The potential of a T-Series remaster.

I got to thinking because of a comment on the BeamNG Reddit, there is an immense amount of possibility in a T-Series update/remaster. Currently the only model years we have for the T-Series are 1977-1986 (I think) but imagine if we had a whole slew of trucks sharing the conventional cab long hood style starting in the 1950s all the way to now, in 2022, very much like the Peterbilt 3xx trucks, starting with the 351 all the way to now with the heavily modernized 389. We could have that, but with the T-Series. How cool would that be!?

 

agreed, and along with just generally widening the appearance and production years of the semi, it could also offer more different engine types, from things like 2-stroke V8s, to modern EFI urea injected engines.

as far as other factory stuff goes, while it is far-fetched, they could make the long-awaited Cab-Over variant, (or even a cab-forward variant if they want to add a garbage truck/fire truck.

For tuned versions, there's plenty of potential, with hot-rod variants with dropped and stretched frames, circuit racing trucks, tractor pullling trucks (which tend to be pretty good at drag racing) and if they wanted a rival to the JATO bus, a jet-powered dragster truck be jut the right kind of outlandish.

 

there are mods to make all of this happen. I have them.

 

2 stroke V8?

 

yep, 2-stroke diesels were quite popular in the mid-20th century.

 

WE NEED GARBAGE TRUCKS! Any load config for the containers is perfectly acceptable as long as the compactor works Also fire trucks would be very cool too but garb trucks first

 

something like a rangebox or twinstick style gearbox would fit well along with a detroit diesel style engine thats loud as hell, the t series is super outdated by this point and currently i feel like the only people who use it are people who wanna pretend they are truckers or someone just trying to destroy a car as much as possible

 

*loads up 2 pigeons inside the garabge truck and yeets it off a cliff*

 

Haha defo gonna do that XD

 

Well the GTG t-series expansion is pretty close. But I do agree that the devs should try some more stuff with the T-series

 

one of the parts i wish could be added to the t series are heavy duty two piece rims
they'd fit perfectly with the dump upfit and cement upfit configurations

 

It would also be nice to see the interior improved, since the current one is extremely basic and plain even by 1970s standards
