To my surprise, nobody has yet made an RV in Automation before, so I decided to it myself. I based myself off of the first RV I could find on Google images, which was a 1979 Fleetwood Pace Arrow.

Unlike my other mods, I did not create this car with accuracy in mind. I just made something semi-realistic, while also being functional. (also couldn't find much info about it online)

KNOWN ISSUES:
As you might expect, this isn't an official Automation body, and instead a mod. Unfortunately, the vehicle is too big for Beam's physics to handle, which causes the front axle to break, and I am unable to resolve this issue, as it cannot be prevented by manipulating the Jbeam files (as far as I'm aware). However, it can somewhat be prevented,as the wheels will only break when steering at a high angle. Essentially, take the corners with ease, and no E-drifting.
For some reason, the indicators didn't export well, so they're just transparent. However, they do still function properly.
Lastly, not much of an issue, but I noticed the car is significantly smaller than expected. It's about the size of an H45. I am once again unable to change this, as I did not make the body.
Once again, I did not make this body and cannot eliminate any of the issues it has. I'm as frustrated as you are when driving the car, as it looks somewhat decent, but doesn't function properly. This problem might be resolved someday, when the BeamNG physics engine doesn't invert itself when driving unstable Automation cars. For the time being, I am sincerely sorry if you do not enjoy this car due to the axle breaking, but I am as disappointed as you are. If you have any suggestions for the car, or more importantly fixing it, please let me know.

In the upcoming weeks mod approvals could be slower than normal.
Thank you for your patience.
