Small farmers like myself hire a guy to truck loads of corn. From the field to the bin or even to the close elevator we use gravity wagons. Cmjustic, why can't there be gravity wagons also?

I'm just glad to hear(read) someone calling it a wagon and not a trailer with a swivel axel.

Trailers have hitch, wagons have an axle. The Radio Flyers weren't called "Little Red Swivel Axle Trailers"

I'm not saying there can't be. We use them from time to time also but the original poster said he was tired of using tippers on American maps but Hopper bottoms have been in the game since the beginning is all I was trying to say. But we also use hopper bottoms in real life.

I saw that comment as well. If it is true, whomever is doing QA on mods needs an "adjustment" in their understanding of farm equipment.



Also, they need to remove all the hydraulic push and drag chain trailers from the game as well, as they don't "tip" either.
This is truly sad a shows lack of understanding of common AG practices in a large market. I prefer running bottom dump trailer especially for hauling to market, would definitely use some gravity wagons for hauling capacity during harvest. Farm I worked on for years farmed 10k acres and ran 4 sets of gravity wagons and 4 trucks w/ belly dump trailer during harvest.. trucks hauled grain to market all winter/ spring / summer.

Would be nice if you could actually fill the large seeders that have their own auger with a gravity wagon. Ive tried it on pc and it doesn't work. Always been surprised theres none in game as basic as they are. To me their perfect for starting out. Hope console gets em

Thought it was a whatchamacallit or even a whosiewitz. Possibly a thingamawhacker.
