“Set 8849 was released in 1986 as the third large tractor in only 10 years. It features rack and pinion steering on a pendular axle, a PTO, and lifting rear implements including a sprayer. Both studded building techniques and pinned construction are used throughout. This... More tractor is slightly smaller than the last and no longer has a reciprocating engine or a differential.”

“The Power Truck from the Lego Technic series was one of my favourite toys when I was a kid. It was due to the great appearance, many functions and a high degree of flexibility with regard to possible attachments and conversions. The only drawback is that the steering wheel... More is located directly under the roof of the driver's cab, so the roof must be removed in order to steer the Power Truck correctly. Therefore, it is not quite enough for the maximum score.”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Power Truck set 8848 was released in August 1981, retailing for $30, but has since been retired. New, unopened Power Truck sets are valued at $574, while used sets can be found for $64.
