Response from LEGOBy Emily, Customer Service, January 4, 2019
Thanks for your review! This set wasn't created with LEGO® Power Functions in mind, so there's no "official" way to add motors. That doesn't mean you can't motorize your set, just that it would take some creativity and customization. Happy building!

Amazing

I am a big fan of Lego creator expert and Lego technic. This truck is one of the bests sets of Lego Technic for me. After 15 hours of construction (I spent 15 hours because I like to make the constructions in slow mode to understand how one part of the set affect the other) I have to say that this truck is a good investment to anyone that like Legos. Warning: Like every set of Lego Technic your fingers will be sore after some hours of construction.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The set was fun to build and when finished the truck is very big and has a great sense of scale and detail to it.

Fantastic heavy machinery

Absolute fantastic building experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and watching this amazing mechanism come together. My thumbs are sore from all the little parts but it was worth it seeing what came together. It was really interesting seeing the amount of detail going into this truck, the little engine is definitely my favourite part! I would recommend this to any heavy machinery lover. Just make sure you have the space for this at it is long, but a marvel to see.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great build!

Bought this for my birthday so my 3 year old son and I could build it together. He lost interest after a few minutes.
The build itself was great, very detailed, easy to follow instructions.
I've built both versions of the kit and it's been a ton of fun. Everything works well and looks great!

Disappointing
on December 1, 2018
Posted by: Badger740671
I first learned of this set a long while before it was released and I was very excited. Lego has made so many excellent trucks in the past - look at the 1990s with the model team series - amazing sets, and in recent years, the Mercedes Arocs is a stunning example of design, detail and playablity.
I first saw the Mack and was instantly disappointed. The tractor unit is stylish but clumsy - it doesn't seem to fit scale-wise. The trailer is an after thought and the mechanism is ugly and unrealistic.
I cannot help but think that a lot of the recent sets have been rushed out in an attempt to sell and the result is not great looking sets. The recent addition of the red city crane is a relief but there isn't a lot else in the last 2 years I think does justice to the Lego brand (Bugatti excluded).
Apologies for the negativity - I am a HUGE fan but just want perfection that I know Lego is capable of.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
