I want a white and red C509 and 5 line trailer so bad! I hope a K200 with 5 line trailer comes as well, I'd rather have that then the C509, white and red would be fantastic!

They do not come with a tractor, you buy a Drake K200 or C509 or T909/908 if you do not already have one. Matching liveries of each trailer are available for the truck if you do not already have a truck/tractor/prime mover.
These are already expensive as is, with a trucks they would easily be over $1000 for a complete set with all the addition sections to add to the trailer.
I personally would like to see more pictures/video of how it widens vs the system used on the standard swing wing trailers. Does this widen just the deck and the axles stay where they are like many pictures I've seen of Australian trucks? I hope not. I'm not a fan of that setup. Full widner would seem to suit weight distribution better.

They aren't cheap, true.. but they are a whole lot of trailer compared to the Swingwing rated at over twice the capacity They fully widen.. here's one of Drakes clips showing it in action https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=T8gL4WhYFLc#
