Semi's are great trucks. I'm surprised I still have mine. ;) (I'm known for buying, building, and selling/trading within a months time)

I've always been into the semi thing being thats what i grew up around and even used to ride around in during jobs that family members worked and it's also been in a few parts of my family as well as that was their work for a living. i've been into the semi and construction thing since i was younger, from having just about every tonka to little tykes in the back of our house all the way to having tamiya's and to now having Wedico's. the High Lift will be a nice scale pick up as the bruiser was, even though it will of course not replace the bruiser, it's still a nice scale piece and if you're into anything scale or also like the scale side of R/C then you won't regret getting a rig and you'll always be able to save more funds when the truck does come out.

Hopefully it won't come out for at least another mounth by then I would have sold my portable DvR an archos AV700 which should generate me an exstra $450 bucks which should be all I need to buy a Highlift ! :)

I hate delayed release dates
I was disgusted by Big T's pushback so I spent the money for I was going to use to buy 3 of them to get 3 other r/cs. Sorry, Tamiya, you snooze, you lose. Dammit....Now I'll jhave to pull overtime :banghead Hopefully this kit will still be around come Christmans.

well the conventional rigs seem more popular, and I like that style better but maybe the globe liner to be different.

I personally prefer, and want to get a King Hauler within the next year. It's more of a Kenworth than the others. I want to paint one up like the 1973 in Smokey & The Bandit. As far as Globe Liner or Knight Hauler, I'd take the Knight Hauler.

Yeah the Globeliner is a nice looking truck. I got the knight but afterwards I wished I got the globe. Too late now though, too much money is into it just to sell it for less. :)

I love the Globeliner ... My Father drove a truck for 40+ years since he was 14 in Argentina :) And now I am one as well :roll ...He had one very similar to the one I did.. I have always loved the Globeliner just because it looked very different compared to the conventional rig.... I am hoping my Next rig to be a knighthauler. Not a real fan of the aeromax :ack
