i was wondering if anyone could make some suv's, a police car or two, an astro, and a firebird and some hondas and some pickup trucks that hold passengers. i need it for my next scenerio and i can't even figure out how to do the sprites part of making things so i probobly can't make them. many thanks!

i don't really care what year they come out, but the speed should be prety accurate to the real car.

What scenario is this? 'Depressing Suburban America'? Or is it a *cringe* Grand Theft Auto map?

cars could be viable, give them (say) £3 running cost, always, and make them only cost £100, at 2006 prices, and haveing a armarda of cars could make transport really easy

Yes, you could have 10 times as many cars getting lost and getting jammed up as trucks!
Trust me, it's hopeless. I had three grain farms with trucks collecting and delivering to a railhead for it to be taken away by train... I forget how many trucks, but basically enough so that there was always one loading cargo at the farm. I built TWO one-way depots to speed up their offloading at the rail station. Instead, I got a massive traffic jam where some trucks would just sit for months and not move, and others from way back down the queue would suddenly pull out and overtake their way up to the front.

I'll take a classic (1986-later) Saab 900 Turbo hatchback, please, in dark green preferably.
An entire fleet of Swedish cars would be nice too, you can fit 8 people in an old Volvo 240 if you squish!

Maybe you guys should go and play SimCity 4 if you want cars?

I argue that by point you actually mean "opinion".
But you're dutch and have yellow trains so I'll let it pass
