G'day! I created a 6 wide semi truck that has a tilting front hood, simulated engine detailing (I thought I was original using roller skates for the engine block - but LEGO had already beat me to it), interchangeable front axles so you can swap the "wheels holder" part with a custom assembly for simulated steering, and even uses 3D printed (gasp!) hubcaps that I designed and painted/varnished. The whole build is quite solid and child play friendly! It uses 196 parts - or 198 parts with the simulated steering assembly - assuming you include the 3D printed hubcaps (otherwise it'd be 194 and 196 parts, respectively). You can watch the video that showcases the build history and other things, too:

Some photos from my Flickr page for those who don't want to watch the video:

No worries @Daiman! Glad you like the frog hood ornament (I'm really glad that I managed to add it after nearly abandoning it through the iterative design process)! It felt only fitting for a LEGO build. :wink:
