On the designated course for scales 1:8 and 1:16 covering an area of 600 square metres the truck models are in their element. For these miniature worlds, created with great attention to detail, over 160 m³ of soil are applied and modelled, landscapes formed with hundreds of plants and seedbeds, roads and crossroads laid out and various buildings and construction sites built. As every year, dedicated clubs started to plan the new true-to-scale layout weeks before the event. And when preparations are completed, the "living landscapes" can at last be brought to life: tractors work on fields, a building site is a bustle of activity and numerous trucks can be seen loading and unloading in true-to-life detail. The best models will be presented by a moderator, giving interesting insight into the functions of the models. For the first time in Friedrichshafen: the popular Truck Trial, in which offroad-worthy vehicles battle their way over hill and dale and rough terrain.
