You make it sound so ordinary but nothing is ordinary when it comes to
your MOC's - especially not this time as it turned out!
And to answer your qestion, yes, but it's not possible to have too
many Jennifer cranes :)
Someday I'll also build a crane, but I think I'll wait 'til the most
heat is off your new MOC .)

JEBUS!! Okay, so I thought "another Jennifer", it'll be very good and
real looking. BUT this time you have really surpassed yourself! Truly
amazing, congratulations!

Thank God you used non-LEGO elements so you can't enter my monthly
contest because no-one else would dare compete with you :) Ok, so it
would really be cool to have been in the same contest as you - tempted
as might be I still wont change the rules :þ
I see that you use a 8462 Tow Truck hook this time, does this mean
that you've finished the Thesis and opened your treat? *smiles*
*imagines the complexety under the bodywork*
Eight motors and three battery boxes, that's alot of cubic
brick-space. Not much left for gears and support beams I imagine...
Wow, the complexity of the whole thing must be amazing, I can't even
start to grasp the challenges you had to deal with building that
thing...
Not to mention the amount of sets needed to gather all those pieces...

I'm looking forward to seeing the gory gears and reading your text!
Some movies would also fill some of my never-ceasing demand for
Jennifer MOC's.
*goes back to my work in progress that feels some-what not as cool as
it did 42 minutes ago*

| Thanks Tobbe! (...) It did get quite tricky right enough, but I have to say that using some of the newer types of technic pieces really helped here.
