The Trunk - Big is the largest storage space a vehicle can carry. It turns a van or truck into a real cargo hauler.
The big trunk comes in Standard, Heavy-Duty and Sports versions. Each version fits only vehicles of its own type. The Heavy-Duty version holds by far the most, and it sits in the big vans and trucks. Trailers also carry a big trunk of their own.
Storage is one of the main reasons to own a vehicle. A big trunk can hold the haul of several supply runs at once. It suits a survivor who wants to move a whole base, strip a warehouse or carry building supplies home in one trip. The Mechanic is the best occupation for vehicle maintenance. It starts with the most Mechanics skill.
How to Use Trunk - Big
The trunk works as a large container on the vehicle. Items inside travel with the vehicle wherever it goes.
Condition matters a great deal. A damaged or misshapen trunk holds less than a sound one. Checking the trunk's condition shows how much space is really left.
Big trunks rarely spawn damaged. A vehicle with a big trunk usually starts with most of its space ready to use.
The trunk relies on the Trunk Lid on vehicles that have one. A damaged trunk lid lets items fall out of the vehicle while it drives.
Big trunks belong to heavy vehicles. Heavy-Duty vehicles carry the most cargo at the cost of speed. The Chevalier Step Van, the Dash Bulldriver and the Franklin Valuline are the models that come with the Heavy-Duty big trunk.
On a trailer, the big trunk sits behind the towing vehicle. A trailer adds a second large store of cargo to any vehicle that can pull it.
How to Install Trunk - Big
The trunk is fitted and removed by hand. Any survivor can do the job, whatever their Mechanics level.
The trunk must match the vehicle type. A Standard trunk goes only on a Standard vehicle, and the same rule holds for Heavy-Duty and Sports trunks.
The tools, Mechanics level and knowledge the game asks for to fit the Trunk - Big and to take it out again.
