Meet Johnny, he’s a 30 year old Gasmean driver in 1970, who’s ready to upgrade from his Fruinian CBC Quest to a big comfy luxury cruiser. A boat on wheels as they say. He is trying to start his own luxury taxi service where he moves important figures from city to city so he wants something that would establish this business well! He wants to buy something new to make sure he stands out and bring every eyes to him!

Stable build
Taxi? Hmm… for a car valuing prestige at the top and price at the bottom, it sure is a low budget. I’ll build a taxi if that’s what it be, but I’d rather make something deserving a proper interior.
Actually wanted to see some discussion on that. Does anyone want to use superchargers and think it can elevate their builds? Cause personally I do think it can be done and rules will change to accommodate for that (mainly the minimum for comfort and drivability and possibly the price range. But current ruleset is on stable version.
Balancing reasons, I think the advantage of LSD is too big over the open diff, but i don’t want to discourage using LSD over open diff by making it more expensive, so i made the open diff cheaper. Lore wise, it’s an old tech and it saves on labor costs so it’s cheaper. I put it there since if you think you can achieve a good drivability with open diff, you get to put the money in other areas like interior or maybe brakes!
