Many will say the Charon - simply because it's the biggest. Personally I prefer the Providence because it is a Rebel Transport. --

The Charon has the largest cargo capacity, but the Obelisk is the easiest to train for as most dedicated haulers already have the Gallente Industrial skill to level 5 to fly the Iteron Mk. 5

Charon, cause its horizontal.

Caldary one for size, assuming you will have a lot to trasport.
Minmatar one for 'speed' (if you can use that word for freighter), as most of the time you will not have full load so might as well save those few seconds on each warp.

If you haven't already got Industrial V in a particular race go for Caldari. ___________________

While it is not the largest, the Obelisk (Gallente freighter) has the advantage that you also will train up Gallente Industrial to level 5, which means you can fly an Iteron MkV. The advantage of that is that it is the largest industrial ship... for those times when you don't want or can't use a freighter you might find an Itty V very helpful (e.g.: as a hauler on a mining op).
If all that matters to you though is pure carrying capacity of the freighter then the Caldari one is the largest.

The Minmater one for sure. It looks like a Sandcrawler, and since you'll probably use it to haul around junk for trade...

good responses guys, I still can't decide which one i want! the minmatar hauler appeals to me becuase it warps faster, but I also want to be able to use a itty 5... Though when i am hauling im gonna have a corpie webing me for insta warp so maybe I should go with the caldari one.

Edited by: Random Caldari on 31/05/2007 16:30:01 Caldari has largest hold by a small amount Best if you intend to do super huge loads
Minmatar is the fastest Best if you dont think you will need full load capacity on most runs
Amarr has the most normalised hit points by a small amount. Best if you think you might get suicide gank attacked. Although difference as stated is not that large and a professional suicide gank will get you regardless imo.
Gallente has largest industrials in its training path.
The differences between the freighter is fairly small tbh , I would train the one you can train to easiest. |

Providence is the best as someone previously stated -> Rebel Transport ships ftw. ---

Another reason the Obelisk is so popular is the sheer amount of hull it has.

Nah, the charon is ugly, its flat.
Obelisk, as most good haulers will already have an iteron 5 so its fast training from there, its the 2nd biggest, it looks the best.
Obelisk is the best looking, then providence or fenrir each look good in their own way, then charon.

Heh, and you find one with Calamari Cruiser (Hel BPO) plans inside and you suicide it with a fleet of Carrack Cruisers (Stabbers) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
