it is quite a beast, but visibilty must be horrific with the external visor and the "nose down" stance!

I hope it doesn't have standard seats - you'd slide off!

I have to say the fire-engine in NZ remains my favourite :D

It looks like they got the angle wrong when they welded the cab front to the flatbed back :o Sorry not a fan.

Was that posted on this site too ? Is there a link or pictures. I saw that Tow truck too and have it in our club magazine for comment. Personally I don't like it, original I know, but it just looks weird and you'd wonder if it was safe to drive let alone use.

Not a fan either, wouldn't mind taking it for a test drive though.

Horrid.
Must be undrivable - you'd surely be stooping to see under the top of the windscreen frame all the time to see out while trying to stop yourself sliding off the seat!

I reckon its ugly, my personal opinion. just doesnt look right with the cab leaning forwards. If it was flat then it would be much better!
