Bill, nice work! Many many details.

A black 6-wide truck with refrigerated trailer.

I like this truck a lot, 6 wide....something I havent tried. Works great. I
like the angled lights on the bottom of the trailer.

Thanks.  Although I think they should probably be trans-orange, after
having looked at more real life trailers.

Dump truck with trailer.  The trailer's hopper slides into the truck's for
dumping, just like the real ones do.  Lots of studs-down construction.

I am intrigued by this one. I have never seen a truck like that (or have I,
and just don't know it?) What is the deal? Could you describe the
functionality of this type of truck?

Well, they're very common where I live (San Francisco Bay Area).  The
deal is that you only need one lifting ram this way, and the trailer
is a much simpler affair.  It's for economical reasons.

Garbage truck with tipping container and compactor.  Studs-down
construction on the rear portion.

You got the tipping function & compactor in. Very nice. Studs down...another
thing to add to my list. :)

Thanks!

Revised version of my earlier hopper truck, with the trailer redesigned and an
extra axle added to the tractor.

One word: Beefy.

Thanks!
