Cirillo & Sons UT-61 "Aravelda"
VEHICLE WON'T GO INTO GEAR UNLESS YOU USE THE CLUTCH [3]
[i] The Cirillo & Sons UT-61 "Aravelda" is a staple of the Segierian logistics system, both in the military and civilian sectors. [/i]
Being an easy to produce cabover with a moderately sized turbocharged V6, there is very little to say about this truck that isn't known by most Segierians already. The vast majority of Segierian labourers will have driven, loaded, or worked on one of these vehicles at some point in their life, even many decades after the truck's initial debut.
The short frame of the UT-61 allows it to remain manueverable even in denser populated areas, while still providing enough strength to deal with most loads even up to small 5th wheel trailers. The Aravelda can begin to struggle when paired with trailers that are beyond its weight class, such as when used for logging or hauling heavy machinery, but UT-61s have been known to be used far beyond their rated limits in a pinch.
Cirillo & Sons did briefly consider adding an additiona axle to the Aravelda in the interest of reducing stress on the frame while hauling heavier loads, and a few prototypes do exist (UT-61e), but it was ultimately determined that Cirillo & Sons would be better off creating an entirely new truck, citing concerns about attempting to fit a larger powerplant into the already cramped engine bay.
[i] This particular instance has been lightly modified with a bumper mounted electric winch, as well as a small roof rack for supplies. Many such modifications can be seen on just about any Aravelda on or off the road, in many different forms. [/i]
Features:
[list]
[*] 5 Speed manual gearbox
[*] Functioning windshield wipers with 3 speeds
[*] Front mounted winch
[*] Top speed of 130Km/h
[*] Instant reset A/D steering. Takes some time to get used to, but helps to alleviate overshooting your turn due to janky stormworks driving. This operates similarily to Warthunder wheeled vehicle steering.
[*] View steering, for smoother high speed steering
[*] May or may not feature an overheating issue, I cannot be bothered to drive it long enough to see if the cooling loop holds up.
[*] Cirillo & Sons' "Some questions asked" warranty!
[/list]
Operation Instructions & Pointers:
[list]
[*] With the transmission in neutral, turn the key to the left of the steering column
[*] Use the clutch [3 BUTTON] to change gears, ensuring that you give some throttle to prevent stalling
