Where can I find good revit cars and revit tree families? I would like them to be used in plan, sections and elevations in small and large scale drawings (with revit fine-coarse detail levels). The sample car and tree families in revit are mainly for 3d drawings, I need to produce mostly 2d drawings. Would be important that these are site and planting families that set into surfaces / terrain and follow the changes in the project. Any suggestions?

I've had some troubles on using revit 3d cars or autocad blocks.Too many lines on the 3d cars, quite heavy. Cad blocks are a quick fix but creates a lot of line objects and are a bit messy in the long run.

I think parametric 2d cars are the best for architectural drawings. Here is a demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBKJdxNRVHk

I haven't yet tried archigrafix trees but seem interesting if they deliver the graphics shown on their website.
