I am planning on making a heavier duty d-series so here's a thing I wrote. Gavril D55 This is the Ultimate Truck Made For Work! Its Story: The Gavril D55 was a limited production vehicle made for commercial use. Many companies bought this and turned it into a flatbed or dump bed vehicle. It was produced from 1989 - 2003. Gavril designed and produced the 6.9L V8 for this beast. In 1990 you could get it in an automatic format, in 1992 you had the option to add the 6.0L diesel designed by Navistar. In 1997 Gavril redesigned again the D-Series, and Gavril was working on making the D55 the best truck on the market and kept producing the D55 till 2003 for other vehicles. Features: Super Heavy Duty Front / Rear Axles ( 2WD & 4WD ) 10 Lug Wheels ( 2WD & 4WD ) D55 Side Badge Long / Extra - Long Flatbed ( For Upfit Body ) Early / Late Diesel Dashboard Upfit Exhaust Dump Base Model / Deluxe Model Future Updates: Dump Box Brand Skins 7.5L V10 Engine Heavy Duty 6 Speed Manual Transmission Short / Long Bed Utility Bed ( Dually Included ) 10 Lug Wheel Spare Snowplow 5 Wheel Hauler Trash Compactor Box Dump 6.0L Navistar Badge Late Crank Window Panels Spaced Out Parking Lights Wheel Simulators Working Parking Lights Rare Head Lights Utility Light Notes: Mod Based from: 1995 Ford F- Super Duty Shown Here Credits: BeamNG: Original models, Textures, and JBeams.

I'd suggest not using the Wiki as editing has been disabled, thus the production years of the D-Series are outdated along with other bits of information.
https://www.beamng.com/resources/d-series-heavy-duty-parts.14029/ this mod is about as close as you're gonna get for now. As for the dump upfits, that's something that I've been wanting for a long time for the D-Series. We'll just have to wait and see for that to come to fruition.
Just wanted to give a little criticism on this part of your story (mainly logistics), but I don't think they would discontinue it knowing that it's supposed to be a pretty big company, and there doesn't seem to be any implications that would suggest they'd have to make or break it. Plus, if we take the Super Duty for example (and since you're basing it off those, it's more than fair enough to compare it), those trucks were very adaptable and still sold well in their market so they wouldn't really get rid of them any time soon.
