Yes. I've got a few versions of it in the works.

I'm working on a Chicago version of a pumpless ladder right now. Once I have that ladder body down solid, I can create additional trucks.

Not douchey at all... I've heard this before, and respectfully disagree with the opinion. I don't agree with the notion that because those people can go do this work elsewhere, that we shouldn't take any measures possible to help curb the abuse happening here. To be honest, 50% of these abusers will likely give up simply because it is made more difficult for them to obtain the models to rip. This community is a privilege for people to be part of... there is no constitutional right that we must allow anyone and everyone in, and allow them to stay, unless pre-defined rules are broken in a black & white manner. Rather, this is a privately operated function, where the owners, managers, moderators, etc. can choose who is in, and who is out... without reason if necessary. There is no requirement for any leader of this community to maintain some kind of due process or the like. Just like, if it is not liked that I'm questioning how things are being approached, I could be kicked, and as a private establishment, that would be within your right. It would just be a sad day when the developers with morals decide they've had enough here, and decide to pull the plug... leaving this place with only those of less character and ripped/stolen models... When that day comes, we won't get any joy out of saying "told ya so." And trust, I am mad at the people who steal and rip. I'm not mad at the moderator staff, just disappointed. This apparent "turn the other cheek" when they know people here are taking models, ripping them, and distributing elsewhere... it's a bummer. You mention that nothing would be different if models were taken to a different website or Discord... and you're right, the ability to obtain models would remain, but you best bet their ass will be permanently banned once their morals are discovered. When you say "Even the idea of punishing people for what they do on other sites and/or in private is outrageous..." isn't actually that outrageous. Imagine if you live in State A and your driver's license is revoked or suspended... you don't have a license to drive in any other state either. State T doesn't say "well, the reason his license was suspended didn't happen here, so we don't have to enforce that here. He can drive without consequence if he wants." Again, my disagreement with the opinion here is not out of disrespect. The leaders here have the right to operate the community how they choose, I just think it should be of great interest to the leaders to hear some of the other opinions and concerns. Thank you for your time.

True... but, sadly, my days of sharing models on this website may be coming to an end. It has become disheartening to people like myself who put money and hours into models for the community... only for portions of the community to take these models, rip them, and share private unlocked versions across the web. This website offers no protections against that, or actions against the person, unless said ripped model is then re-uploaded here. To not ban the people that are stealing from some of the community's best model creators is to passively endorse their behaviors. When it's their community to run however they want, and they choose not to remove malicious thieves... I don't know how anyone with morals could be expected to stick around.

Yes, I'm working on a few variations for a mini-pack.

I think it might be the angle/zoom of the pic? They don't appear that big in game. But I'll have another look-see.

You're not mad? 😛

Already swapped in dual wheels on the trailer...

A KME model doesn't exist... but I can certainly change the grille and put "KME" on it and call it good. Lol
