The truck looks nice on its own but I wouldn't know about its resemblance to the real thing... not having seen pics and all. The paint quality looks good, the front end looks good and the mirrors are a nice detail. Oh, and the mapping looks fine too - pixel for pixel alignment, eh?

oui manifique mon picaso! (sp?lol) that taurus looks perfect from here, imo that truck would look great even if it had no lettering on the sides.

stockers? the only time I run stockers is when I'm final testing a track by using their scrape points to determine whether models are positioned correctly or not, the rest of the time I'm swapping customs... in fact I was just doing some test laps with your original carolina crusher (the only truck of yours I could find that does not flood the track) Image

Sharp looking ride there, RF...very nice indeed! Love the detail, and although I can't read what's on the license plates, it's a nice touch to have such detail. Two thumbs up here!

That the same truck that runs here in Australia now? I've got a few (three) colour snaps of it (or one that looks like it) on my site.

This is probably the best one:

Probably not the exact same truck, but it's a good likeness Image

Forgive me if the links don't work - we've got server problems like you wouldn't believe, so it's kinda hit and miss...

You're quite welcome to it mate... glad to hear at least one person found it Image

I only wish I had more pics from when the truck show was on back in '99... only one pic I took during the show came out. They held it at night but it was floodlit as bright as day... cept my 35mm camera didn't think so. After the show, they parked the trucks and allowed everyone to come up close (even climb on them) and talk to the drivers... if I'd known, I woulda saved some photos for then that would have had a chance of coming out... Image
