Our final leg of the Canadian Tour found us in Alberta on a visit with Finning Cat! (They're one of the biggest Caterpillar Dealerships in the world with locations in multiple continents)

We were there to visit their Fort McKay facility where they build and rebuild 797 haul trucks. (it takes 12 weeks to reassemble a unit after it has been stripped for a rebuild).

FUN FACT: These trucks are typically run 5000 to 6000 hours per year, and are rebuilt every 12-15 years. #heavyequipment #caterpillar #construction

Equipment: Caterpillar 797B Haul Truck, Caterpillar 797F Haul Truck, Caterpillar 262 Skid Steer Loader, Caterpillar 798AC Mining Truck, Swamp Donkey Dozer
