Thanks for the feedback Maggie. Yes, those are shoe laces... carefully
folded and tied. They, and the reeled hoses, are the only non-LEGO parts I
used.
The only real downer of making this truck is that I realize that I don't
have enough light grey and other special pieces to make another similar
sized truck while leaving this one intact. :)
