing discussion with someone who was 100% convinced that in 10 years all vehicles will be electric and diesel will disappear in 10 years.

He suggested windfarms, solar farms and generators (diesel powered generators I assume??)

This is a truck with 4 trailers known as a roadtrain. It delivers fuel to mine sites and small towns. It hauls 158,000 litres of diesel fuel or 41,740 gallons if you are in a country with medieval measurements. It weighs in at 186.5 tonnes and is 60 metres long (411,162 lbs ~ 197 ft).
