    Dude, it's Lego. And $200 today is like the $50 I spent 25 years ago on an HO scale AFX race track and 2 race cars.
    Did I mention it's Lego...

    It's not about the truck and it is not about the distance traveled. Get out there with whatever you have, meet people and see things. Push the envelope of your comfort zone and live.

    I know what my 8yr old son wants for Christmas. That should keep him busy for a least a day.

    Now that one is fun to build.

    This thing has a PTO on the front and back that you can switch between along with a air pump to run the grab arm. It also has portol axels and the cab tilts forward and will lock in place.

    The directions are good but kinda sketchy in parts.

    this is the finished truck.






    this is the parts that I have extra.

    Well done Goose!

    I built mine a week or two ago, it was a fun way to spend an hour or two each night...fwiw, I had pretty much the same leftover pieces so you probably built it perfectly.

    I just wish they'd sell a small set of pieces to build the snow plow in addition to the scorpion arm in the rear.
