    @@Unbrickme That's true, but the tow truck has more functions, pneumatics, and a better price-per-piece (although it is expected that the Mercedes would cost more because of all the motors and the very expensive battery box). Both sets also introduce a new feature into LEGO TECHNIC (2nd axle lifting for the tow truck, differential locking for the Zetros) but I think the differential locking is more practical and cool. All things considered, the Zetros is good if you have enough money to buy it (and you like capable trial trucks with cool functions), but the tow truck is a great deal for the price if you're looking for a cheaper option or a set with more functionality.

I prefer a Technic set packed with dozens of functions like this one than to have a high priced mediocre one with a bunch of accessories or a crappy B-Model. This way I know all the energy was put into designing the main model.

I've been trying to add one to my Technic Unimog U400 (I bought the U400 from Legoland in Florida), so with the instructions from this set, I can add a third liftable axle to my Unimog U400 in the future.

    Being a truck driver and more so that I just had my truck towed last week I'm very familiar with these trucks IRL. One thing I can tell you is the top boom is not common on most heavy tow trucks. Semitrucks are towed with the low bar and preferably from the rear. They'll lock the steering with the seatbelt and tow the truck. I have seen a few with that top boom in my time but I have only ever seen that used to upright rolled trucks and trailers or pull vehicles out of ditches. I have never seen a truck being towed by that. Just thought I would give a little clarity on the RW operation of those.

    I only don't like the engine too much since it's a bit too simple (wish it was one like the previous large technick tow truck from Lego) and a box with tools would be nice (although understandable as you pointed out due to space used for knobs, handles and pneumatics. But other than that, awesome set. Lots of functions, good looks and decent price.

    I just assembled this but there seems to be an issue in the rear pneumatic cylidner that raises the tow bar - it doesn't go up. There is no mistake in the assembly, it just seems to not generate enough force to lift it (and I don't put anything there, just a dry run). I always have to give it a push with my finger then it immediately works as it supposed to. Any solution to this? Otherwise, fantastic set.
