There should be 8x4/4 options for Daycab and 740, removable side skirts and 400 and 760 cabins. I don't understand why SCS didn't bring more cabin options. How many cabins will there be with the new FH? There are also 5 different cabin options.

Why they dont bring more cabin options? Probably because they decide 3 is enough work and money on one truck... How many cabs will be there for FH? 3 as always.

In terms of new Volvo models, the following model will likely be a hotly awaited electric vehicle (EV) from the company's lineup. Volvo is likely to maintain its dedication to electric mobility given the industry's growing emphasis on sustainability and environmentally friendly transportation. We may anticipate a fashionable and technologically cutting-edge EV that combines Volvo's distinctive style with cutting-edge electric technology given its reputation for safety and innovation.

That would take a while.

First of all, we need charge stations all over the map. Second, I don't know is the game can simulate electric engines in an accurate manner, i know the simulation has problems with 2 stroke engine or petrol engines (or at least it used to have) and I’m not too sure a simple torque curve will suffice.

Cascadia has 4 . I wish we get another plus. 760 would be really nice for VNL. One Flat top option for W900 would be also great. Etc.

Electric truck are pointless for anything else that short routes with light cargo, otherwise their range becomes abysmal. No need to include them in the game, at least in the forseeable future.

About those 3 cab options, 300, 740 and 760 with driver lounge interior option could have been the best choice. 860 cab shape is outdated, but it is what it is, I'm happy with what we got.

I think I would still take the abysmal range over not having them altogether. Best case they could make the range equivalent to a daycab with the lowest tank capacity. Although there are other better ways to utilise the vehicle team, it isn’t to say that electric trucks had to be excluded for those reasons.

All options will never be provided. Once that is realized, it gets easier to understand just getting a taste of the experience of (x) model. Had they given the options spoken of here lately and exclude the ones we did get, you guys would be complaining about those missing options. I'm happy they gave us what they did. The truck has been missing for years. Enjoy what we have.

I'd much rather the 3 options we got and move on to the Paccar models missing. Do 3 trims there....jump to the next Paccar. Rinse and repeat. If time permits, go back down the road. Even then, I'd rather see SCS finally dio into out of production trucks. I'd be happy with 3 trims fir all trucks to sacrifice for more variety.
