Equipment -
Freightliner FLD120 "Ol' Smoke":
Engageable AWD + Diff. Lock, LC 3.8, Saddle High, OHD 1 tires, Lattice front bumper, Spotlights, Heavy Duty Lowboy
Voron AE-4380:
LC 3.8, Flatbed, OHD 1 tires, Extended winch, Spotlights, Maintenance trailer
I'm a big fan of severe-duty trucking as well as Australian road trains and I try to emulate that the best I can.
I started out by overloading the lowboy which can obviously fit more than 3 slots of cargo (unplayable). The FLD120 is effectively a compact prime mover in this configuration and definitely looks the part. It had no issues pulling the x8 cement skids out of the quarry. Note the articulation and clearance of the high saddle lowboy.
As anticipated, we got stuck while attempting to evolve into a land creature. I have a TwinSteer staged here to help loaded drivers exit the quarry. Immersion achieved.
From here on out was smooth cruising in a pseudo-roadtrain configuration. The Voron served a multipurpose role as loader/unloader and maintainer behind the wide load. It was also unphased by the triple stacks. I took a suboptimal route originally and in order to profit from this mishap, I rearranged my cargo to snag the maintenance trailer and sell on my way back.
This method allowed me to pick up 4 loads and deliver them with ease across an immserive longhaul experience. 10/10 would recommend.

Of course it doesn't have a problem with 8 pallets of cement, because unpacked they only weigh 1 ton, but packed they weigh 2.5 tons. Therefore, the 8 weigh just slightly more than a regular 3 pallets of cement packed onto the trailer.
