I built one of these last month[march 2020] for my grandson, age 8, who is starting to be a good model builder, now I am going to have him build this one and see if he has a good a time building it as I did building the first one for him. He loves this truck and really takes care of it. Now I ordered another one for me to build for myself.This is an excellent kit for someone with limited building experience. he and I started building model airplanes in January and are now into 1/25 simi trucks. I had not built a plastic model in 42 years except r/c airplanes I still fly. this kit put the fun back in a hobby we both enjoy. now, the only kicker is getting the tires to fit the wheels, they will work, but it's a job. Revell needs to work on this[the tires] other than this, I didn't have any other problems in construction of this truck,it;s nice when done. it's a five star kit with 4 star tires. Read full review

It's a good model in regards to parts fit. However, the design of the parts makes it almost impossible to build in any other version besides what's on the box. For example, the cab and sleeper floor are molded into the frame. And the sleeper is molded into the cab. I was hoping to delete the sleeper and use the truck as a day cab tanker. But, unlike AMT kits, this id not a realistic option. It's still a good kit if you want a 1980s Interstate cruiser, though.

I have built other models made by Revell. The quality of the pieces are precisely made and clean. I prefer this brand over any of the others. I wished they made equipment too, like Case backhoe/landscape loaders, Dozers etc also. I have a dozer and lowboy by another and I hope I don’t the experience with as I did with a truck by the same company.

Product was just what I thought it was it was extra parts I needed to complete a model that I was put together from other parts

Great model for the price. I'm an ex- cross country driver, along with being an avid model builder and this one brings back so many wonderful memories of being out on the road along with being a great model to build. Highly recommend to buy and build this model you will love the challenge.
