Update*
Thanks for the example. I didn't think about it but it was the fact that I was using 1 gear vs 4 gears. 4 gears makes all the difference... I could probably go with a slower rev count, or lower torque but I figured 1500/100nm range was a good range (and a chasis that fits the appropriate engine of course.
The 4 gears made all the difference, and not reducing low gear rating. Not as quick or light as your truck (although that's not important with truck requests). I made the following, I found steam to be practically useless and heavy.
Here are my examples for posterity.
The expense ratios for my parts where
Chasis = %31
Engine = %45
Gear = %25
Truck #1 100 NM, 21 hp with 1.9 L I-5 17 MPGs
Truck #2 126 NM, 27 hp with 2.5 L I-6 16 MPGs
Truck #3 150 NM, 33 hp with 4.4 L I-6 16 MPGs
All engines were done as cheaply as possible with 1500 RPMs as a goal, 100,125, 150 Nms respectively. Only the weight (min) and rev slider are at max... with some slight fuel tweaking.
