For those of you who dont know, having weight in the back of the trailer causes it to be unstable (causing crashes) so the weight should be loaded just in front of the axle on the trailer

I found my truck at a bridge building, have actually changed from an armored one to a flatbed at one. Bridge buildings are occasionally found along the road by most I have seen are away from the road. Also, dying just loads the last autosave, don't worry about it happening.

So the sleeping in this game actually works on a cooldown system, rather then a sleep through the night system. That bar that shows up when it says "can't sleep yet" shows the time remaining until you can.

I did try this combination, small wheels were more stable. A bit to much glitch and to few content to keep playing it tho

My giraffe is named Geoff, so that's got my vote lol. Oh and a quick tip to get your door 100% shut - when you are behind the wheel, just detach the door then reattach it. It's mounting position is fully closed, so it will be as shut as possible. Hope you get the truck soon, I can't wait to see you struggle with one of those lol!

I can describe this game with one simple word: *Fisiks*

Turn off the option to autosave when driving. It will get so much worse as you progress. The giraffe should be called LongneckX as it's obviously Canadian. I think you can use a basket or a metal bar to fix it to the front of the donk.

Never log out inside a building, When you come back in it will add extra loot and it might kill you!

With the eject-the-crap boot system, it may be the big bus/truck wheels clipping into the boot and then the items brushing against them. Idk if the boot has the no- physics thingy like the crates and the glovebox, but it's a potential explanation

I got this game because of you lol anyway I got a truck at the large petrol station where you found two cars, save there and load back in, also check all toilets you'll find a ak47 there.

gidday from Oz. with me once I got 350-400km down the road in my bus it got extremely hilly with massively steep hills to climb. the bus engine did not handle that too well with lots of revving and going nowhere, like clutch slip or something. had to go back to a car and now back on reasonably flat again at over 500km. still have not found a truck yet. have had vehicle suddenly die a few times whilst UFO flew over me along the road. in the hilly section make sure you got plenty of fuel as there are no ships and bugger all of anything else. while driving click and hold right mouse button to get about half binocular distance. the sword is a great weapon against rabbits. truck more likely spawn at the two tower thingy with bridge between them.

You need a sun visor or two. That black thing is the air intake for an air cooled two-stroke I believe.

Best combos I could find : - car with a truck engine, a bit less powerful than the bus engine, but much more manageable, lower gravity center so much better handling and stability. Careful though, the truck engine sticks out pretty low below the car, unlike the bus engine where you can pass over rocks up to size 3 without issues, if you do thhat with the truck engine mounted ... - truck with a bus engine, wow ... very difficult to tip over, very good handling and enough power for top accel and top speed. You have to start in third gear if you do it manual as there is so much torque. With this one also you can cruise at top speed, even better than the car handling wise. I lost control at top speed many times and did doughnuts at high speed but didn't tip it. Sometimes does, but mostly not, just pray not to hit anything while spinning. I removed the speedometer of the truck and put the bus one instead, I find it more readable. Besides I like the old fashion clock. BTW, you don't need to avoid rolling on rock size 1 and 2 with big wheels (truck or car), the truck and car with bus engine can go over them, there is enough clearance (even for size 3 rocks I think), and all big wheel configs don't seem too affected if the wheels hit the rock straight.

KZread have a unique sense of humor, it recommends to me your 4 year old Forza Horizon 3 videos. =)

Make sure to move the heavier barrel to the front of the trailer! It'll help keep it way more stable!

The giraffe's name should be Harold but I suspect no one outside of Australia will get that reference LOL

Hi Alex. I, for one, would name the giraffe Geoffrey, in honor of Toys 'R' Us. Edit: I've always found the trucks at bus stops. Edit #2: Also, the reason your game lags every now and then is due to the autosave. If you turn it off and just do a manual save at every building you stop at, the game will run smoother.

a boot is a type of shoe for me and a back of a car is a trunk for me too

Geoff is a great name idea

Hail! More long drive!

You can pick up dead rabbits. Do that and throw them away. I ran over one that glitched into my truck and it was stuck there for days until I could glitch it free...

Although your wheels clip your car body, they do collide with the objects in the boot and rear seat unless they're tied down.

This would be awesome for a stream.

Geoff the Giraffe in spirit of the old top gear XD

A name for the Giraffe? Geoffrey, of course!

You should play 'the long dark' ,it contains cars where you find resourches or can shelter from snowstorm but none are actually drivable mind you,stil a great game

HAROLD! Any self respecting giraffe must be called Harold to honour the one and only leader of giraffe kind... A name even the tallest of the savanna trees fear... Healthy Harold

you should put baskets in the boot as well

Finaly: another long run

You should switch to a nice rear wheel drive estate car A nice lada estate would be a great upgrade, you'd only need the rear wheels to be large for the bus engine, while the front ones can be small for steering and stability It'd be a much more drivable build than this top heavy fwd Dacia You'd be able to cruise along at 160kmh without issue, maybe able to find truck faster
