so after looking long and hard i managed to track down the bus body mod and see what i could do with it, and i managed to get a 12 liter V12 engine into it, however it kinda doesn’t know what to do with certain aspects by having the ride height be 4 and a half feet in the air and also be completely unmarketable by being so expensive outright by the steel needed, nontheless, i tried it, this was the result:

i’m not doing anything fancy this time, i was contemplating modding it to be rear engined but A: IDK how and B: it’s impractical enough already front engined

here it is, the biggest rival currently to the popular ford F-Series, the Galt G series. the G series comes in many forms, including the 1500,2500,3500,4500,5500, and for specialty applications, 6500 and 7500. all of which include a 4WD and 2WD version, differentiated by either a F for 4WD or a T for 2WD. for this specific post, i shall be introducing the G1500F. the G1500F, is basically, just awesome. it comes by default, that’s right, by default, a 5.6L fuel injected V8 that gets the truck an average fuel economy of 11.4 MPG, not the best, but 200 horsepower sure does sound nice. the advantages of the truck are that it is completely made of steel, it’s the definition of a truck built to take a beating. a PR stunt included driving one off a cliff (and the bright buy behind that has since been fired) and at the bottom was a mangled mess of metal (imagine the top gear hilux when they were finished with it) and not only did the engine turn over, but it started, and even managed to drive away miraculously enough. well that’s enough stories for now, let me show the truck with specs.

As can be seen, the truck features a unique hexalight headlight setup, with a single large blinker under the lights. the front also features one of the largest grilles we have ever put on a vehicle, being capable to cool even the biggest of engines out there. as for the back, there’s not much special happening back there besides the reverse lights being on the tailgate. as for interior quality it is your standard basic truck interior, not meant to wrap you in luxury, but at least be comfortable enough to ease off your workload, since hey, main market for these trucks would be people looking to haul things, whether it be pulling a trailer around a yard, carrying a trailer across the state, or even a small load of lumber across the country.
(notes: 1st vehicle i made with over 100 desirability!! yay me!! also before asking about the challenge scores, they are still on track to be released before the end of the month, just made this to kinda get back in the swing of things, as it has been a while since i made a car)

ah ok, and thanks for the positive(?) feedback

[Oskiinus]

It’s quite positive - the car itself looks good, very good (I would drive it xD) however I wasn’t expecting result like that. I was expecting plenty much more of plastic

Good looking range of cars you’re building up here, but crikey! The G Series looks longer than the Titanic!

lol thanks for the feedback, and it’s just perspective, it’s around the same length as your standard truck you have around where i live

following the massive success of the '88-'96 model G series, the '96-'04 model was introduced. this new version included a completely different body with all new fixtures, however the original engine was kept, but without some modification. the SPEFI was changed over to MPEFI to help improve efficiency (however the fuel economy somehow didn’t change) while still being a very desirable truck, it’s more desirable in different markets than the '88-'94 generation. the truck itself is still highly dependable and reliable.this time the PR stunt that sold it big involved it trying to haul a short passenger train, which it miraculously got moving, even for there being only 3 rail cars it was still great. however the more famous one for reliability involved in entering one into a trucks only demolition derby, and it came out as the victor. again, enough with the stories, onto the truck (my marketing campaigns will always suck )

the truck you see above the the 1500F extended cab, now a base trim option for this model year. and again, the F does mean it is 4WD. well… my brain is going blank on marketing ideas so uhh… it’s as great as the outgoing model!

[cpufreak101]

hey all, it’s me here again. this time i’m uploading an older design i made, then came back to, and done up to the best of my abilities. What is it essentially? well, a rear engine minivan for all your family needs. when i left it i was having marketability issues along with massive over-steer issues. i have fixed the main issues (though marketability isn’t quite as high as i’d like it, hopefully i’ll come back to it one of these days) to actually make it a nice family van. and as i said this is an older design so the sales pitch has all but escaped my mind, so i’ll just upload the specs. also i’m trying out uploading the engine specifications aswell, see how you guys enjoy it.

yeah, i know, the exterior design ain’t the best, i do quite like how i got the vents in the rear to actually help give away the fact it’s rear engined.

[cpufreak101]

well now, how boring is that, i post the same model twice in a row, just sit through this, the last one is worth checking out, beats a E46 M3 at the top gear test track.

so the 1999 model year Kyaria. what can i say? it’s a family van, a very good family van. there are 3 versions made for the launch in 1999, the R, the PR, and the SP. only the base models are available as galt’s currently unnamed (friend suggested GVTS, i like it) technology similar to honda’s vtec will not be an option at launch. well it’s 5AM, my brains cooked, so time to bore you with some minivans.

R spec.

PR spec. (no difference in design)

and now the van i told you at the top, with a time of 1:31.7, it is officially faster than the M3 E46, RX-8, and nissan 350Z for some examples. and it’s a boring minivan from 1999 (sleeper from factory status anyone?) oh, also, official green hell time is 9:20.38. any other tracks you want to know the time of for this van, just ask
SP spec.

if anyone actually looked through all the specs, i congratulate you for being a fan of my work

A-Are you mad, sire? A Front Wheel Drive, V-Eight Minivan!? I would say Blasphemy, but this is far beyond that! Good day Sire!

Anyway, Awesome machine!

LOL i’m actually laughing at that, and thanks for the positive feedback, and maybe, i’ll add it to the suggestion box

Read top bit in Posh English Accent, Kek for days!

@Vri404

Read top bit in Posh English Accent, Kek for days!

agreed

and forgot to mention, even crazier the fact it’s not even a manual, your bog standard torque converter automatic, traditional minivan equipment

[cpufreak101]

for whoever thought the V8 was crazy…

i’ll have some more versions of the kyaria on the way, just not as exciting, i should look into a marketable one that has a V12 though

[cpufreak101]

the year is 1985, and the CEO of galt automotive makes a press release informing people that a close friend of the CEO is trying to start up a car company called Efini Motor Corporation, the CEO has given them startup funds along with engineers and some manufacturing equipment, along with access to Galt’s supply of production engines

[cpufreak101]

in 1975, Galt took a communitasia and rebadged it as the Tetrad after slapping a turbo onto it, it was a limited production car made for a single year with a grand total of 2250 made, an estimated 1900 are still in operational condition. however in 1985 Galt had revived the Tetrad as it’s own car lineup of sports coupe’s. The early ones were only offered in manual transmission after the automatic version proved to be undesirable after Galt sold only 100 in the first month in comparison to 2000 of the manual. The R spec model had the VI-150 engine originally built to try to win a contract with Peppermint. the R spec also had RWD only. the SP spec model also used the VI-150 engine, but this time it had the sport variant instead of the deluxe variant used in the R spec. The SP also had a all new AWD system installed which helped it achieve zero wheelspin making it a very grippey car.
R spec (manual) (my designs will always suck )

R Spec (the undesirable auto)

Sp spec (AWD, manual only)

the R spec for this model really seems to be crap with the SP being way better, hopefully the Gen II is better (or at least the mid-life facelift possibly)
