FS25 CAT 3406B Generator v1.0

Perfect for your power outage and severe weather roleplaying needs! The CAT 3406B working generator!

This is a vehicle mod that you can enter, start and operate. You can pick it up with forks (it’s heavy) and you can transport it around the map via a trailer.

Enter the vehicle and start it up.
Rev the engine to the desired RPM
Turn on the genset and control panel lighting
80L fuel tank that needs to be fueled from the back when empty.
Can be picked up with proper implements and transported around the map.
Watch the video to learn how to operate the generator. You can set the engine speed by entering the vehicle, starting it, revving to the desired RPM and then, while continuing to hold down on the gas, exit the vehicle. The RPMs will remain at a constant and she will blow dark DIESEL.

In the future I would like to create something for this mod to do. Possibly turn a PTO or provide electricity for something. But my modding knowledge isn’t there yet.

YES, it has errors. I’ve attempted to remove as many as possible. However, I don’t think the game ever intended to have a vehicle actually start, operate and run but have 0 gear ratios or 0 forward and backward speed.

I’ll do my best to update int he future. Until then, please enjoy. Fix, adjust, modify, whatever you feel like. The goal is to have some fun roleplaying
If you have suggestions for improving these mods I am always grateful to hear from the community.
