I received one for Christmas. Haven't built it yet but did look close enough
to confirm that yes, the wheels are the same as the 5571's.
Speaking of trucks, any Model Team fans who haven't seen Dennis Bosman's
Trucks and Construction Machinery page should check it out. It was a
Cool LEGO Site of the Week about a month ago and is definitely worthy of
that distinction. In my dreams I could build stuff half so impressive!
