This should be in every truck.. I honestly don't get why that isn't even modeled in.
Yeah, it's quite bizarre to say the least. And it has been a problem with every truck with a manual so far.

Alas again wrong 5th wheel position for the medium and long chassis (like the 49x).

I'm extremely impressed with the 5700xe. The interior is easily the best out of any truck sofar, with just an incredibly luxurious feel to it; and I very much love the analog dashboard. It's got lots of great exterior customization as well, particularly bullbars which I'm very happy to see return.

My only real issues are as follows:
  • By default the player is seated too low and way too close to the steering wheel. Moving the seat can alleviate some of this, but only to a point.
  • The fifth wheel is way too far back, and leaves a huge gap between the truck and trailer.
None of these are deal-breakers, just constructive criticism that I hope proves helpful.

Just got time to try it out and seems pretty decent....:) Hopefully in future updates more choices for accessories. Like having all the interior choices, kind of different that you can choose the passenger seat color individually.

I started fixed to the interiors, as it should be according to the brochure.

I'm liking it more than I thought I would. The dash is what sold me on it.
In a world full of swift drivers, I'm an O/O.

5700XE.Beautiful truck. Sadly, it's "lagging" for me... (just that FOV...).
I'll stick with the 49.... and its companions. Sorry.

I believe the first person is in line with the real truck. All trucks have been like this so far and it's always the same discussion.

Really loved the 5700XE and also... the sound haha. Ok, it's not Kriechbaum's level bnut for vanilla one, it's nice compared to what we had in the past.

A couple of comments reagarding the truck.

- Don't see several WoT event prizes to be used in cabin accesories. Texas ones come up to my mind.
- Good amount of customization. It's really cool to have this features.
- It seems for some dots of customization a Tuning DLC can appear in the future... I would love to see some custom parts like the video I shared before. Custom wheels, rear lights, fenders, sideskirts, aero parts (Flowbelow).

But, in overall, kudos SCS. It's a very nice truck!
