I would find it great if the skins only for the trailers would be and not find in the traffic, you i can create your own trailer.
Would be great mudflaps to skin, so anyone can create his own company.

in double b configs it is common to see 3-4 trailer combination in fuel tanker class and within box and reefer trailers
i'd like to see 3-5 axle variants with and without steering
expander trailer where trailer expands to fit width dimension of load


note: typical with the likes of BP,CALTEX, SHELL, MOBIL and GULL average is 2-3 trailer, though seen upto 6 in b x single x dog x b x single x dog x b x single

in double b; it's 2 xx b's and standard trailer, whilst you could pull upo 5- b's in a row I would suspect you would need a power unit past the 3rd trailer, much what the they use up north for the ore carriers that use the kenworth 908 as the prime mover

Added after 23 minutes 18 seconds:
something I did forget to add that in Australia they do confine 2 trailer limits within the city limits due to length, outside city limits in staging area they can connect up another 1-2 trailers..

what is seen in the above pics is generally considered a metro area limit

I am very happy with the current set of trailers , Great job Guys!

Only wish I have would be nice to see the 3 additional red (park Lights) above the rear doors and if possible have the turn indicators located in the top left and right corners as well.

Keep up the great work and thanks in advance if you could consider adding the above as an update ;)

Cheers

Not really. Most, if not all MC trucks are b-doubles only in terms of fuel tankers so they can deliver fuel to metro locations.
It's only in the interior (NT, WA) where the big trucks roll. BP and Shell own that market.

They call those B-double, B-triple, AB-triple, BAB-quad, BABB-quin
All of the above are pulled by "standard" (ie. 500+hp bogey-drive) trucks, except for the quads which have tri-drive axle sets on the prime mover. The Mack titan II is one such beast.

B-triples and above are not permitted east of the Dubbo hub (in NSW) because the Pacific Hway is load-limited to 86tons. This is a contributing factor to 90% of line-hauling b-doubles on the eastern seaboard are not fully loaded.
but in Victoria, Ford Australia used to have a B-triple tautliner that serviced regional areas straight out of Broadmeadows!

Most MC combinations of 4 trailers or more are RingFeder hitch (ie. not fifth wheel and trailer pin).
Most - I'd say 80% - trucks along the eastern coast of Australia are b-doubles and of those types of trucks I would say 7 out of 10 are Kenworth.
