Careful now, I started playing with legos well before 93, haha. Guess that makes me old. | |

| I've been doing Legos for ten years so that would mean I was five almost six years old when I started. | |

| I think I got my first box of lego when I was like 5-6. I think it was given to me by a family friend and that's what started my love for lego. 20 years later and im still playing with them and i still buy parts when i need them  . | |

 Cornish hows this? That looks sweet, You should put a B-Double trailer on it though, you might as well give your truck a work out on the hills? Im putting a AAB trailer set on my truck  | |

If you send me the LDD file, Ill have a look. I don't mind doing it if you want. PM me and ill send you my email address. That said, those dollies are cool though. - @crafsmankiller wrote:

Id start with a 5 speed first so you get a better understanding of how to build them and then build a 10 speed. You could just build a 5 speed and then have a split range box in front to give you a 10 speed, like semi's have. A split range is just a 2 speed gearbox before the main 5 speed box. If you have a paypal or access to paypal, you can buy any lego part you want on Bricklink.com , that's where i buy all of my lego. | |
