| | | | | (...) Neat! I like it. Good use of color. A couple of these zipping around a moonbase layout would be cool. (...) How well do these stack? Any chance we will see a ship carrying multiples of these? I hope those horses aren't on the moon, else they (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Thanks kindly Jason. I wanted to give them a look that would fit into a futuristic cityscape, or in our case, lunar/urban scape. Yep...the containers all have grooves and tiles on the top surface to make them mate with the bottoms of other (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | I like this Gil... it's really cool. The engines sticking out in the middle are great, and I really like the attention to detail on this. The way you did the 'sled' on the back is cool. The Cargo Modules are great, too. I'm going to incorparate a (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Glad you like John! It was a fun one to build and challenging to make sure everything fit afterwards. Looking forward to see your cargo mods on the freighter... Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | You've been crankin out the models recently Gil. As for this one, one can never have too many standards for cargo containers. I dig how it looks ugly and square, just like a semi. Now go make a version that can hold a buncha modules at once. Ja know (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Thank you sir! Funny you should mention the multiple carrier. I have had this one built for a couple months and have slowly been assembling cargo containers to hook up to a larger, spacebound transport as you've suggested! Since the containers (...)

| | | | | (...) Wassssup (...) Great job Gil, yet another great MOC that I feel I must respond to. I love the color combo of orange and gray. Keep up the good work! Hasta La Vista, Sean P.S How long did it take you? And is anyone else finding it hard to keep (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Many thanks Sean...it was fun to build a futuristic vehicle while trying to keep it as close to a semi-truck as possible. You know, I really need to work out my lighting issues. As much as I'd LOVE to have that variety of orange elements, it in fact (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | (...) At first glance, I thought "Wow - where did he get all those parts in orange??" Then I thought, "Technic wing backs in orange? They must be red." So I punched my monitor, but they still look orange. Be it red or orange, it's a cool MOC. And (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Hey thanks Jeff...sadly, I still only have a handful of orange elements. Everytime I pass that Island Extreme truck in Wal-Mart, I almost nab it just for the orange slopes...then I see the cheeseball skateboard and 3 wheelers and move on. Perhaps on (...)

Will it be half as good? More like ten times better. I WILL be the first kid on (...) (22 years ago, 27-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | Hey Paul, Sorry for the delayed response...vacation and all :) My orginal plan for this was to create the truck, then move on to cargo movers, atmospheric transports and eventually a space transport capable of carrying multiple containers. However, (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)
