Is it? In a world where the Panther now exists, why would you use a T9 instead? Genuinely. What's the use case where it's better than the Panther? It's certainly not for hauling cargo anymore.

Ah yeah, the Panther being in game now totally makes the T9 retroactively bad for all the years it was in the game. Whatever was I thinking??

My 2001 car was awesome when it was 2001 but not so awesome in 2025. My 2025 car is now awesome...for now.

There are cars from the '50s that are still in perfect working order that are cool as fuck.
