This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Hauling at mines.

There are pictures of large pickup trucks (think Ford F250/F350) flattened like a pancake ~~fire~~ from trying to pass one of these without alerting the driver they're there. When you're on a mine, these things always have the right of way.
