Trucks are indeed (based on pretty recent info from the devs) required equipment for certain types of divisions (motorised, for example). In the second-last World War Wednesday, Johan motorised his entire army, and then had to spend a large proportion of his military IC building trucks so they could actually be motorised, it's very cool imo

I think certain support battalions like field hospital and supply also require trucks even if your division is not motorized.

i thought it was they could only be attached to motorized units this changes everything
From my limited understanding even your supply "throughput" i.e. rate at which supply is pushed will depend on the Trucks/Horses, if you use Horse then no need to manufacture trucks but will suffer in "Supply Throughput" but if you use a Trucks based Supply system you better have the BAKU Oil Fields or the TEXAS oil fields to power them.

Trucks are in the game and we can produce them.
In 2014 the devs stated, that there would be no trucks in game and I quess the wiki was not updated.
Supplies could also use horse-drawn columns, although I find hard to imagine that you have to "produce" horses for your supply units!
You gotta get 'em from somewhere. Providing enough horses was a factor in ww2 economics/logistics.Supplies could also use horse-drawn columns, although I find hard to imagine that you have to "produce" horses for your supply units!
