That is a deal, you get the flats for $16.50 each and the cars $5.57 each
That is a lot of Santa Fe pick-ups.

Menards does it again! Each new offering is as good or even better than the one before! I'm assuming the trucks are 1:48? Mark are we saving the buildings for a building blitz at Christmas time? I can only hope!
I got the email also. I was thinking of canceling the emails but then I'd read about it here on the form so I guess I'm stuck with these offers. 😀
Gotta love the pickup truck with Santa Fe Warbonnet paint scheme! I will be ordering one flat car just to get the truck.
Happy railroading,
Don

The ambulance alone is selling for $13.95 at reputable dealers like Diecast Direct, so it is easy to see that this is an excellent deal! SKU# 279-3106
This collection includes:

• Three Flatbed Trucks - Red, Blue & Menards Green
We are also proud to introduce this beautiful Santa Fe Maintenance Truck on Flatcar!
This O gauge resin flatcar features realistic details including a chassis with premium metal trucks and couplers. Loaded on the Santa Fe flatcar rides a O scale die-cast F150 Santa Fe Maintenance Department truck. This F150 truck is painted Red and Silver with Yellow accents and has the Santa Fe logo on front and back. This die-cast truck also has free-wheeling action.
Thank you,

Guessing that the Santa Fe guys will jump all over that pick-up.

The thing that has always bother me about cars and truck on my layout is the lack of people driving them. I have opened some up and added drivers, but will there ever come a time when they come that way. These are great offerings, especially like the F350s...just wish someone was driving...there are just so many parked cars on can have!
I order the f350 set, I have the Menards store and garden center buildings and these will look great parked in front.
It's a shame there fords! Nice deal though
Bossman284 if you drill out just the rivet head take the vehicle apart and put your person / people in the vehicle put it back together. Drill out the rivet area with A 1/64 drill bit and tap the hole, put in A screw and washer to hold the vehicle back together. I know it is A PITA but you got to do what you got to do to make things look right / good. If I can do it I am sure you can do it if you want to bad enough. Choo Choo Kenny
OK...got a couple of emails about brand comments. Lets not turn this into a shootout about automotive brands....
Thanks,

Canceling your emails Spence?!
Do you know how many people will be out of work at Menards if you did that?! 
Great post Chris! Spence cancels his e-mail and I have images of Mark the Menard's guy taking turns eating at our houses and sleeping in the spare rooms! The good part of the image is his paying board with Menards train stuff!!
I really wonder about assuming that these are 1:43 or 1:48.
Recently, I ordered some nifty Menards tractor-trailers that were in the supposed O-Gauge Train Stuff area of their website---well, they were 1:64 (S gauge) !!!
Can anyone verify that these new trucks are 1:48 or 1:43?
Thanks
Fords coming from China, oh my, the Donalds is not going to be happy about that.
Better buy them up now!
I like the Santa fe truck but just one will do.
car set arrived today. Does anyone have any suggestions how to make license plates with my printer? Thanks
