Based on Bigfoot's latest rig. Had a ton of fun making this truck. Tried some new techniques, some worked and some didn't, but I overall feel like the truck is a big improvement over even the HD trucks.

New semi-fiberglass chassis with additional detail in the cradle, where it helps most. Not totally satisfied with this but it's a direction to move in going forward. Also a new way of drawing the chassis texture which is a big improvement IMHO.

Low-poly interior with translucent windows. Been aiming for this for a long time, and while the effect isn't perfect it's finally a way to get some interiors on these trucks. Total body verts: 656, three 256x256 textures and one 64x64 texture for the window tint. Low detail models use 64x64 textures to keep lag down.

New axles based on the PEI units the real truck uses with additional steering and tie rod detail. 114 verts, one 64x64 texture.

There's a different lighting effect at night as well that didn't quite work the way I wanted but is still more true to the truck than headlights and taillights.

Anyhow, give it a try and enjoy. Will be making other trucks based on this body as time goes on since Bigfoot is using it quite a bit for multiple identities now, and it's generic enough as a Trophy Truck body that it could conceivably be used for other brands.
