Comments.Text: Slightly tongue in cheek, so not an answer, but the "LEGO set <that> has the most pieces and involves building a dump truck" must be [42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42055-1), even though the dump truck accounts for only a small fraction of the almost 4000 parts.

  I'm trying to recall a bricks set I used more than a decade ago which I remember needing an inordinate amount of pieces to build a dump truck or similar piece of construction equipment. I haven't been able to find such a set on my own so hopefully I can get some help here. Frankly, I'm not sure if it's even a LEGO set or different brand.
  
  While don't remember much about it, it's still important to create a post that has a definitive answer so I'll settle for identifying which LEGO set has the most pieces and involves building a dump truck.

  There's a few candidates.
  
  At minifig scale we've got [4202-1 "Mining Truck"](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=4202-1) modeled after a [haul truck](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haul_truck), with 264 parts:
  
  [![Set 4202-1](https://i.sstatic.net/Po0EB.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/Po0EB.png)
  
  On the Technic side, there's [42114-1 "6x6 Volvo Articulated Trailer"](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42114-1) with 2193 parts (as pointed out by @MatthewJensen):
  
  [![Set 42114-1](https://i.sstatic.net/r1ZIP.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/r1ZIP.png)
  
  But if your criteria is "*a set which involves a dump truck*", then the answer (for minifig scale) is probably [60188-1 "Mining Experts Site"](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=60188-1) with 857 parts, albeit with a rather simplistic truck...
  
  [![Set 60188-1](https://i.sstatic.net/ARIQa.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/ARIQa.png)
  
  Or, as user @SanderDeDycker points out, technic [set 42055-1 "Bucket Wheel Excavator"](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42055-1) with 3929 parts and a relatively tiny dumper:
  
  [![Set 42055](https://i.sstatic.net/i6PL5.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/i6PL5.png)
  
  Looking at the [list of construction sets ordered by descending number of parts](https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?pg=1&catString=67.518.596&catType=S&v=1) did help in choosing these.
