Any PAs can model regular everyday cars and trucks?

What I would like to see (and maybe these are already available and I haven't found them yet) are everyday vehicles with minimal details that could be parked on urban streets. I have a few urban environments, but they're completely devoid of parked cars, giving them a "ghost town" look. These would be background props or at the most somewhat blurry vehicles in a render. They could be almost generic shapes: cross-over SUV, sedan, picku-up truck, van, etc. I wouldn't want them to be recognizable models of actual vehicles. The idea is they would be light-weight props, little more than forms, to add to a scene.

 These low poly SUVs fall into exactly that category. Lite on details and polycount,  and hence you can place dozen and dozens of them into a scene in the background without a major hit on render times.

this is a very nice product. It would be great if there were another set that was sedans, trucks, and so forth, to blend with the SUV style.

There are also some low poly generic cars in a few invironment pruducts, like Stonemasons Urban Sprawl 2 and 3, and Bituka3d Gas Station.

Thanks for the link to the low poly SUVs, 1st Bastion- and thanks for making them! I agreee that a few more low poly vehicles would be nice to mix in with these.

More, but more expensive. They do have great sales very often though

If you are using Smart Content you can switch the top tab from Products to Files, then in the left bar select Transportation / Land, and all the vehicles will show up.

You're welcome! I'm still learning myself; just recently figured this thing out.

I find this collection of low poly cars quite useful, despite being ten years old and made for Poser: https://www.renderosity.com/marketplace/products/102050/20-low-rez-vehicles

Here's an example of them in action - the three cars in the background are from this set. The foreground cars are Car Ranger, the "everyday car" freebie already mentioned in this thread, and one of the Daz+ sports cars (I forget which one).

This free shader set is super useful when converting/adapting old car models: https://sharecg.com/v/81213/gallery/7/Material-and-Shader/DAZ-Iray-car-related-shader-presets-megapack

looks really good. thanks . I think that traffic product requires something else to work?

Not sure what you mean by "that traffic product." The low-res vehicles I linked to are just a collection of stand-alone vehicles that work on their own. They're made for Poser, but work fine in Daz Studio. Each one has a single material zone and a single all-over diffuse image, so if you want to do stuff like apply iray metallicity to the chrome you have work to do making suitable masks. I've not found it worth the effort.

Thanks ... now that's a traffic jam.  I somehow missed this one.
