Coal hauler ; front end loader ; dump truck ; motor trucks ; The Dart Truck Co. began building highway trucks upon its establishment in 1903 and expanded into the off-highway truck business with its first heavy-duty model in 1937. By the early 1950s, Dart began to phase out its highway truck line in favor of off-highway vehicles, several of which achieved industry firsts. These included a 95-ton capacity, rear-dumping tractor-trailer unit in 1960, the world’s first mechanical-drive truck of regular two-axle configuration to beat the 100-ton barrier in 1966, and the world’s largest tandem-axle mechanical-drive hauler at 85-ton capacity launched in 1980. Dart’s complete truck line included both mechanical and diesel-electric drive units. ( http://www.constructionequipment.com/ironworks/ce04da001.asp )
