    Oh well. At least the model looks nice. :)

    I just drew myself over my old PFP, and zoomed in, for my new PFP.

    dunno how possible it might be but retrofitting that more modern looking design to the md could maybe used as a facelift of sorts? since it kinda looks like the "modern" h series thats produced until 23

    It could but I don't want to use the MD as a base. It's inaccurate with its frame and weight class selection and I'd still like to offer a proper medium duty spanning class 4 to 8

    Do you still have plans to update it and add stuff to it or no?

    Ah well I just had no reason to gatekeep it as I wasn't really feeling on working on it lol. I have some cool looking things to show if I can get more progress on them and have them ingame, but that probably will be a while

    If by some chance you ever come back to this, would you consider retconning it as a ford Louisville style truck? maybe mixed the cab of the Louisville or a similar design with the topkick style hood of the current Durham

    At the very least, that's something I'd like to see on the MD-Series: a tandem rear axle. IDK why the vanilla one doesn't have it yet.

    It probably will in an update down the line. I've done some work to add tandem axles to it & it already has some code in place indicating that it could be included at some point.

    If you don't want to wait, Javielucho's Mad Mod adds in a tandem axle for the MD series, but the only downside is, it doesn't have the rear mudflaps or taillights to add on. (I've also tried to add them on by editing the jbeam files, but it broke the truck completely). It could be selected for either frame/cab length as well.

    Of course I want tandem axles for the MD but about the pictures I was mostly thinking of the cab (a more “big truck” tall cab rather than a pickup cab), like the ford Louisville. I thought of this cause both Louisville and Durham are cities and in lore it could be said that Gavril has a factory in Durham NC that built the trucks, just like Ford built Louisville trucks in Louisville KY

    Are you going to come back and fix the bugs that have appeared in the latest game updates even if you have no plans to add new features? One major bug is that the box truck boxes other than the smallest one no longer have an option to add loads. Also, if you do want to do more major work on it (but still comparatively minor) I second the idea of changing the lore instead of the vehicle and rebranding it.

    This mod has been mostly superseded by the MD-Series. IMO there's little point in doing major changes to it.
