American Truck Sim

No, the Jake Brake (or engine brake) is a special unique brand if annoying. It's like a Harley Club coming thru town....

Having to do quick jobs again, as my old profile wouldn't load after the update. The truck in the last pic is just plain horrible.

OK, I'm a big truck sim fan too :-)

So, here's a challenge for you: while you're sharing ATS screen shots, how about doing shots that also have trains or railyards in them? There should be quite a few places where this is possible...

[haverfordwest]

Hiya Nels, post 148 above buddy. The last two piccies

There are a couple of BNSF yards i know of, that i have picked up from and delivered too. So there must be others in the game world.

Lots of delivery points are intermodal yards, so there are trains around. I think I was in Wyoming where one of the delivery points was actually in a rail yard next to a roundhouse. And you quite often run parallel to rail lines or have to wait at crossings so it seems there are lots of possibilities.

[haverfordwest]

One nasty sky and three with trains. I will have to pay more attention, when picking jobs to do Nels. Must be pretty easy to spot the rail related pickups from the company names.

Nice truck/train action :-)

Yes, the intermodal yards are easy to spot by the company name.

Of course in ETS2 there is also a small locomotive available as a cargo.

[haverfordwest]

Thanks Nels, yup agreed about the intermodel yards.

In ETS2 if you use the over sized trailers mod. If i remember correctly there are some loco loads for them.

I love both the truck sims, but i do prefer ATS more but only slightly.

I want the option of the 50-ft motorhome pulling a minivan instead of a truck..... is there a mod for that?

There's been a mod for the in-game Freightliner Cascadia truck that adds a "super C" class motorhome as a cab option. It basically adds an extended frame and motorhome shell on top to the game's default Cascadia. It can't tow anything, though.

The mod is older and hasn't been updated since version 1.4.1 of ATS, so it may or may not work well with the current game version.
