Here i am back again striking with a not so good new creation by me, i want to apologize in advance if this is not at the level of my previous cars, school is something i can't ignore and mostly in this year (after this one i'll have one year left to finish secondary school). Like always, any feedback, opinions and suggestions are welcome.
Quick summary:
- Big and heavy vehicle, can resist sometimes the explosions of bombs, rocket impacts and fake sparks.
- Slow acceleration.
Update 1: Offset2 set to 0 in parameters.
Major Update: new models (body, wheels, trunk cover) and textures, moved to the semi pro class, new parameters, changed description (removed/changed some texts), new folder name, new carbox and new custom engine sound, changed transmission from RWD to 4WD

DAMN, talk about a massive rework, and only got to review it properly. There’s a lot to digest here so, strap in. Phat Chief here is STILL, a fitting name. In fact, it’s even more fitting. What used to be heavy, is still very heavy and PHAT….the once greta handling it had, remained, but a bit heavier now, I like that. The new suspension work on it show it’s true weight status and I simply adore it. It used to be RWD, and now is 4WD, the traction it hold due to such heavy weight, is now shown in full. It’s good everywhere.
Now, for the truck. My God, what it used to be a modified pickup beetle, it now looks fitting and mean, like an old truck from the 40’s, 50’s, maybe even 60’s. The details…you knocked it out of the park. That said, now it has only one skin, with two variations, one for truck bed, one with it covered.
And the rating has also changed, for the better! We got too many Pro cars, so now this is a Semi-Pro – very deserving of it too. Massive, MASSIVE subtantial upgrade of it, Ghoster, I literally love this thing and is now a permanent keeper.
Like the description and name suggests, it is quite heavy, quite slow, and surprisingly good on handling. But given it is a RWD car, there was some sort of balance behind it. As common trait, it doesn’t do well on ice and off-road terrain, to keep this strickly for race tracks, asphalt, sidealk, you name it.
But more towards the external looks and the folder of the car given, it is both a show truck..and a modified classic, with the tail lights inspired from the Beetle and Bus, the front of the car towards the Beetle and 1940’s classic cars, while converted to be a pickup instead. I like the theme for it. The main paintjob is also good, but coulld have been better, at least the simple alternative paintkobs/skins for it gives it a more simple lowrider look. I dig it.
Phat Chief is a moderately okay pro car, not my favorite, but far from mediocre as well. The performance and aesthetic/model saves this car from just being okay so, good job.
