    Cool. Is this modeled after a vehicle or something?

    Mercedes-Benz Zetros. But it'll be branded as an ETK.

    I wasn't asking you. And you are wrong.

    I Know, I was just telling you, and I have never heard of a Zetros, so eh, it looks a lot like a unimog, even know it isn't.

    Will the exterior look the same for all variants?

    Looks pretty accurate so far on the interior.

    The campers will be made by the same company, so yes they will look the same. But, the interior will be much different on the 4x4. It will be much cheaper with plastic and whatnot.

    It will have baked interior lighting with a glowmap maybe. Idk.

    Cool. I'm thinking of so many things to do with this and the WIP Fleetwood Bounder that is having an interior put in.

    So I need a name for it.

    It is an ETK, but I'm not sure if I want a string of letters and numbers or a word name like Nomonyx (it's a duck.)

    as a suggestion maybe as well as having it how it is may be have a version with a flat nose. like an atego
    i guess it is do-able if you did this though it would be amazing.
    (not saying it is not now)

    A name that hasn't already been copyrighted.

    Will it have a full-size ETK badge in the place of the Mercedes-Benz tristar?

    I can picture it already, good idea!

    As for the name... Since many of the ETK-exclusive paint colors are named after metals/chimical elements (Technetium, Cyan Steel, Zinc, ...), how about some neologism involving metals?

    Like, Zynctros?

    What about the Mountaineer or Titan? Idk, I'm not good with names. I'm good with names like the HES4 or etc.

    I like those names, but unfortunately they are already taken. HES4 is a good suggestion too. Maybe HDT4 and HDT6 for heavy duty truck [wheel number]
