    If you did an extended frame we could get something like this

    Looks cool, I could totally model that but it wouldn't have a jbeam because I don't know how to do it.

    You could modify the stock semi truck trailer, and put it one the truck frame

    FYI this mod already includes an extended T75 frame. We just need a big sleeper instead of the stock flattop sleeper. Less work to be done :) On the same page, IDK if the caravan interior could be used for the big sleeper.
    Tip: if you manage to do it, the extended frame could use some more steering.
    Thanks for your effort!

    What do u mean by more steering, like better steering or a better turning angle?

    Better turning angle, because the longer frame in that mod comes with the stock steering. And just as IRL, longer wheeelbase requires more steering angle to clear the same curve.

    Thanks for clarification, I do agree, Longer frame=More steering angle, I possibly could include a variant with better steering angle as a higher class edition, and have a lower class version with normal steering and less interior features.

    Tonight I will experiment with the RV interior to maybe retro fit it to work with this mod.

    the bench seats with table and a row of the overhead shelves inside the camper do fit perfectly inside the semi, so it will work if I decide to use it.

    I added a round top to the cab instead of a flat one, worked on the hood, doors and windows, no photos though, I was busier than I thought.

    This looks cool... Props too you for keeping this alive after 2 Years! Most mods are abandoned by now.
