Camel crossing ahead. One hump means we’re in dromedary country, specifically a dustry stretch of desert highway en route to Pakistan. Dessis Bosman has built a LEGO truck that’s up for this rigorous road — a Scania LB141 in the livery of Dutch hauler Rynart. Bult at 1:13 scale, the truck is a beast. And at ~160 studs long, it also qualifies as a SHIP. Around 1000 2×4 tiles went into the tarpaulin alone.

Dennis had previously built a Scania LB141 in the yellow livery of British shipper Astran, and used the chasis as hte foundation for this new build. The truck takes advantage of an incrased range of parts in dark azure to match the Rynart livery.

Pulled over for a roadside assist by a Landrover Defender, we can get a better look at the fifth wheel coupling and some of the improvements Dennis made to the new model like a spare wheel, winch and air tanks.

The cab includes a fully detailed interior and with a sleeper. Up top is a roof rack with air conditioning unit to make the long haul desert trips bearable. A pair of minifigures turned Michelin Man hold up the livery sign.

Dennis redesigned the engine for his latest truck, using more accurate turquoise for this iteration of the 141. Much of the design remains the same as the one Dennis built for this Skania LK141 six years ago.

Every new truck or heavy equipment model from Dennis is a LEGO engineering wonder. If you don’t mind a little engine grease, take drive through our Dennis Bosman archive for more amazing vehicles.
