My people make some very cool stuff, but too spendy. I love the additional implimnets you can buy for the farm equipment. I love Eurpoean tractor trailers and those are some of the coolest. Funny that their devlivery trucks are DSL, here in the States they'd be FedEx or UPS.
The Jeep Wrangler towing a Cat Skidsteer is a bit much though. A few years ago U-Haul would no longer allow you to tow a mid size or larger trailer with a Wrangler because of the roll-over and ustability potential. I think a Skidsteer would cause a few probelms for a Wrangler.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

The Germans obviously don't care about highway safety...they created the Autobahn

I might have seen some of these in Thailand. They do have a lot more choices for 1/15, 1/18, 1/20, and 1/24 scale vehicles of all types. There was some like these at TRU there. Not sure who makes them. 1/18 construction vehicles remote controlled too.
DHL is popular in Thailand also. Large huge trucks there. When I get legal papers sent to me, they arrive in DHL.

They also created the safest car ... Mercedes.
DHL is the German equivalent of FedEx. They used to ship in the U.S. a lot. Unfortunately they had to cut back to international only.
I've seen Bruder vehicles at TJ Maxx/Marshalls.

They look great - it's a shame the doors never open.
Be seeing you
