MJB1 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 did you know that when magnums were first released 4 & 6 wheeler rigids were not available, as it was purely designed as a concept truck for distance work ,however operators got around this by specifying extra long wheelbased tractor units until the demand was overwhelming that renault finnaly gave in & built a rigid chassis as an option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I'm sure I have seen that about Rich, where does he get about with it? Never been a fan of the Magnums looks to be honest, it should have stayed a concept truck!! That said, they popular enough and I drive a bloody Premium. But I get paid embarrasment money!!!

It's not a model I would buy but that cattle truck is nice, don't think it should go under the knife mate. Maybe just remove the box and have a wagon and drag flat?
