I bought a MakerBot Replicator2 3D printer! I am very very happy! Yes the finish is a bit roughness than my provider..but the piece is more resistant for a real life testing.

Can you model a dump truck tire/tyre? Can you print it, or print a door panel of, say, a car as curvy as a Volkswagen Beetle, or a Mini Cooper/Cooper Mini? How feasibe is it to print, say, a 4-foot tall scale model of a skyscraper, minding, of course, that lots of details will be lost at that scale?
