Should there be any engine limitations or do you all think that should be free game?

I always figured that the chunky off-road tire was more of an AT style, as the game is based on what is sold OEM.
We just bought a new F150 truck and granted its more of a judgement the Goodyear Wranglers that came on it seem more like a "medium" tire than a hard highway tire.
Edit: nevermind, I just went out and looked it has the HT version.

Any downside (stats wise) from using old bodies would be even for everyone, though I'd assume stronger with the 1950s pickup instead of one of the 1970s ones.
