== Weighing Training Time Against How Much You Want to Haul ==

~~A major concern when choosing which race and ship~~ to ~~go for~~, ~~will be how much extra time is required~~, to ~~train additional levels~~ of the ~~racial Industrial skill~~, ~~needed~~ to ~~unlock access to each ship~~.

Up to the June 2013 Odyssey expansion, the Amarr Bestower was the hauler of choice up to Racial Industrial III. With Odyssey 1.0, that changed to the Gallente Iteron Mark V since it became flyable at Gallente Industrial I instead of V. However, as of Odyssey 1.1 in September 2013, the Bestower was once again the top hauler for general cargo. The Bestower carries less specific cargo than the modified haulers with special bays for ore, etc like the [[Kryos]] and [[Miasmos]]. The Bestower is also a good choice if you want to use the tech 1 industrial with the highest possible general cargo capacity in the game.

~~Up to the Odyssey expansion, the Amarr Bestower was the hauler of choice up to Racial Industrial III. As of June 2013, that changed to the Gallente Iteron V since it~~ is ~~now flyable at Gallente Industrial I. If you truly want to maximise your~~ cargo capacity while minimising training, then the Iteron V is the Industrial ship to go for, at all skill levels, as at those levels of training it has the highest possible m<sup>3</sup> for all the industrials. ~~At level 1~~, ~~with about 18 hours~~

Hauling safely is still a concern with all haulers and even though cargo capacities might have increased. For example, the Iteron Mark V lost a mid slot and might be more vulnerable than in the past.

If you don't mind spending the time to train an industrial skill to level IV, then the Mammoth will give you the highest capacity at that training level, and if you don't mind the long train to get a racial industrial skill to V, then the Iteron V ~~will have the highest capacity with that training level. The Iteron V is also~~ a ~~good choice if you want to use the tech 1 industrial with the highest possible capacity~~ in the ~~game, when not using your freighter~~.
