So I revised my old "Wheelie" truck thing and fixed it up a bit. I actually had a lot of fun building and testing this so it was worth it to me. Has working suspension.

HISTORY/BACKSTORY-
-The XB-5 Platform was designed to be able to get to most place fairly easily and provide excellent anti-air defense and/or moderate artillery support. It was first tested in 2020 and put into full scale production in 2021.

CONTROLS-
-To Drive: Use PITCH for throttle and ROLL to steer.
-Act. 1-4 launch the Air to Air missiles.
-Act. 6 and 7 fire the artillery shells.
-Act. 5 kicks the truck into a higher gear.
-Act. 8 on/off will toggle the trailer sway type thing.
-VTOL controls the missile battery elevation.
-TRIM up to a little bit under the quarter way mark first thing. It puts the steering wheel into position like a real car does.

Notes-
-The truck is a bit high-centered and might catch on some stuff. If you don't explode then you can use the trailer sway thing to help get un-stuck. You will want to raise the missile battery a bit before firing anything so you don't explode in a firery inferno. This is the first time I put any details into an interior before so I hope it suits you guys.

@SteadfastContracting I will :D
@touchface Thanks. And maybe you can study this truck to help you try again on yours.
@SteadfastContracting Yes,I did.The weapon system is so cool.And I
used to want to build a truck turning in this way, but failed(I don't know the name of the truck in the real world.)
@SteadfastContracting welcome
Thanks @touchface
Did you like it.
Thanks @AviownCorp
Thanks @laSoul
Hope it was satisfactory.
@Squirrel Yeah, it was modeled after it. I didn't have an idea of how to make it.
@SteadfastContracting Smooth ride. No problems at all. I saw the gear stick, it's very similar to one on one of the cars I uploaded.
Thanks @Squirrel
How'd it ride?
Yeah, I just read a post from @AndrewGarrison and he explained that he fixed it.
@zed
@zed Well, then it sounds like it has been taken care of. I would think a SPOTLIGHT would mean insta-upvote anyways.
@zed yeah, I think the Devs are just trying to fit what the majority of people want. I think they may have had a few different versions of the site to put up depending on peoples reactions to the first one.
Thanks @shukurneon
What did you think of it?
@denialofservice Okay, please let me know what you think.
@SteadfastContracting idk, I had to fav it for later because I have band camp but it looks really cool. I'll check it out when I get home
@zed Lol, yeah. I do like the JETSTREAM thing though.
Thanks @denialofservice
Did it drive smoothly?
@zed Lol, you must have had the same notification problem I did.
Thanks @zed
Hope it didn't explode on you.
