YES!!!
The free trucks are great! Look out FedEx and UPS, I picture my 12 free trucks lined up at the loading docks of the OGR Barrett building which has become the SantaFe Package Delivery Service! Just an idea I have!
Since I worked at one time in Oil City, Pennsylvania, when the Quaker State headquarters was still there, I go for the Quaker State car. I already have a nice MTH Quaker State tank car, but this one is a dandy for the price.

Hi Mike,
I’m not familiar with Kadee mounting holes but perhaps one of the guys who have experimented in the past could offer their opinions.

Looks like I'm going to be getting another Menards car. Still would like to see a Simple Green tank car (inside joke here on the forum).

That was my thought too, Jim.
really like that Quaker State one!
I wonder if you buy eight of them, do you get eight trucks? 
Menard's has turned out some great looking tank cars but this is my favorite. My uncle, owned a Quaker State gas Station here in Homer City. My cousin use to run a 1955 Chevy at drag races. He called his car "The Quaker Shaker".
I just ordered one to compliment my MTH single dome Quaker State tanker. The Santa Fe truck will find a home as well.

I thought the same thing!
I'll be ordering on of the Quaker State ones for sure
For the selling price of this 3 dome tank car this is a great deal, car detail very good, ideal for running straight out of the box, kit bashing or for repainting, for those of us who want repaint this car type for prototypical use check out Protocraft.com, Norm has decals for this 3 dome tank car, I purchased the DuPont Chemical Corp. decal set and two sets of decals for DeSoto Chemical Coating,Inc. no issue with applying these decals and quality very good.
Just a note. Check your shipping cost as you add all the free trucks at check out. You may not want so many free trucks.
Not always the case. Completely depends on how far away you are for the shipping costs.
Sometimes it is best to just take a few of the trucks.
I will say the trucks are VERY nice additions and certainly can be modified to your particular taste.
I have 8 or 10 of them laying around here from ordering military cars. Seems like they add up fast.

Still having fun.

I think these are made from Williams molds. Williams made three dome tank cars in recent years that are copies on postwar Lionel tank cars.

It's been already well established that Golden Wheel makes these cars for Menards. Bachmann owns the Williams tooling as is not making these cars.
