Re: How NOT to wash your car
Actually the nominal bucket capacity being between 38 and 43 m3, it could be up to slightly over 43 metric tons

Re: How NOT to wash your car
Sorry i got the 2 mixed up, but do a search, the buckets go up to 43m3, and with the weight of water being slightly over 1kg/ltr, it wuld add up to slightly over 43 tonnes

Re: How NOT to wash your car
I don't need to do a search, they have a datasheet for it on their own website clearly stating the bucket capacity as 38 to 42 cubic meters. 
There's also several reasons why, in reality, the water won't weigh more than 1000kg/m3, but that's incredibly dull.
