BsM is making a semi with 950 hp i do believe, its a tandem axle with an extra set that drops down, maybe has more bells and whistles with it, idk, but it looks great.

Most, if not all, of BsM's mods are made console ready :mrgreen:

For consoles..we need transmission or lower gear ratio..at least a selectable gear ratio when you buy it.then if needed to alter the ratio
then to the toolbox or custom shop and get a different gear.thank ya...Chris

Hey man, one step at a time we got really far with the operating doors on the MF pack, lets not push it.

This idea belongs in the manure pit. Just 1 more way to burn up our valuable slots on a single piece of equipment.

It's really hard to say. All mods have to be submitted to Giants for testing. Once it passes testing it will be available on the mod hub. If it fails BsM will have to fix all the errors and re-submit it to Giants again. All you can do is keep an eye on what is in testing in Lis's thread. BsM is a group of people so they get mods out fairly quick but last I heard they are taking a break after the mod contest.

I would prefer gears over power..cause thats more realistic then over powering the truck..if a few slots was used for a trans or adjustable rear gear..that would be ok ...to me and probably others..but its up to Giants, ,but I hope it they do it at some point. ...Chris

I Agree with Novass you can place as much power in a truck but if the trans dont have the torque and gears to move the load then you have nothing .. in fact its a great idea ..

Also talking about slots .... the big buds take a ton of slots .. so id prefer to have equipment that can move product faster then huge tractors
