With models, for me it's not about immersion but rather some fascination with having little versions of real things ... I don't know why, and I especially don't understand why making models of anything is 99.9% a men's hobby :-/

What is this a computer for ants? It should be at least ... four times bigger.

That sort of thing, but with little trucks, diggers, forklifts, and tractors all by radio control ... I guess I never understood the appeal of train sets whereas driving a little truck around looks like fun

If you want to check out something related, wierd, and interesting check out German radio controlled truck conventions ... lots of people go together and drive their RC stuff in a sensible realistic manner. I find it adorable.

That's what we call an attention getter!

I'm in this comment and I don't like it.

Human being can be oddly obsessive. In other news, I wish American Truck Simulator was available for PS4 :-/

Which then becomes Buy and Large, for branding purposes.

Can't speak for other games, but there's a LOT of former truck drivers who play Snow Runner.

Back when I was working as a forklift driver, when I broke my leg and was stuck at home on the sofa I really enjoyed driving the forklift around in GTA5 and just moving palettes​ around.

That's absolutely crazy, here even a main dealer wouldn't charge more than 30€ for fitting (not counting weirdness with pressure sensors, mooses, tubeliss, or stuff like that). Well, maybe Ducati would charge more, but they have a reputation to uphold.

Depends on how well the first season goes, the producers are a little cautious in case the bears aren't really as viscous as they said on their CVs.
