Looks a lot like the old truck but good. Nice to hear there's a shorter wheelbase that's for sure - we don't all want huge trucks!

What's the score with the model numbers, ie U3000-5000? Is it the higher the number the longer it is? All the engines appear to have the same power unlike the old models where the number roughly worked out at the HP rating

yeah, the previous ones were just generic numbers really, whch made everything a bit confusing really, basically the number denotes load abilities and power, the bigger the number, the bigger the weight and power. thankfully they have gone back in the old direction with the new mogs though. :D ;D

The old numbers were pretty easy to figure out once you had a basic understanding. I wonder why they felt the need to mess with it?
