U-Haul has a new support truck and luggage trailer for running around the ramp delivering and picking up cargo. After deliveries of the new MOZO 5000 tractors began to arrive at U-Haul Field in Walla Walla, Washington, U-Haul immediately began to modify both truck and trailer to suit it’s needs.


I had fun modifying @Broman6368’s cool tractor and trailer this afternoon. I put together a different style “trailer hitch” and made a couple small changes to the tractor.

The first change I did was to the the style of connection between the tractor and trailer. it still utilizes docking ports connection, but the ports are now attached to hinges configured to move freely (or “floppy”). Also, the trailer can now be disconnected/reconnected as many times you want.

Some info regarding the docking with the trailer:
When the craft is first loaded, the tractor and trailer are not connected. connecting them with this “trailer hitch” is fairly straight forward. First, make sure the dock on the tractor (AG5) is on. Line up the tractor and trailer with the hitches as straight as can be made.
Use Slider 1 to extend the tractor hitch down towards the connection on the trailer. When they get close enough, the dock ports will orient themselves and line up, and a hard dock will occur. To help with getting a hard dock, use Slider 1 to jiggle around the connections until it locks. It normally doesn’t take a lot of jiggling to get that dock. Once docked, you can retract the trailer closer to the truck using Slider 1. Now you can drive it around with the trailer attached as much as you want.
To disconnect the trailer, turn off AG5. Just remember if you want to reconnect you’ll need to enable the dock again by enabling AG5.

And aside from the U-Haul theme, the only other change was adding a secret/special cargo in the trailer. It's hidden in plain view... lemme know if you find it.

    Also if the dock doesn't want to make a hard dock, just drive off of the runway or launchpad. the bump always seems to complete the dock.
