This is a cool model. But it looks more like an earth mover than a
conventional over the road vehicle. Also, I'm unclear where the hook
goes. Have you tried giving it an earthmover (Articulated truck or
scraper) back end?

I went to the Cat site to find one but came up short. However there are
some other interesting construction pics there...

I especially enjoy minifig scale models that make intelligent use of
Technic parts. I always try to paint with all the "colors" the Lego
palette provides. (or speak with all the "words the Lego language
provides, if you prefer).

Thanks Fredrik!
