This is a snap together. And skill level is 1
 
I think the kit sucks, because, for one, there is hardly anything to do on it, it's like all already together, molded together. There is nothing to do on the frame except snap the front axle on, and snap the one piece rear suspension/axles on. If i'm going to put together a kit I WANTS PARTS, lots of them I might be different, but I LOVE building up the frames and chassis-it's one of my favorite parts. I like the multiple piece crossmembers and gluing them to the frame rails, wherever I want them, if i want to modify the truck, and have an option of where i want to put the suspension to (makes it easier to shorten or lengthen the frame). I also can't stand it when the sleeper is molded to the cab; like no one would ever want to have a day cab (sleeperless) model. Revell gives NO options on this kit. Tires suck to. Wheels are not to scale and not deep enough to even look real. The entire kit is so easy a 4 year old can build it Needs no glue, at all, I don't understand why they don't advertise it as a Snap-together Even the head lights are molded to the grill and that just snaps into the hood. Mirrors; just one piece, snaps in, done. Clearance lights on the roof, just snaps in, and there's no way to build it without them if one so wishes. Other things that bother me: the mud flaps are like 6 (scale) past where they should be, the battery box mounts (with the entire bottom of the box) are molded into the frame and the same for the fuel tank mounts; makes it almost impossible to create anything other version beside like it is on the box. The fuel tanks are only two pieces and has an ugly seam done the middle on the front and back and that makes it impossible to remove if you want to keep them chrome... just a very very poor design.
