“Originally debuting in 2010, the 3179 Lego City repair truck was an immediate favorite and has been a firm staple in many collectors cities and collections ever since. It's based off of a cherry picker design and has 1 truck and a small lamp post side build. The truck itself... More is a standard design and does little to stand out with the exception of it's bright color to stand out, and that's the beauty of it. The chassis is basic and has an inverted slope based structure with a flatbed base.”
