    So, in the image I notice the DRL appear to be on. How do you toggle that?

    It was a bug, that we've fixed for the next update. The "running" electrics source had not been updated yet to work with the new powertrain.

    Try driving into a tree at like 100kmh and then immedeatly let go off the controls (specifically the gas) when you crash. Does the handbrake and message pop up? (presuming you actually hasn't deleted the message app).

    Also don't call gabester "gabe". When I hear "gabe" i think of the guy that blesses us with glorious steam sales.
    When I hear "gabester" i think of the modeling and general vehicle design genius of the beamng team.

    Neither of this is easily doable and it also doesn't really serve any purpose, so I wouldn't bet on this coming in the game...

    The ETK 8-speed DCT stall its engine when shift from R to D, Looks like the DCT cuts fuel during "up" shift

    Got a weird one:

    Anyone feel that there is a little too much front overhang?
    Was wondering why the bumper was catching on everything even with a ride height boost.

    It seems to be caused by the forward protrusion feature around the center lower grille where license plates can be mounted, the bumper support and headlights seem to be at an OK distance from the wheels.

    Also, slightly odd for the upper grille to stick out further than the rest of the bumper, especially at the bottom edge. Would be nice to match the flush-ness of the K-Series.

    To add if I remember right the front bumper was made more flexible to hide the problem with the ETK 800 series around I think 0.14.

    The ETK 800 is an executive car starting at $41k. The Cherrier is a cheap compact hatch likely starting at half of that. If you want a cheap post-2000 car already in game to compare to, you'll look at the Sunburst way before the 800.

    I know I am just saying cause they are both modern 5 door cars so this is the closest car to the Cherrier
    --- Post updated ---
    the sunburst is a 4 door not a 5 door

    So?.. If I had a $20k budget for a compact car I would be looking at the OTHER modern budget compact car, not the performance executive wagon that's double my budget...

    Two are i4 FWD budget compacts, one is an expensive RWD performance wagon. The number of doors is the only similarity. Are you also going to say that a 2 door Jeep XJ now competes with the focus instead of an Explorer?
