“Even though I am not overly impressed with the Trailer Unit, I would still highly recomend this set. As the Tractor Unit is excellent, and you are left with the challenge of making the Trailer better!”

“This is just a classic product. It's a very interesting build, the model is incredibly durable, the minifigure has a nice uniform and, best of all, it is branded with City's own decal 'Octan' - the fictional energy company. Not forgetting the lovely details and attention to... More real life features (even as far as the chocks to stop the tank-trailer moving), it should make a perfect addition to anyone's collection.”

About City Traffic

Traffic is the everyday side of LEGO City, the cars, trucks and service vehicles of ordinary city life, and it started in 2007 with working vehicles such as a cement mixer, a recycling truck and a heavy hauler. Garbage trucks, tow trucks, car transporters and campers come back every few years, and food trucks have become a habit, from pizza vans to an ice-cream truck. The road itself changed in 2021, when 60304 Road Plates brought in snap-together road plates that took over from the printed road baseplates LEGO had made for decades. LEGO's own delivery vans and trucks have also turned up as sets, in the company's red and yellow colours.

Traffic was introduced in 2007 and currently consists of 103 sets. As of today, 7642 Garage is the most valuable Traffic set with an estimated new/sealed value of $364.
Summary
City Traffic Tank Truck set 3180 was released on May 30, 2010, retailing for $20, it has since been retired. New, unopened sets are valued at $133, used ones can be found for $40.
