To answer your question as to why us Yanks are moister than an oyster over the International- it's an iconic piece of vintage Americana. Those things are still around and it's a testament to the American manufacturing of old- when stuff was built to last, rugged, capable, etc. The era of that truck was when the American legends like International, Kenworth, and Peterbilt nearly immortalized their reputations as standout, quality brands. Not to mention that period was also the last hurrah before the Malaise Era really set in- with the OPEC oil crises, environmentalism ramping up, and economic stagnation setting in, the American automotive industry as a whole lost its luster and soon found itself with less dynamism than a freeze-dried sloth and as much charisma as a low-grade bank clerk.
Interesting, to be fair my point of reference was a prominent Farm Sim TH-camr, who did not articulate the history so eloquently. Makes sense it is a vintage brand I was under the impression this was a current vehicle. After using it for a bit the engine note is pretty sweet, compared to the other trucks i have driven in Farm Sim. Thanks for sharing!
can you use cruise control and steering assist? like a pseudo worker? If it's possible you should make short tutorial for it. then we could grab a bite while bailing.
Yes I have tired this actually works pretty well, for baling however the pick up does get all the pick up all the time some minor bits get left here and there, very handy for curved areas and fields, I'll make a note of a tutorial I think that would be helpful for people.
I agree acceleration and braking not to mention steering is bad. Steering has never been the best like making a corner and suddenly does 180 in FS22 but there is no recevery in FS25 so still steering issues lol
I just tried out the tele handler with 4 wheel steer and it is ridiculously sensitive also tried the skid steer basically unusable as the steering is soooo sensitive
@affarmz ok so I am not the only and the flashing screen and flickering headlights hope the first up date fixes a lot of this stuff. I had same issue with 4 wheel steering slamed into a couple trees 🤣 rear steering is not much better fish tailed all over 😄🤣
@15:12 what a crack up.. I thought i was the only one that used the forklift in side view

(PS5) has anyone noticed the footstep/vehicle wheel audio is missing where there is snow coverage on off road ground post the first winter?
No haven't notice, one thing i have noticed is the rolling cloud cover is super, super annoying during the summer month
