For someone looking to haul things around, what is the best group of ships to go with? I've got Min Industrial 2 and a Hoarder right now, is it worth getting a Mammoth and their transport ships or should I start working on getting Gallente Industrial? Any thoughts?

Yes, start working on Gallente. Especially when you want to haul big loads they are better.

Indeed, Gallente is best. Iteron Mk V holds most cargo of all industrials ships in eve. (But a Charon...) -Solid Ind.: AMPS - ADC supporters!

Support Caldari, get a Bustard (Tech 2 industrial)!
Barring the top of the line expanders it makes for a very decent hauler. And it is on the way to the Charon which is a serious cargo mover!

Get Minmatar Industrial 4... the Mammoth is the best T1 hauler for racial industrial <4 .
After that you can either Get Gallente Industrial 5 or Caldari Industrial 5. The Iteron V is has the best cargo for a t1 Hauler, but at this point, Id go for t2 transport ship. The Bustard (caldari t2 transport) has the best tank. The Gallente equivalent can carry more but has no tank without sacrificing a low for a repairer... at which point the bustard carries more.
To sum up: Short term -> Minmatar Industrial 4 Long Term -> Caldari Industrial 5 for safest transport and good
This reflects my opinion as an industrialist, some will disagree. The Impel (Amarr T2 transport) has best cargo with 7 lowslots, but is very very vulnerable and extremely slow. As I was a 0.0 Miner, I needed some protection in case Id be ganked, which is why I went Caldari. Besides, the Charon has the best cargo of all freighter :D

Might as well stick with Minmatar for Mastodon / Prowler / Fenrir (all of them very good). Mastodon is just a little worse at tank and cargo space than Bustard, but faster and better looking. ;-)

indeed. while the minmatar T2 haulers are not as spacey as the rest, it is true that there is nothing faster than them. -------

It sounds like it would be worth my while to get Minmatar Industrial up to 4 but it's actually Caldari rather than Gallente which would be better long term. It is tempting to just stick with Minmatar for Transports, I do a little bit of everything so the reduced time to get Minmatar Transports vs. Caldari might be a better deal for me. How would you rate the Minmatar Transport options compared to those of the Caldari? If there isn't a major difference I might just stick with Minmatar.

Bustard cannot break 25k m3 for ship assembly arrays, unless T2 cargo expanders are released. Itty V and Amarr/Gallente heavy transports are the only ships that can reach that mark currently.

seen some of those on market allready ;)
galante has biggest T1 indy, but minmatar have 2nd and 3d biggest(I think, not 100% sure) and mammoth(2nd biggest) only needs lvl4 indy, not 5 so faster to fly.
T2 hauler, amar can carry most(Impel with 7 lows) though you wont be going very fast once patch hits on tuesday. But at least you can move then, right now impel with 7 cargobay extenders isnt able to move at all. .
and minmatar have the best looking industrials, mammoth is pretty, and wreathe/prowler wont get you to your location with a lot of cargo, but theye will get you there fast. And definatly gets you the most chicks
