Nothing like a big Oshkosh truck to get your motor running.

Looks like a perfect "base" for one of their fine Abrams kits.

Who do you think will do a better job with this subject -- Meng or Trumpeter? I own several Meng kits but haven't built any yet. I've built a fair number of Trumpeter kits, so I know what to expect from them. How about price -- whose kit will be cheaper?
