Is the hook on the back for picking up the really big dates, when your cruising the block?

I wonder if they will come out with a model of that, it looks real interesting? Most likely AA will first, if any. I was looking at the clean lines the cab has, do they also have a trailer for it to?

Kerry,
There is only one kit of it in 1/48 scale in white metal same with the Leyland DROPS we drive . It's a shame really as these have transformed the battlefeild logisitcs we can drop off a load up to 16 tonnes and pick up an empty rack in 2 mins or under BTW They also carry scimitars on the back of them as well.
