Simple Quotable Fact: A mine truck uses more fuel in a DAY than you probably use in a YEAR.
Lots of energy used in the production of the trucks and tires as well.
There is probably more steel in two trucks than an offshore oil platform.. And those move once the well is constructed so a single rig will have a trail of producing energy streams.
