Yes, like to be lost in some kind of magical circle -

Could be, but there is always a possibility for last minute update or even change -

...perhaps it could be done with 1 LA and liftarms per container side and one gear rack from Arocs at front and end side of container, something like on smaller LEGO Excavators... who had 2 LA's and not 3 LA's Trailer can be made with smaller tires than on truck, example 62.4 on truck and 49.5 on trailer. In three month we will see final result, but designers are reading this speculations, so perhaps we will give them some idea... -

...or perhaps with aid of some string... (not the rope to hung around - you know what I mean). Seriously @jorgeopesi is great MOCer and I really respect his work, so it is unusual that within his perfection in model building approach he did not make proper stairs hm Personally I'll leave one liftarm with 15 holes and use this part for stairs... but there are also other possibilities... -

@jorgeopesi Mini dumper ended really nice except one thing - it looks like people need skateboards or something like this to climb up the trucks because there are black liftarms instead of stairs (but that is just my opinion)... -

That thought crossed my mind... -
I know about engine scale problem - this was the reason for abandoing few telehandler projects (for now)...

I see some progress, but my verdict will have to wait until you have bigger tires that you wrote about few days ago. The onl thing that is not my cup of tea is engine with axles instead of pistons...

I'm i the phase of reguilding Unimog for smaller battery box, so modifications to the chassis are necessary. Now I got an idea to use XL motor to act as bigger fuel tank on swb chassis. I'll keep my fingers crossed for your next project to be as good (or even better) as Zetros

New 8446 set - yes but with smaller CLAAS tires Futuristic Mack, whell anthem is futuristic. It does not have to fly to be futuristic Or the back? Good question. I saw aerodynamic roof on daily cab for new Anthem, perhaps final version would have a daily cab? -

Well from leaked image that you know how I got it ,it looks like new Mack Anthem is A model, so no worries there -
I have a big list of (possible) mocs, but there is always question of time and availabe LEGO parts; just one example - there is no LEGO tire with tread patter for UGE Unimog (models U4023 and U5023)...so far there is only one proper tractor tire and so on and on... That is why I want to make perfect (as possible) U423 and then to go on next project. Of course there is also a daily job, family, pets (you see one on my avatar, another is like @efferman's avarar...), so usually I have few hours per week for LEGO and then when I put parts back to the box I got some new idea and write it into notebook ar make simple illustraton

Agree, B model could be R series Mack truck -
It would be great model indeed, but first things first; Unimog U423, Self-propelled sprayer, Mack truck, then probably Zetros or Econic Airport cattering truck and then Zetros (if I don't change my mind and make Unimog U5023 offroader)
