Hey Stephen,
I think you are the first to obtain this set (or at least post about it).
Congratulations!
Anyway, can you answer the question that most of us are waiting to have
answered?
Namely, does the 8466 have true 4-wheel drive, independent suspension, and
front-wheel steering? I'm pretty sure from the pictures that we can confirm
the steering and suspension on the front wheels, but is there a drivetrain
and differential linking the engine, front wheels and rear wheels?
Inquiring minds are waiting to place their S@H order...
Regards,
Andy
