Goofed Up on Cough Syrup!
Freight Trade Caravans stand some modifications.
First, you pick up the food version far too soon, currently at the birth of the motorized transport, the hammer version at Consumerism is a bit late I guess but it works fine. I'd put both forms of freight into consumerism though is war that really spurred their acceptance.
Keep in mind that the US was the only major manufacturer of trucks in ww2 and every other nation had to rely on rail and horse still if not given the legendary Yellow Cab Company's ubiquitous deuce and a half from lend lease
There's no need to supply troops in the forward lines in this mod so might as well shuffle it to the non war butter techs.
There's a huge difference between horse drawn and mature mechanized transport, they need to go at least 4 movement tiles, the speed of an unpromoted light tank from Mechanized Warfare. Upping the limit to 7 would make sense too since once trucks escaped, no one could get them back into the bottle.
---
Modern workers should also get a speed bonus because they moved to trucks and not horses, start them off 3 movement and then work up from there as you get more advanced workers. Not to mention like start modern workers off with 3 promotions, 1 each woods hills and plains.
Industrial could get plains and woods and more futuristicWorkers can start with desert/arctic as well.
Cheers!
