Is this the man 5t?

[egdinger]

This (http://www.discounttrainsonline.com/Roco-Military-German-MAN-452462-Cargo-Carrier/item625-505.html) , is that the man 5t that is a good beginers truck, with rubber tires and all?

First of all, welcome to the boards! But yes that is the 3-axle MAN 5-ton. It has rubber tires and is a perfect body for beginners.

Thank you. I have always thought these were neat, and seeing as I have a cad class coming up, I figured I could design one and then make it, seeing as I have to build something. Where would I get gears for these, thats the only thing I can't figure out. By the way I live in usa.

I am done helping people:mad: J/K:D Well that's the kind of answer you get when I have one minute before school.

nothing to be upset about;) you are correct in that it is a 3 axel man...and i believe the only difference between the two models is the number of axels, the frame and cosmetic details that get cut off anyway.
