Mules are slightly smaller than their horse parent, and when they grow they share traits of both a donkey (the long ears), and the horse (color, tail, etc.). A Mule in the grass.
For example, a 2014 Ford F-150 is considered a half ton truck but most variants can carry a lot more than 1,000 pounds in the bed. Since these terms are probably not going away any time soon, it's best just to think of them as smaller, mediumest, and more than medium.. (Pause for laughter).
Some haul trucks are as large as houses, for instance, carrying as much as 400 tons of coal at a time. Large shovels can move more than 20 tons of coal in a single bucketâ¦ more than 10 times the coal youâll use in a year. And dragline booms tower more than 200 feet high and can weigh as much as 13 million pounds. Thatâs about the same weight as 150 jetliners.
