John....
I think the traction tire feature is mostly/only on the hi-rail wheels and not
on the scale wheels. If I am correct, the offering of that feature to the
AF-compatible crowd should not affect your opinions of AM's scale offerings.
It sure would be nice if you would actually see, hold, feel, touch and operate
a model before expressing comments and opinions and feelings and viewings about
it. Too much hearsay and unsubstantiated emotion is not good. Personal
observations and facts are valued.
