I'm going to have to agree that the manual ramps are just not feasible in career mode. While the model itself is beautiful and well-made, the functionality of it is limited, at best, with the manual ramps. I'm playing with RLS career overhaul, and this trailer just doesn't work in that setting. While the "node grabber" exists in career now, only being able to use it on foot with EXTREMELY limited movement range/capacity makes it frustrating and unenjoyable to use this trailer. I spend 10-20 minutes every time I want to load a car just trying in vein to get the ramps to behave, when it could be just the click of a button. It never fails that one ramp simply refuses to connect. I've tried "wiggling it" as the modder suggests (which isn't a real solution to an obvious bug/problem with the model), but to no avail. It simply bounces around for 5 minutes before finally falling off and I have to start all over again. When I "get in" the trailer, it shows damage on the rear/bumper area, despite me not touching it at all. With RLS, repairing the trailer is a long, tedious, and expensive task, and this trailer seems very delicate/unable to withstand any damage and still function. I get that the modder was trying to recreate a real trailer, but in BeamNG, the physics engine and coupling jankiness simply makes it near impossible to use the trailer for anything more than a photoshoot in freeroam. The author tries to argue that manual ramps are the only "realistic" option, but realism doesn't equal a fun game experience. I think nearly everyone using this mod would agree that auto/folding ramps for career mode would take this trailer to the next level and make it a "must-have" mod for RLS career. Until then, it unfortunately gets a "meh" from me.

In fact, the best car trailer we have in BeamNG but one issue..
For some unknown reason, the right ramp won't attach to the trailer like the left one. I've tried it on all the trailers in the pack, and the problem persists even after reinstalling the mod. -

Amazing Mod! One thing though, the preview images for it are not present. I hope this doesn't come off rude. Thanks for making it!

the fact it relies so much on the node grabber makes it a bit clunky, but once you get the car on it, it functions like a car trailer, so there's that.

Would be nice to have a version with ramps that extend with the press of a button. these are (for me) a nightmare to use.

Great mod just with the 50 102 Tandem Dually, you cant drive on the ramp to get on the trailer

Awesome looking mod. Also agree too tedious to use ramps in career mode. Node grabbing is too weak. Can't move them around. They keep getting stuck. Any chance for a version that you can click to unlock then click again to hook them up, minus the dragging? As a YouTube career streamer, it's not practical to fiddle with it forever with an audience. Thank you

Incredible mod, looks very good and good quality. Btw do you know the name of the skybox u use on West Coast?

Trailer is incredible, the node grabbing is riddiculously difficult, some of the nodes don't allow the ramp to be picked up and they get stuck in the ground frequently. Unfortunate because other than the ramps the trailer is a joy.

Pros: Excellent mod!
Cons: It is very difficult to place the ramps into their storage position after use, I spent around a good 10 minutes on one ramp alone.-
Author's ResponseAlign the ramps centrally, lift the front part up and drag it onto the ramp deck. Move back, grab the rear and walk forward. Once its in vaguely the right spot, you can click the rectangular trigger for each ramp that was there before unlocking and they should automagically glide back into their perfect position

We need more trailer mods like this in the game. This particular one is totally awesome and now its even better when they enabled Node-grabbing while on foot :)
