Cheap Skates @ Round 2
 
I am so glad to have this truck back into production, but I was SO disappointed to find out that the cheap skates at Round 2 CHEATED us into thinking we were going to get the Floatation front tires that the box SHOWS and that the instructions still call-out, but instead they took the cheap route and stuck in two more skinny Uniroyal's (same as the back tires). SUCKS! I WANTED THOSE FRONT FLOATION TIRES for other truck models! Plus, the quality of all these recent kit releases are going downhill because they are being made in ChIna, and not being well maintained I think. The rear suspension is worse than any old antique kit tooling ever, with flash so bad it's like re-carving leaf springs out of scrap... now normally I enjoy cleaning up flashy parts but this is scary! The entire thing is low quality and yet the price of these kits keeps going up & up & up! FORTY DOLLARS??? That's ridiculous! It only cost them a few bucks to make these, no wonder the ceo of round 2 is driving a Maserati!!! The one thing that is nice is that we get a dump box that can be used on practically ANY other big rig truck, and we get an Autocar again...
