Place your truck suggestions here! Placing them here DOES NOT mean they will be created. It just makes us aware of them.

I was thinking if we could get some more cabover trucks (flat nose)
there is only 3 of the 36 trucks in total that are cabovers 1994 Freightliner FLB 1989 Kenworth K100 1981 Peterbilt 352 There are no new cabovers only one's under $5000 i'm shure there is alot of cabover fans on this game |

Hi Guys,
I started work on this yesterday as, although I'm enjoying "driving" the Trucks in the game... I have to say that I've never even seen a single one of them on the roads anywhere within Europe. Obviously I've heard of them but I feel its a little unrealistic driving all these conventional trucks over the European continent. So I've come up with some suggestions I hope will be considered, I have included some information which I think is fair, and some pictures which I hope conform to the requirements for inclusion. If not I'm more than happy to do some of the background work involved if they are to be considered for inclusion. Trucks: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2001 Mercedes Actros  Top Speed: 52MPH Fuel Capacity 200 MPG 5.9 Load Limit 50,400Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 Volvo FH12  Top Speed: 50MPH Fuel Capacity 220 MPG 6.2 Load Limit 50,000Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2004 IVECO Stralis  Top Speed 58MPH Fuel Capacity 200 MPG 7.8 Load Limit 51,000Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2005 Scania R470 Topline  Top Speed 60MPH Fuel Capacity 210 MPG 5.8 Load Limit 52,200Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 MAN TGA  Top Speed 55MPH Fuel Capacity 220 MPG 7.6 Load Limit 52,000Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2006 Renault Magnum  Top Speed 59MPH Fuel Capacity 210 MPG 5.9 Load Limit 51,400Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2005 DAF XF  Top Speed 58MPH Fuel Capacity 220 MPG 8.4 Load Limit 52,000Lbs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now I know obviously none of those figures are "real" especially with the MPG, but I have tried to fit all those figures in with the other trucks in the game to keep things fair. I think that the selection of trucks above would give a far more realistic approach to the European arena and certainly make it feel a little more homely. Especially If I could have my beloved Iveco Stralis included cool.gif I hope they will be considered, and if there is anything at all I can do to help that then you have only to ask! All the best, Scarab |

Definately need to have an 2008 International. Just not that many Internationals in this game.

Not sure where you are from mate but all those Volvo's in the game aren't available for sale in Europe at all! Volvo don't actually sell a "conventional" cab design within Europe. The only people who did are Scania with their "T-Cab" (as we call them) and they stopped making that last year. Its also not the best looking truck around!  Scarab |

Im shamelessly bumping this guys stuff as I think hes taken the time to do allot of the leg work for the game makers. Plus even though I dislike EU trucks for their looks the EU drivers deserve to have EU based trucks!!!! Cmon oversurge!!! =P

I think instead of focusing on more American trucks now, they should focus on adding Europeon trucks to the game to make the Euro side more realistic...

Great job Scarab putting together the list of trucks for Europe. There should be Euro trucks in Europe. As for North America I'd like to see a Volvo 730 for all the flatbedders out there and maybe a new pete 387. There really should be some kind of Peterbilt on that last page.

I would like to see a peterbilt 386 added to the game as there is currently not one offered and it would be a good compromise between a full on aerodynamic truck (387) and the more traditionally styled trucks (379/389 etc). http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc_386.asp

As a driver who works for a LTL freight carrier id like to see more day cabs. 1 Mack on the last page is all there is offered in game currently and I had to buy a sleeper cab cause I couldn't afford the breakdowns on my International!
