Fontaine Phantom Trailer

ats Fontaine Phantom Trailer mod

The Fontaine Phantom is a discontinued model of all-aluminum flatbed trailer that was produced in the mid- to-late 2000’s. This mod covers the three trim/beam rating options that were offered (Phantom ST, Phantom, and Phantom X) as ownable trailer options, and also has the more fleet-oriented Phantom ST available in the Freight Market. There is a modest amount of customization options, including a sidekit body option (currently using the curtainside body type).

All of the base game flatbed cargoes are supported as of ATS 1.45, though a handful of models are still WIP (concrete tubes and pressure tank). For those who are using ProMods Canada, the plywood cargo from Canoe in Salmon Arm is also supported. πŸ˜‰

This is my first trailer mod for ATS, based on a vastly improved version of my original for 18WoS:PTTM. It is standalone, though it makes use of existing base game cargos where appropriate. It includes a selection of original cargo models by myself as well as some adapted from the base game flatbed trailer. It is also well-balanced with the game’s economy; It doesn’t flood the job market, and the loads pay reasonable amounts compared to the base game content.

Advanced coupling is supported, as is the trailer picker where cargos are shared with the base game flatbed.

Like my other mods, I will be adding and improving features in future updates.

Wheels:
This mod is compatible with my wheel pack. It’s not required, but if it is installed with higher priority than the trailer, it will use the Goodyear G314 285/75R24.5’s.

Version 1.2 change log:

– Added 1.45 cargoes (dumpsters, trees, utility_poles, waste_paper)
– Added Volvo CE wheels cargo
– Added chrome inset rear bumper options for standard and X chassis
– Added chrome version of toolbox A
