Features:

• Boom can be raised and extended.
• 'Plier' mechanism to grab the container.
• Movable cabin (spring-locked); the cabin also has all the goodies: openable doors with handle & stopper, mirrors, blue seat.
• Rear HOG steering
• 4-cylinder motor driven by front wheels.
• Pseudo-differential using linear clutches, in order to weakly couple the front wheels; this allows combining torque to drive the fake motor, while still preventing one side from blocking the other.
• Container has openable doors with handle & stopper.

This alternate model uses over 90% of the parts. Note that it's not for beginners.

The idea of a movable cabin comes from MOC-63471.

A lot of time went into making the instructions.
