Trader: Small Wagon vs Large Wagon
I'm only just getting into trade, just did my first moonshine sell which was interesting, having to drive as if playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 seriously and the random police checks which I did comply with making me sweaty and nervous, very interesting, I like it.

Anyway the main point of this discussion.

I'm not at the rank that'll allow me to upgrade my Small Wagon yet, plus I'm a lone wolf and prefer to be a lone wolf, so I'm asking ahead of time if the Large Wagon is worth upgrading to, not because of the hassle filling up completely, that's what the Hunting Wagon will be for.

I'm asking because wouldn't the Large Wagon be slower and more sluggish to drive than the small wagon, while the Small Wagon doesn't have the carry capacity of the Large Wagon it should technically be faster and more agile to the point rival players will give up chasing it, because unlike your personal horse, the horse pulling the wagons don't tire from sprinting and don't appear to be slowed down by rivers too much from what I've noticed, therefore a Small Wagon really wouldn't be worth chasing because catching up to it would be insanely difficult especially if the driver isn't an idiot trying to find shortcuts all the time.

Of course the Medium Wagon would be the middle ground of the two and it'd probably be the best wagon for me rather than the Large Wagon, I say the Large is better if you have a Posse to help you with, as a lone wolf the Small or Medium Wagons might be better for me., but what do you think?

If you are worried you will be attacked do local deliveries. Also alt f4 to get away works as well.

Even on local deliveries there's still a chance you'll be discovered by another player, so do I go with the Large Wagon to carry all my goods but at the cost of speed and mobility, or do I go with the Small wagon which has speed and mobility but lacks carrying capacity, or do I just go down the middle with the Medium Wagon for an average mix of both.

Also I'm a PS4 player, I just don't like using any other forums except for steam.

The cash you get from a large wagon ($625 for long distance delivery) is worth upgrading to it.

If you are a lone wolf then use this, it works:

the best wagon give you 500 dollars in local , it's always worth it to use the bigger one .

You can't upgrade the moonshine wagon, only the trader wagon.

The moonshine delivery roadblocks are a bit like getting pulled over by the cops after your Amsterdam trip. You are just hoping for the best.

Since the bar is right next to Marcel, I always get super drunk before starting the delivery.
The revenue agents even comment on that. "Are you drunk? Pull over!"

So, drunk I get pulled over almost every time, but also get sent on my way after the stop, almost every time.

And if they find something and start shooting, good luck to them.
The moonshine I get hammered on earlier gives me golden health, stamina, and dead eye rings. Basically "Liquid Courage", the moonshine makes you invincible for a brief moment.

Ive done so many deliveries i rarely get attacked if you do on a local delivery just report them for griefing and alt f4 to save the delivery.

Large wagon is definitely worth it even if you run solo, and simply do local deliveries. If you have a full 100 good run, its $500 cash for local and you can't be attacked. Its also worth noting that 99/100 is like $395 so its definitely worth waiting for the full 100 run.

That said, if you ever want to do distant and need some other players to posse up with, feel free to add me. Im usually on everyday.

Large, there is money bonuses. Its more eficient to do 1 run instead of 4 and also get more money.
