Since there has been some discussion of 6 stud wide vehciles lately, I though
I would take a look through the recent catalogs and see which sets came with
wide vehicles.
Here is what I found (excluding train sets)
#6453 Comlink Cruiser (Space Port)
#6459 Fuel Truck (Space port) **This one actually looks good**
#6329 Truck Stop Cafe
#6432 Speedway Transport
#6434 Roadside Repair
#6464 Super Rescue Complex
#2148 Yellow Truck Cab (Imagination Celebration)
#3442 Red Truck Cab (Legoland California)
I'm sure I missed some recent, but not current models. When did TLG start
making 6 wide vehicles?

| Going by the pictures on Pause, these sets only have 4-wide windscreens, not six: 6329 Truck Stop Cafe, 6432 Speedway Transport, 6434 Roadside Repair, 6464 Super Resuce Complex, 2148 is hard to tell but looks more like a 4-wide, 3442 is a 4-wide. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

| There is also a class of truck cabs that are 5 studs wide. The 1/2 stud granularity gives a less course model. The Indy Transport 6335 is an example. I've used this technique a lot on trains as well. SteveB www.PNLTC.org (...) (25 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
