New Ship Suggestion, Zorgon Peterson Explorer Class

[Arksun]

I like the idea of a dedicated Zorgon Peterson exploration ship. When I first sat in a Hauler I quickly fell in love with it. It's a very decent ship and feels very homey. I liked it so much that I still have it and use it very regularly. Sadly the Asp is objectively the slightly better exploration vessel but as the OP said it just doesn't feel as nice. (Though I have to disagree about the engine noise. It's different but to me it's as full of character as the Hauler's.)

So having basically a Hauler but with a few more internal slots and a very slightly increased jump range (let's say just above 30 ly with basic shields and all D modules) would be a dream come true. The ship doesn't even need to be as good as the Asp, just close to it and with Zorgon Peterson's interior style to really make it feel like home away from home.

Ideally I'd like to at least match the Asp in terms of jump range, large fuel tank and ability to load that huge fuel scoop as well, but just with some creature comforts so I'm less likely to get home sick

Cupholders REPRESENT!

I agree the Adder is full of character, and in fact is better than asp at scanning because of the better maneuverability rating in supercruise. I would love a pure exploration ship from ZP (e.g. no hardpoints for weapons, big utility mounts for scooping, etc.)
