Tatra Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck/Farming Simulator 17

The Tatra Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck is a Truck available in Farming Simulator 17. It is one of the cheaper Truck models, but is also the heaviest truck in the game, and this gives it sub-optimal acceleration. Otherwise it is a fairly average truck.

Advantages

• Three Axles: The Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck's primary advantage over the cheaper Lizard SX 210 Twinstar is the addition of a third axle. This gives the truck better traction, improving its performance on steep roads.
• Free Wide Tires: The Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck comes with a "Wide Tires" upgrade by default, for no extra cost. It has a total of 6 of these wide tires - two on each axle.
• Cabin Over Engine: The cabin of the Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck is situated above the engine and front axle, giving the truck a flat front ("European" style). This makes it much easier to maneuver the truck in narrow spaces, especially when driving in first-person view.
• Rear PTO: The Phoenix 6x6 has a rear power take off point, allowing it to operate implements that require power and are able to be pulled via a Drawbar. This allows the Phoenix 6x6 to be used as a powerful tractor giving 462hp for only $138,000 albeit only being to operate a limited selection of equipment.

Disadvantages

• Reduced Acceleration: The Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck is the heaviest Truck in the base game. This in turn puts a strain on the truck's engine, which is not at all the strongest among truck models. You'll feel this strain when the Phoenix is towing heavy cargo.
• Lower Speed: The Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck can only reach 67 km/h / 42 mph. This is almost 20% slower than some of the other Truck models.
• No Rear Floodlights: The Phoenix 6x6 Agro-Truck does not come equipped with rear floodlights. This can make it more difficult to load some trailers in the dark. For example, night time logging becomes more difficult.
