So, before the newest map expansion will come out, who can share their opinion about new trailer?
I’ll be short: I LOVE IT!
Firstly, I am glad that some players’ laments about the same load limit for all types trailer configurations will be the same are
not exactly true. Of course, it’s a bit odd that both trailers on my screenshots have an equal number of axles, but for the first one I can take maximum 48 500 pounds, and for the second one — way more (well, I did a little research —
this type can haul 66k pounds at maximum and
this type — 77.5k, no matter how many axles they have. Triple lowboys like
this one can haul 94.5, 97, 106.5 and 123 thousand pounds for 6, 7, 8 and 9 axles respectively — if you don’t count the
Special Transport cargoes), but this is much better than they did with b-double container trailers, which have no economic reason to buy.
Another reason I love them: no matter how cheap and simple your lowboy are, high-profitable orders are still available for you. So, doubles and triples have a valid reason to buy only if you like extra dufficulty, otherwise just buy the cheapest two-axle trailer and you still can take the 200+ k$ (at 50+ level, of course
) order from one corner of the map to another, without any troubles in reversing and making sharp turns.
Also, I like how they made some varieties for the same cargo (bucket or log claws for the front loader, for example), and you can find this machinery almost everywhere, unlike the cargoes for the food tank, or frozen food
