So I guess my 56 stud long SWAT truck wouldn't fit in a city, huh?  ;-)

Hmm, maybe I can rip it apart and turn it into a double-trailer setup.  But it
looks so much cooler as a giant trailer.

Maybe I'll just build a separate dual-trailer, and see if I like it before
tearing mine apart...

...or just say it is only used in rural areas ;-)

I think this one is the most detailed, especially in the trailer
section.  This would make a good mobile television crew truck too (I
dislike Lego's over-emphasis on police).

Trouble is that these big trucks have trouble negotiating the tight curves
of LegoLand streets.  The car carrier is the worst taking up the entire
width of the road when turning.

(...) Maybe in a more realistic scale city :) But even real trucks have trouble manuevering downtown... My truck is about 68 studs long (including the tractor and trailer) and 8 studs wide, so it covers the street and the side walk when driving (...) (26 years ago, 19-Mar-99, to lugnet.general)
