Description
The Baja Hauler is a Dakar-styled truck. It has an opening tailgate.
For the 2018 lineup, the Kmart exclusive model is in a different series, City Works while in the mainline, it is categorized as HW Metro. It was originally from the HW Hot Trucks series.
In 2019, the tooling was changed such that the tailgate can no longer be opened. Instead, the top of the container is left open.
