The Farm Truck Challenge (Results, 3rd Place Announced)

[KLinardo]

Hey guys, just checking in. I've travelled back to Boss's original HQ location of Blue Anchor (IRL) for the holidays. I might not play Automation much until after Christmas, so I'm monitoring this off of my phone. I have all of the competition files on my laptop so there will be no delays due to my travels. Please keep tuning and sending in entries. This is shaping up really well thus far!

Also, *bump*!

With a deadline of Jan 8, I should be able to get something in!

After a long day of hard labour (sitting in my chair on my computer is hard work!) I have completed my final challenge of the day, spanning a great variety of vehicles.
The ABR Mule


Like it's namesake, The ABR Mule is a sturdy and reliable powerhouse able to keep working day in and day out. With 379hp and 530nm it is still able to kick you in the gut if needed to though.
The 6 litre V8 is solid iron along with the rest of the 6.16m body, totaling a solid 2,6 tonnes of farmers delight. With enough lights to light up the fields at night, enabling you to work 24/7.
Buy one today and get crackin'!

I have a feeling my entry is not going to fare so well.............

Feel free to revise up to the deadline.

[BlastersPewPew]

Oh no! I am sticking with what I made, I am not in these to win but have fun and see if what I make can sneak up to the top, I am the oddball out there that sometimes pulls that off Plus I like the look of mine, it WILL be different than the others, that I am sure of.

[KLinardo]

So now that we are past Christmas, I had time to hop on my computer and do some reviewing of pending entries. As of this post, all submitted entries have been reviewed and accepted into FTC.

For those of you still tinkering or who haven't started yet, we have 13 entries thus far (not counting my own test and baseline car of course), and the deadline remains set at January 8, 2016. I'm looking forward to writing up my blurbs and reviews.

On January 9, 2016 a secondary stage of this challenge will go live. More on that will follow in the new year.

[koolkei]

right. will start making it now

[KLinardo]

Happy New Year folks. Hope your 2016 is off to a good start. Just a reminder that the FTC closes a week from today!

may we use the truck body mod? I don't remember the name

[KLinardo]

If it's available on the workshop it's fair game. I have a link to thecarlover's mod thread in the OP.
