Nah all the cars have been checked so there will be no more bins now.
Yeah, my truck isn’t doing great in these early rounds. :|
Sure, it wasn’t targeting these stats, but I’m still pretty worried for it…
Also, holy cow you’re getting these out really fast! Is this thanks to Sky99’s calculator?

Has the Armour Tomahawk been average in this competition? If it was, it would make it an interesting successor to the Valencia.
Wait, what? The single cab pickup has two rows of seats? How?
it doesn’t
As a higher trim level I chose a more comfortable pair of captain’s chairs rather than a 3 seat bench, just two seats total.
I did the same, actually! Looks like our trucks are pretty similar; crew cab, 4x4 automatic, 2-tone paint; and they even have the same starting letter in their name! :D
PART 5: Safety
Even though Henry might have been the guy that was most likely to remember his seatbelt first when he saw a cop car in the horizon, he thought he could take a look at the safety ratings too, as an attempt to easier sort by the cars.
Worst safety: 1974 Akeos Soul (31.7) @Fayeding_Spray
“Well, it is small, it is among the older models here, and probably they trusted the cages and harnesses in the rally cars and thought a bit like “meh whatever” when it came to the safety of the road versions, so hardly a surprise…”
Best safety: 1992 Armor Tomahawk (58.1) @GassTiresandOil
“Armor, yeah, that’s the right name of the car when looking at the safety ratings, they are top notch. I guess that the main difference between a tank and the Armor Tomahawk is that the Tomahawk has air bags, so hardly a surprise here either…”

Huh, didn’t think I’d hit third for safety, I wasn’t really caring about it too much.
Ah well, puts me back in my comfy spot of the middle of the field :^)
PART 6: Driveability
Henry was used to drive shitboxes and a car that was somewhat challenging to drive didn’t scare him away, but it was still something that was worth taking a look at.
Worst driveability: 1992 Armor Tomahawk (34.5) @GassTiresandOil
“This far, the Tomahawk is one of the most promising cars, but it should be admitted that they don’t drive that well, hm. Worth having in mind before making a purchase, I guess.”
Best driveability: 1993 King Snake EDM type X (75.4) @Violent_Lobster
“Say what you want about this little smurf, but it certainly is easy to drive. Not that I was looking for a driving school car, but still, worth keeping in mind.”

Well, I guess you were foreshadowing then, even if you didn’t know about it. Oh well, still happy with a top 5 or something!
Yeah, big knobby tires and a stick shift don’t do well for drivability. Really didn’t think my car would be doing so well this early on!

The king snake must have got a really good driveability score, I’m second and got just over half it’s full score

PART 7: Offroad
Now Henry had sorted out some of the less important characteristics, he was taking a more in depth look on the stats that mattered. He was not necessarily looking for a pure offroading machine, but weather conditions are kind of harsh in the north and he liked to go to some places that were hard to get to, so offroading stats mattered a lot.
Worst offroad (tie): 1993 King Snake EDM type X / 1990 Hakumai Crest Sport (0) @Violent_Lobster @interior
"It does not look promising for this duo. I guess I will get stuck in some fresh snow if I am not careful. Not even the AWD of the King Snake will help here.
(OOC: not to be salty, but I kind of wonder what the reason is behind making a vehicle with ZERO offroad score in a challenge where offroad stats matter a lot?)
Best offroad: 1997 Boulder L150 Limited (83.9) @donutsnail
“Well, there is hardly an obstacle that this one can’t cross, and if you find that obstacle, you’re not supposed to drive there anyway. But not a surprise with that ground clearance and beefy tyres of course.”

What the- holy cow, I didn’t even know offroad score could get that high! Great job!
if it can do a inch of snow. Chances are it’ll spin out, hehe.
I’m glad I realised Offroad was actually important, so did the bare minimum to make sure I had a score lmaoo

PART 8: Utility
The need to be able to carry stuff was much more important for Henry than being able to carry people. A high utility rating would really be an advantage in this case.
Worst utility: 1974 Akeos Soul (12.4) @Fayeding_Spray
“Well… I guess I can fit a toothbrush in the glovebox. If I am lucky. Which I never am.”
Best utility: 1997 Boulder L150 Limited (78.6) @donutsnail
“Yet another area where the Boulder L150 scores very well, but with a huge bed and a payload capacity that more than well does match it, I am not surprised. This one is really made for doing truck stuff.”
