The UGM-11 Truck represents a new generation of UGEARS mechanical models with greater sophistication and more features. This model runs, shifts, steers, and accelerates just like a real truck. First ‘fuel up’ by turning the lever on top of the cab. Then ‘start’ the engine with the shifter in ‘idle’ and see four pistons moving realistically under the folding hood. Open the cabin door to find a fully functioning steering wheel and even a working gas pedal. Ready for a ride? Shift the transmission into ‘forward’ or ‘reverse’ and watch your truck head back to the fields for another load of hay.
The UGM-11 Truck is what we call 100% “Rubberpunk,” meaning a perfect blend of clockwork and steampunk worlds. We deliberately designed this model to have a raw, open look so even the casual observer could appreciate the marvels going on inside. This kit may take some time to build, but the rewards are absolutely worth it for those who love mechanics.
My first build. Well designed and executed. A lot of fun to put together. A great gift for anyone. Follow the wax lubing and sanding directions, as it will affect how well it operates. Watch removing smaller pieces from frames as they can easily break. (I broke 2 smaller pieces and repaired with ca type glue).

My first purchase/build and I love it. Very precisely cut each pieces and instructions are highly detailed cant go wrong with it. Take time to build, do not rush and lubricate parts with candle wax.
Planning to buy the Heavy Boy Truck

Challenging but rewarding build!
I spent over a week on this one. About 2 hours a day. I broke very few pieces, about 3. Overall, a somewhat challenging build at times, requiring patience and a keen eye but you are rewarding with a masterpiece!

I am amazed at the precision of the pieces. I had a great time assembling. I will be ordering some of the accessories to go on the truck.
