Hauler
The Hauler is a light freighter that was designed to give pilots a ship with a sizeable cargo hold for a relatively low price. This is countered by the Hauler featuring only one weapon hardpoint making it very weak in combat.
While it appears to currently be outclassed by the Adder which has a higher maximum cargo carrying capacity and more weapon hardpoints, the Hauler makes up for it by costing less and having a slightly greater jump range which can help kick start a trader's career, especially in the trading of rares commodities.
The craft is also excellent for the early explorer, with it's 4th largest jump range in the game when geared for exploring (28.55LY), it is a very cheap and easy method to get into deep space exploration. If done thoroughly and correctly, this can get new players a relatively large amount of CR quickly.
