The biggest, boldest 3D wooden model truck can now be yours when you order the Ugears Cargo Truck. This “Advanced” level, spring-powered DIY model truck is best-in-class, with loads of moving parts and exciting, realistic details. Three fully-sprung axles and two differentials—one to the front axle, one to the rear axles—allow your Cargo Truck to conquer any terrain and meet any challenge. Similar to the Mack NO 7 ½ ton 6×6 cargo truck and the Diamond T 4 ton 6×6 used by the U.S. Army and Allies in WWII, the Ugears Cargo Truck is an all-weather, all-terrain, mighty machine.

Standout features of the Ugears Cargo Truck include its large dimensions, full suspension on all axles, twin differentials that send power separately from the spring motor to both the front and paired rear axles, a hood that opens to reveal the engine, functional handles on side doors that open to reveal a beautifully-detailed cab interior, adjustable rear view mirrors, a spare tire stored behind the cab, a lowering tailgate on the truck bed, gorgeous laser-engraved detailing from front to back, and a powerful spring motor with ratchet wind-up key and Start/Stop switch. Your Cargo Truck can travel 2-3 meters on a single winding, and has three fixed positions on the front wheels: straight, left and right, so you choose the direction of travel.

The Cargo Truck DIY model kit contains 550 parts and is rated “Advanced” (for experienced modelers) level, promising 10+ hours of exciting construction time. Everything you need to build this 3D puzzle truck comes included in the box. No glue or special tools are required, and your build is guided by illustrated, step-by-step instructions in 11 languages (English, Ukrainian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean). Be sure to lightly sand and lubricate all moving parts (a piece of sandpaper and wax are included with the kit) for optimal function. Rubber bands around the perimeter of the tires make the wheels extra grippy, and can be easily replaced as needed. Your Cargo Truck can be left in its attractive natural wood state or painted or stained in a color scheme of your choosing.

To operate your Cargo Truck, place the Start/Stop toggle switch (located in front of the windshield) in the “Stop” position. Give 6-7 full turns of the ratchet key located on the underside of the chassis, set the truck down on a flat surface, then press the “Start” button. Watch as your truck powers off on its next job, or turn the truck over and watch the fascinating action of the drivetrain. You and your family will enjoy hours of imaginative play time with this wooden 3D truck model, and it’s sure to be a showpiece on any display shelf.
