    I'm honestly beginning to wonder if the reason the crawler didn't come out in 0.20.0 was because support for a Charro crawler came from so many different users that everything else was delayed to give time to work that in.

    I haven't seen so many people so excited to suggest a configuration like that in a long time.

    I requested a D-series monster truck and was denied. I can't wait for the Pre-Crawler though.

    Hey guys! I promise I am not dead, haven't rolled the subie yet hehe :D, Sorry about going dark, the Pre runner and rock crawling idea turned into needing to redo the interior of the D series due to some optimizations, the problem is it is all tied together and can't be released separately. Also getting side tracked on some exciting new things for the future. So that has to be done. Just don't get mad, I pushed for being more transparent with updates, but because of that, there will be some blank time, since you are getting updates in real time. But good news, I have some cool stuff for you all. Interior update! I will try to do better at responding to comments too.

    I'm guessing it's better optimized, with new textures/updated polys and all that jazz.

    I'm thinking now that the Prerunner/Crawler could be released with the final phase of the D-Series Remaster because Ferretank said it's all tied together. The Prerunner/Crawler could so have the updated interior and more things that the final phase of the D-Series Remaster will bring like possibly a modernish facelift.

    Naileddd it! Also yes, because of these optimizations it all has to be released at the same time, it can't be just one part.

    If you couldn't tell already, the upcoming D-Series remaster will have a 4WD Hi-Lo range selector, much like the one in the 4WD Roamers.

    mmm, lumpy vinyl doorcard inserts...

    I'd imagine this is also to give the ability for the roamer interior to be put in, for the not-very-well-kept-secret that is the 2000 pickup facelift.

    God, I really hope they don’t end up actually doing that. If the “1985” D-Series is anything to go by, it’ll just end up looking like this:

    Using the Roamer interior is fine though. The GMT400 trucks lasted from 1988 to 1999, and got this updated dashboard in 1995:

    Just as long as it doesn’t have wood on it. Which, knowing the devs explicitly stated they chose not to make non-wooded versions of the Roamer interior colors because it’d require making separate textures for them (the horror!) it probably will.
