Re: Canyonero

Perhaps a little too overpowered, but A* for effort.
(Maybe this should be moved to car replicas...?)

Re: Canyonero

I unfortunately couldn't get a body that was two lanes wide and twelve yards long. And nothing close to 65 tons :lol: As for the engine, I figured the biggest most gas guzzling V8 would do. It gets half the mileage of a Hummer, and that's what the Canyonero is about.

Re: Canyonero

Its best market is premium offroad, and I think it's got a score in the 80s in there. I'll post a screenshot of that.

Re: Canyonero

Fuel mileage is waaaay too good.

Re: Canyonero

I don't remember that, but it doesn't surprise me. I could probably tweak the engine to make the mileage worse... 5.2 mpg is the worst I could make without sacrificing performance or being unrealistic for a late 90s engine (carburetors were phased out by the mid 90s). I know the 2014 hybrid model gets 11 mpg :lol:

That wasn't the Canyonero, that was his hummer like truck.
