A wheel loader includes a vehicle frame, an engine, a supporting mechanism, a diesel articulate filtering device, and a connecting pipe. The engine is mounted on the vehicle frame, and the supporting mechanism is fixed to the vehicle frame. The diesel particulate filtering device is mounted on the supporting mechanism above the engine and has an exhaust gas inlet facing the rear. An exhaust upstream side end part of the connecting pipe is coupled to an exhaust part of the engine, and an exhaust downstream side end part of the connecting pipe is connected to an exhaust gas inlet of the diesel particulate filtering device from the rear. The connecting pipe includes an extending part that is disposed below the diesel particulate filtering device and extends rearward of the diesel particulate filtering device from the exhaust upstream side end part, and a flexible pipe part provided in the extending part.
