this has nothing to do with what range of the MAN TG you have (S or X) but how you spec it, this is just an option paket like it is the XT for Scania or now the C for the new DAF XF and XD

the old TGX also had this, if you want a step that can give way if you drive against something you will get it

the TGS has also a different front, it is not as big as on the TGX even though the trucks look identical except for the width of the cab

Why scs didn't put the options of analogic dashboard and manual handbrake? They are available as option even in the MAN configurator

Which should be available in a future update soon.
Cool, thanks. But the "individual" paintjob should still be replaced with something which doesn't make the truck look like it's covered in crappy primer. it should be metallic, for starters (your single-color paints don't seem to have the glossy-reflective look, only metallics do).

I don't understand why so many people wanted an analog dashboard when digital is just perfect?

And the new MAN's digital dashboard has an "analog" look somehow. Just to my liking! :D Anyway, I would like to have an alternative, means a real analog dashboard, but the standard one is surprisingly good for my taste. So I don't know if I would replace it.

Studio lighting matters.

Sure, but this one looks bad wherever. And I just checked, it _is_ metallic, but only with the base color set (seen it before and I just don't understand why you guys do this, the result is always horrible). Here's an idea: set flip color a tiny bit lighter to get it a bit of a glow close to straight angle, set flake to black to remove the white washout and make reflected lightspots sharp. See how that looks.

Don't get me wrong : i like the digital dash(best one in the game so far, imo)
But yeah people want it(the analog dash) because... different tastes and more options, i guess
And i'm one of the people

The digital dash hasn't bothered me as much as I thought it would, but I still would like to have options and would choose analog if given the choice.

I am enjoying this truck besides the befuddlingly poor seat configuration range. I could see this becoming my most-used truck. I normally am not a big user of 8x4 but for this truck It's pretty neat. I think it's the duty bumper in the front that helps it look better. Not sure how realistic my specific configuration is but I like it.

Another chance to shout out how amazing Innsbruck and Austria in general is. My favorite country/state to drive through in either game, although I'm sure Switzerland and B&H will give it a run for its money.

Yeah, a fresh Wind with a truck that gets a working horse option, wish we got this with the E6 and the Scania XT
