Collect a trailer with a couple of tractors they said! It was close, but I wiggled round and got out with no incident. Overnight (and day) run from Milan to Wien with a kip near Salzburg.



Just dropped the trailer in Wien, Austria - limited for jobs from here, all relatively low value.

Relatively low value in this game still means about 12 -15 times what you would get in real life.

Back to trucking lately. Got 3 DAFs running now, 2 hired drivers. Needs moneys to upgrade the garage. Still paying off that loan...


Another cargo in Britain.


Coming off the ferry.


Done and done.

Is there actually any advantage in having a 3 axle truck in the game or is that just looks?

Bit more stable it seems. Haven't rolled a 6-wheeler yet, or jack-knifed. Braking seems better too.

Haven't rolled a 4x2 either for that matter, but got darn close once.

Not a livery mod that's for sure. Get rid of Posped, et al, swap for some real companies - same for filling stations, get Shell in there.

Hmmm, not played this for a while . . .

I don't run mods in general. Saves me a ton of headaches and the pleasure of missing out on a lot of truly mediocre content.


Though the cosmetic stuff I don't mind. Might get the real companies in there. Then again, why bother? Never pay attention to that anyway... The hell do I care what the companies are called?

After seeing the screenshots in the Other Game's Screenies thread I demo'ed then subsequently bought it.
Using the Total Realism Project modpack at the moment,lot's of cool features in it,there's one that on game startup ,goes online to check up to date European fuel prices and put's them ingame,very nice touch but expensive

The boss's truck :

That site (without joining, at least) doesn't tell you much about it so this is from the SCS blog -

Today we would like to present you with a microscopic glimpse into what we hinted earlier - our long standing devotion to Euro Truck Simulator 2 evolution.

World of Trucks's ultimate goal is creating an environment where you - our community - can meet, interact and compete with each other in the expansive trucking world.

Shortly after the next patch we intend to release yet another game update, which is currently in deep testing. This update will enable some new features in the game, slightly extending its functionality.

This is only a very early stage of a whole new beginning. We'd go as far as calling it - an early alpha of WoTr. Please bear with us, keep your expectations modest, but positively stretched, for a very long journey into the World of Trucks.
Keep on Truckin'

I have been some what interested in this game for a while and it just so happens that it is on sale over a Gamers Gate so I went ahead and bought the base game.

You can also get the Eastern Europe expansion and Gold Edition(base game and expansion all in one) as well.Sale ends in 11 hours so if you are thinking about this game or want the exapnsion now is the time to buy.

Base game is $8.50 Eastern Europe is $9.50 Gold Edition is $17.50.

Looking for mods like the one that adds real logos.Things like that.
