ExtraNoise's 1990 Lumina APV & 1991 Silhouette
Introduced by General Motors in 1990, the Chevrolet Lumina APV and Oldsmobile Silhouette minivans quickly gained notoriety due to their divisive styling. There were a lot of fans who likened the wedge-shaped design to futuristic Star Trek shuttlecraft, but an greater number of critics likened the vehicle to a portable vacuum cleaner called a dustbuster. These 'dustbuster vans' were ubiquitous with American suburbia in the early 90s and now can be a part of your suburban Kentucky experience as part of the zombie apocalypse.
About
This mod adds both the 1990 model "Lumina APV" offered by Chevrolet and the 1991 model "Silhouette" offered by Oldsmobile. The Silhouette was a slightly more luxurious model than the Lumina APV.
This minivan features 6 seats for you and the whole crew to travel together to Louisville in the best vanlife style, with plenty of storage space in the back to return with all that sweet loot you found (assuming you survived)! It's not super fast at top speed, but it does accelerate faster than a pickup truck and handles more like a car (just like minivans in real life). But a warning: the van only has three doors and each of the four backseats is accessed via the rear sliding door on the passenger side. Don't get caught out and eaten alive because you were on the wrong side of the car!
This is my first vehicle for the game. Right now, this vehicle doesn't feature any of the more robust features some vehicle mods do (like animated doors and windows or modifiable parts) but those are absolutely things I intended to add. I am going to get started working on my next vehicle that adds some of these features and will be eventually coming back to update this minivan with the same. So please keep in mind that this vehicle behaves like the base game's vehicles, at least for the time being.
Ethos
My goal is to release cars that fit naturally into the game world and stylistically match the base-game's textures and art design. Additionally, I've also strive for my work to look great with other vehicle mods that share a similar ethos, such as Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars and improvement mods such as the Vanilla Vehicle Enhancer, among others.
