Tigdad this is fantastic! My mother is a retired electrician so we had those ladders all over the damn place when I was a kid. She drove a van though not a truck, but I love this! Must've been some hard work and taken a lot of time! Thanks!

This is amazing! I love the amount of detail you put into the truck, particularly the ladders and the rust stain on the back. Very realistic - in fact, it looks like my neighbor's truck. Thanks for sharing your wonderful creation!

Hehe Simrolet, that's so cute!

LoL , you dont know how hard I tried to add some tie downs ...Actually that was one of the main reasons this truck wasnt uploaded a month ago ...I wanted it to be as real as possible BUT I had to settle on NOT tying the ladders and picks down Oh Well !


Thank You everyone else for all your comments !!!! I can't believe this has been commented on so much already !!!!!

Great work. The detail is amazing, and it looks just like my dad's truck...haha...The only thing I don't like it the scaffolding, not that is looks bad, I just think you went a little over board with how much of it there is. If the longest one was taken away it would have looked better. Still fantastic job...
