UGears Heavy Boy Truck VM-03 70056

NO EXTRA ITEMS REQUIRED: One of the great parts about the UGEARS models is that, although they are not easy to assemble due to the complex mechanism and big number of pieces, there is absolutely no extra element required such as glue, screwdrivers or even electricity. Moreover, the plywood is eco-friendly and resistant, with no risk of it breaking.... moreCOMPLEX MECHANISM: In order to avoid using electricity and thus ruining the magic of this model, we have created a complex mechanism based on a rubber band engine that runs the entire truck for up to 5 meters in a single winding. SURPRISING DETAILS: Because we know that our clients know the value that lies in the details of any miniature model, we have not only inscribed the truck with the brand’s name, but we have even added a resting cabin for the driver, making sure to copy the exact model of a real-life truck. FOR YOUR BEST FRIEND: We know that keeping the truck model to yourself is tempting, but if you have a friend that is passionate about building miniature projects or if you are searching for a great gift for your boss or business partners, the UGEARS DIY truck model is a unique and interesting item that will make a good impression on anyone. HAVE FUN: No matter how many details and premium quality materials we have used in creating this collectible item, we didn’t forget about its ultimate purpose: entertaining you. Building the truck is fun and the award of seeing it work is even greater, but try to also remember that it is a wonderful piece of home decor that everybody will notice and admire.

Ugears wonders if you have ever imagined yourself behind the wheel of a large powerful truck, cruising down the highway, alone in your thoughts, watching the landscape pass by. There has always been a certain romance or mystique to the long-haul trucker, the last of the cowboys. With a powerful team of horses under the hood, the trucker is the bigg... moreest guy (or gal) on the road, and sometimes the loneliest. But he´s got the freedom of the open road, ever-changing office views, and a workplace as big as the country itself. Whether you´re an independent owner operator or a dedicated company man, time on the road clears your head and makes you cherish time at home with your family even more. It´s early morning: the mist crawling along the highway fills the air with a sleepy chill. Grab a strong coffee at the truckstop, put on your favorite music, and let your imagination take you on a long-haul journey in the Ugears Heavy Boy Truck VM-03.The prototype of a modern heavy truck was invented by the American Alexander Winton in 1898. Winton produced cars in a small factory located in Cleveland, and because he needed to get them to customers in different parts of the United States without putting mileage on the cars´ odometers, he developed the concept of a heavy truck that could transport large-scale cargoes using a trailer. But the widespread use of trailer trucks really started with the development of asphalt roads in the 1920s, and took off with the formation of the U.S. Interstate Highway System in 1956. Today truckers, the unsung heroes of the highway, transport nearly three-fourths of all freight in the U.S. Without trucks, and the men and women behind the wheel, the economies of every nation on earth would grind to a halt.Robust and powerful, the Ugears long-hauler has a six-cylinder R6 engine driven by a rubber band motor. This DIY model truck can go for about 5 meters on a single winding. The wooden model truck´s transmission system has three modes: forward, back and idle. The front wheels are sprung with shock absorbers, and can turn to set the 3D puzzle truck´s direction. The detailed design includes all iconic elements of a classic American conventional cab semi-tractor truck: ten wheels (two up front on the steering axle, and four sets of paired wheels on the drive axles), a functional fifth wheel trailer coupling, a giant grille, air cleaners, two big exhaust pipes running up the side of the cab, roof fairing, air horns, external fuel tanks, two sets of mirrors, and a small step ladder mounted under the cabin door for convenient access.But this is a Ugears truck, and we are known for going the extra mile by including delightful additional details and touches of whimsy in our wooden mechanical 3D puzzles. Inside the cab you´ll find a shovel and a gas can, and for the tired driver, the Heavy Boy offers a cozy sleeping berth with a TV set for watching Convoy, Smokey and the Bandit, Every Which Way But Loose, and the chase scene from
