Those enclosed luxury car carriers would be nice, along with a new dealership for luxury cars. This would really be useful as we push east, as in Alabama there's a Mercedes plant, in South Carolina there's one for BMW, and all along the East Coast there are terminals for RORO ships that bring in European cars, surely with some Rolls Royces and Ferraris among them. Luxury carriers could even apply now with the Tesla plant; I'm sure the higher end roadsters would get the enclosed treatment.

That luxury car one is a Euro trailer though. I'm not saying they don't exist here, but I'm not aware of them. I know we have Kentucky style trailers though that could haul them.

Found this Enclosed car carrier trailer with a curtain slider design.

@flight50 They're here as well! As I mentioned, the higher-end BMWs brought to my dad's dealership will almost assuredly be brought in a completely enclosed trailer. It looks and operates the same as the European ones. It'll have two stacks of cars inside like a normal carrier, as well as some side doors that open up so people can get in. The ramp in the back will elevate up and down to load and unload the cars on each level. Here's a photo of an American one. I just thought the Euro ones showed off the inside and the doors better than any American ones I could find. Maybe next time my dad gets a delivery I'll have him take some pictures for me to post here.

Here's one moving a Lamborghini. Looks like the lambo has Ohio plates so it's definitely American. This one is probably privately moving the car for the owner though, rather than delivering it to a dealership. Also notice the door along the side so someone can access and drive the car out easier.

@Bedavd Yeah that's a Kentucky style trailer as I was mentioning. They are storage/moving, motorsport, commercial, mobile medicine, Enclosed Auto Transport. Nacar uses them. The Euro one you posted doesn't work for North America. Here is the link of what they are https://www.kytrailer.com/. These are the trailers I got the o.p. to include in the polls.

Oh nice! Didn’t know they were called Kentucky Trailers hahaha. That makes sense then. I’m not sure what the difference between that and the first trailer I attached is that would make it incompatible with the US Aside from the roof hinging up it seemed the same to me. But I’m nowhere near as knowledgeable with the trucking things as y’all are, so I’m sure you’re right

[flight50]

Yeah the Euro one is way fancier. Most of their stuff is higher tech, lol. The roof elevates and there are more side panel doors. Essentially its the same but that model is Euro spec.

@flight50 Realiable Carriers run the enclosed trailers as they run a lot of cars for Barrett-Jackson and private collectors. They have a few open trailers but not many.

I would like to see Asphalt Cement/Hot Oil tankers added. These are what I haul in RL. They are used as short haul, repeat loads, from refineries/storage terminals, out to asphalt production/paving plants and road rebuild/repair jobs. We have the production sites in game now. I've loaded/delivered some material at them. But I have not seen the particular type of tanker used in the store, yet.

[flight50]

I have a good feeling that tankers will introduce several new and reworked tankers as Phase 3 of owned trailers for some reason. I'm not trying to hype tankers as I don't really use them much but tankers and lowboy have always been the most requested trailers. They probably have the largest variety. Lowboys came and was more complex than I thought and SCS did a great job. Only things not so great on the lowboys is no flip booster and the strobes are very unrealistic. They should be incorporated into the trailer like ETS2 lowboys got or at least 2 options for strobes. I've never seen the style of strobes we have in ATS. They spent a lot of time programming and modeling wise to get them lowboy in and I like the job done. I'd imagine tankers are much easier to deal with but they are having to do several types if new industries come online. I'd love to see some new companies get some new skin tankers. So far the options are very thin with ATS company skins.
