Trying to decide on a truck...
Right now I'm thinking something like a:
- MAN, 5 ton two axle.
Just like everybody else has
- Rosenbauer, Panther FL

- Some type of 4 wheeled Armored Personel Carrier
- Some type of boxed-in 4 or 6 wheeled military anphibian (M2 Alligator), or strange looking truck (M48 Bridge Layer)

Well if it is your first try at a TTT......then I would suggest the MAN 5T. It is up to you...if you realllllllllllyyyyyyyyy want to try something else, then go for it, otherwise stick with the MAN 5T. Either way all of us like to see new work.

I like the looks of the MAN 5-ton, but the only thing against it is that everybody else has done it. So, I'd have to custom paint/decal mine.
The airport firetruck just looks cool, and seem different from anything I've seen anybody else make.

Frizzen, my first attempt will be a MAN 5T...but to justify the shipping costs i bought 3 vehicles, the MAN 5T, the Daimler Truck (similar in size to the MAN 5T but with a dually rear axle...more of a commercial street hauler type vehicle), and i got the ultimate the MAN with 8 wheels and 4 axles.
Ok i know the 8 wheel deal is a hard undertaking, but i have some unusual plans...making it 6 wheeled and removing the second steering axle (i personally like this look).
