Gavril T-Series (new)

Gavril T83 Sleeper

The updated **Gavril T-Series** is a line of medium-duty trucks produced by Gavril, with a turbocharged Belasco-Diesel 900CUI I6 engine and a 10-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission. To date, it is the only semi-truck available in the vanilla game. The **TC82** (cab-over) and **T82** (conventional) are Class 6 models. It is a 4x2 (two tires are powered). The TC82 is avaliable with a long frame, called the **TC82s**. The **TC83** and **T83** are the Class 7 models. It has a 6x4 chassis (four tires are powered). Like the TC82 and T82, the TC83 and T83 come with a medium or long frame, called the **TC83s** and **T83s**. The "s" in T(C)8Xs means the variant has a medium or long rear frame, aka an upfit frame. The TC83s and T83s are usually fit with upfits, hence the length of the rear frame. The truck can be attached to a trailer dolly to carry more trailers, though the performance of the T-Series can vary depending of the amount of dollies attached. Note, the trailers need to have a pintle hitch installed for the dollies to connect. And the dollies don't work in any other vehicle other than the T-Series.

## Design

The Gavril T-Series should be based on several trucks. The cab resembles that of a Freightliner FLC-120, with the fenders and headlights identical to those found on an International 9370. The grill, chassis, and overall appearance are very similar to a Western Star 4964EX.

## Configurations

#### T65 Base (Short)

This was the most bare-bones truck that you can get from the factory, had a T300 turbo that cranked out 313 BHP and 1475 NM of torque, only a passenger side exhaust pipe and only one fuel tank on the passenger side, and steel wheels.

#### T65 Base

Same config as above, except with a longer frame, and no upfit.

#### T75 Base

This truck also had no upfit, but it had two fuel tanks, still only a passenger side exhaust, aluminum wheels and most importantly, it rode on the T75 frame, giving it an additional rear axle.

#### T65 Fifth Wheel Upfit

It was basically the same as the long T65 Base, except it's got a second fuel tank, a fifth wheel upfit and mudflaps. While it could haul heavy loads, it struggled to do so on steep hills due to its power deficit, and if the load is heavy enough, the clutch may be damaged while doing so.

#### T65 Fifth Wheel Upfit (Short)

It was the same as the short T65 Base, except it had a second fuel tank, a fifth wheel upfit, mudflaps, aluminum wheels and a visor. It had the same drawback as the above config. This was actually the T-Series' default config.

**The following configs had the T350 turbo on their engines, and thus clocked in at 364 BHP and 1725 NM of torque.** **All T65 configs in this section had locking rear differentials.**

#### T65 Flatbed

This truck came installed with a flatbed upfit, a single passenger side exhaust pipe, steel wheels and 2 fuel tanks. From 0.24 to 0.31, it was possible to put steel pipes or wood planks on this flatbed via the vehicle selector.

#### T65 Cargobox

Same as what's above this one, but with a cargo box upfit.

#### T65 Car Hauler Upfit

Same as the flatbed upfit, but with the flatbed replaced with a rollback upfit.

#### T75 Fifth Wheel Upfit

This truck was the same as the T75 base, except it had a fifth wheel, mudflaps, a visor and two exhaust stacks.

#### T75 Dump Bed Upfit

This T75 had a bull bar, 2 exhaust pipes, 2 fuel tanks, aluminum wheels and, of course, a dump bed upfit.

**The following configs had a T400 turbo on their engines, giving them 412 BHP and 2020 NM of torque.**

#### T75 Cement Mixer Upfit

This T75 came with steel wheels, the usual double exhaust stacks and fuel tanks and a cement mixer upfit. However, the mixer upfit was quite heavy, making this truck more prone to flipping over than the other trucks, requiring careful handling on sharp turns.

#### T75 Long Haul

This truck offered a bit more comfort, coming with a sleeper and a two-tone paint job.

#### T75 Long Haul Special

This was the same truck mentioned above, but it had a bull-bar, a bug shield on the hood, custom exhaust pipes and a custom livery.

#### T75 Patriot Special

This was the same thing as the Long Haul config, except it also had a bug shield, custom exhaust pipes and a pure patriotism paint job.

**The following configs had the T600 turbo on them, giving them 607 BHP and 2696 NM of torque.** **They both came with a nitrous oxide injection, which when active, pushed them to make a whopping 1188 BHP and 6695 NM of torque.** **However, their differentials had a 3.55:1 final drive in them, slightly lowering their top speed.**

#### T65 Ram Plow

This T65 had custom exhausts, a pinstripe livery, a fifth wheel, a locking rear differential and a huge ram plow at the front. Besides any solid object or a bus, this truck could demolish anything in its way. Nitrous when enabled may implode the engine due to torque overloading.

#### T75 Destroyer

This truck is like the one above, except it rode on the T75 frame, and the mass is greater, therefore it had more force when hitting other vehicles. The exhaust pipes were stock and it was equipped with a dump bed upfit. It was equipped with an aftermarket 10 speed automatic gearbox. However, unlike the truck listed above, the engine had a greater chance of imploding when using nitrous.

## Trivia

* The Gavril T-Series' internal name was changed from "semi" to "us\_semi" during 0.31 could be a probable chance that European-style trucks are in development.
* The ram plow seen in the "Ram Plow" and "Destroyer" configurations is a reference to a *Mythbusters* segment in which the hosts built an identical plow designed to push aside any traffic obstructing the truck's path.
* In the day cab's interior, there is a piece of text on the right of the dashboard. If one were to inspect it closely, they might be able to make out something similar to the following:
* It is one of the two vanilla vehicles (of which, the other is the Wentward DT40L) which have the ability to implode their engines (with nitrous).
