COME ALONG AND SEE US AT.. .BAUMA MUNICH, GERMANY 15th – 21st APRIL 2013

It’s a dog’s life!This dog has affectionately been named Terex by the drivers of the Terex® TR100s currently working in a coal mine in Belovo, Siberian Russia.Whenever the TR100s depart the parking bay, heading down into the mine, Terex chases after them to bid them farewell. Ignoring all the other trucks on site, Terex loves the white TR100s and their drivers.

This is why he was christened ‘Terex’.
