    The frameless dump is great. Now we need a grain trailer...

    1) Has anyone noticed that the cylinders on a dump trailer don't extend quite right? I've noticed that the hydraulic cylinders don't extend fully, but the top cylinders start to extend, then as the top cylinders extend, the middle cylinders start to extend some more, note this, can anyone with experience confirm this?

    2)Another small drawback is that the rear container doors open one at a time, first the right, then the left, and close first the left, then the right. If you close the right one and then try the left one, it doesn't work, but if you press the right one and have time to press the left one before the left one closes, it works! What shouldn't be happening, to solve this, you need to add a collision to the right sash jumper so that the right sash hits it and can't close

    3) The retractable part has a collision where visually there is a hole

    Noticed something about the rhomboid danger decals on the Container Tanker trailers and the Side Boxes of the Tanker trailers and the Tanker Upfit of the T-Series: there should be more options other than the existing "Corrosive" on the Container Tankers and the "1203 - Flammable" on the Tanker Trailers and the Tanker Upfit, to fit with the load we're carrying each time. I mean, Water isn't flammable and Milk isn't corrosive and it would also be quite the procedure to use a tank for transporting Milk when it was previously used for transporting Diesel (Heaven forbid) or the opposite. These decals should also be a removable part in the parts selector, for all of the aforementioned reasons. Not to mention that the Side Boxes should also be openable, for extra realism.
