Well, from the name of the contest, I guess the author was aiming for a solution based on a proper suspension, but it seems that the rules allow for other methods as well...

Sorry, but I'm not redoing it, I don't like games where the rules are made up on the fly.

If you must, feel free to disqualify me.

Cover means anything above the cargo.
To check the speed I will look at the information menu for the cargo that is still on board, when it reaches the hill I will start monitering. So that means your truck cn go slowly but your cargo must go 3m/s
