King vs. Knight Haulers.

[PabloNY]

I just order my MFU 56511, So the next step is to choose the rig. Which one should I get, king or knight?
Knight is 40 dollars more, why? Any differents?
The king cost more only in tamiyausa.com, i wonder why.
Please advise, Thank you!

Go for whichever you like the looks of the most!

Technically they are identical apart from one minor thing. The only difference, to my knowledge is that the King Hauler does not come with a reverse light (which the Knight Hauler does). As the MFU contains a reverse ligh many King Hauler owners by the corresponding Knight Hauler parts as spare parts.

The Knight is a bit longer .. maybe half an inch or so and also a bit higher. But as Mouton said, it really comes down to your preference. The Knight Hauler is based on the Freightliner Coronado and the King Hauler based on a Peterbilt.

I have Knight taillights on my King:

I think it looks better then the original ones.

thanks for your help guys.
I think I know what I want, Knight Hauler with the Tank 56303

Here's my take. while I love my King Hauler, my knight hauler is just a much better looking truck. I think the MFU sounds better in the knight because of the larger speaker enclosure.

Regarding the speaker box, yes, its size (and porting) affects its sound as does the cab it is mounted in. I went for the smaller King Hailer speaker box in my Knight in order to keep the interior. With everything in place the difference is hardly noticeable as the large and roomy interior of the Knight also acts as a speaker box.
