I think once they are on the market and a few of forum suppliers start building parts for this new truck it will become a popular truck.. Steve can make wheels for them Stepside makes a new visor for them, longer wheel base kits and some better paint jobs will really help

Just my 2 cents.....

My first choice will still be a King hauler, That freight shaker won't work on my off road yard, I prefer vocational trucks!
Cheer's, Neil.

Paul, this quote sums up this truck to a T!! Lmao I'll second that!

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)
 

I agree, at least they are making some sort of effort, unfortunately it's not everyone's taste but I see a lot of potential, I can pull potential pretty much out of anything... It's all in the eye of the beholder and what you do with it.... I'm sure it will be a challenge but a lot can be done with this truck.....

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)

I think that at least they have brought a truck out that is non European, may not be what everyone wants...
but why are we having a discussion about licensing etc why can't they build a kit that is close and doesn't encroach on licensing issues. And is simple enough to modify ????? I guess similar to the King Hauler Globeliner but much closer to an actual truck model.
Just a thought anyway

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)
 

At least it's another option... Guy's will buy these and modify them just the same as any of the other kit trucks. In the end they will look great!

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)
 

I saw on one os the web sights that the model is 193mm wide. Do the math and it is 14.5 scale.

Re: 56340 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution (Tractor Truck)
 

Well im glad that there is a new truck out, but why a freightliner???????? there just... ,
dads currently driving a coronado with the set back axle and its absolutely S#!T, everything rattles, if it doesnt rattle it squeaks,if it doesnt squeak then it falls apart, its only three years old and is about to have its third left hand mirror replaced because it falls apart and dangles on the wires and wrecks the door:confused::confused: i know theyve got the same running gear as the western stars that we have in australia, probably worldwide,and thats the only good thing, but i just cant believe them, i mean they look ok but thats all thats good about them, i got to have a drive of it a while backand it was ok, nothing like the kenworths or western stars ive had a steer at in the past:D, thank god my knight hauler doesnt have freightliner badges, just because it looks like one it will never be one:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

well that sums up my thoughts about them anyway, everyones different i spose,
Sorry to all you fruitliner lovers out there, :o:o

Cheers Lucas:lol:
