    I totally forgot that parking options existed. I play mostly in VR, so it's more difficult to fiddle with menus and I set it to "Where do you want it" as the automatic default and turned parking options off. I don't really understand why you'd not want to park the trailer yourself, since you don't have these automatic parking options when pulling into a rest area and you'll need to learn how to maneuver anyhow. Sure, some parking lots are large enough that you don't really need much finesse, but many of them are not and you don't always have much of a choice in the matter.

The bigger and longer wheelbase and The Long Hood i used to play Ets2 alot (over 1000h) what i think wold be useful is to talk about The different drivning styles it takes to drive us trucks vs eroupean trucks like how to take a turn and when to turn the wheel and what you have to think about when you have to reverse into tight spots am just cheering some tips that i know wold help me alot your videos are awsome and keep up The Great work 👌🙂🤗 sorry for my bad english i am from sweden and have dyslexia🚛🚛

    If SCS is watching, they should give you a cut of the purchase. Because of you and this tutorial, I ended up buying the game. I know ETS is suppose to be the same and I got that game for free. But after playing Taxi Life and did not know anything about driving in Spain I decided to get ATS. Plus to follow your tutorial you need ATS as the starting points and of course the trucks are different. So I spent $57.00 I was not intended to. Keep up the good work and SCS, give this man some money!!

    • @AdamsOlympia
      @AdamsOlympia 10 місяців тому +2

      My biggest tip would be put all your points into long distance driving. When that's maxed out, get all the gas/explosives/liquid options, then just-on-time delivery (one point into Fragile/Expensive deliveries until just on time is maxxed) .. Eco driving isn't where the money is, so I save it for when everything else is maxxed.
      The very long tanker deliveries will be where you'll be making big bucks at first -- eventually enough to buy a new truck after each delivery. (my last delivery from Texas to Oregon earned me $230,000) When you buy new truck, send your old one to your garage and hire a driver from the recruiting station to drive it. Don't be afraid to take out a 400-500k loan at bank if you're using it to buy more trucks for your hirelings. They'll be leveling up while you pay it off, which makes you more money in the long run. I also focus my hires on long distance driving at first.

    Maybe a silly question as it concerns the radio, but as a European, these American local radio stations interest me. If you select radio, do you get radio stations from the area you're driving in or will you get a 'fixed' radio station (or even one from the area you live in)?

      Worth it if you buy more than one truck with the 500k and hire some drivers to drive the other 2 trucks. If you just want a truck for yourself, a 100k loan should do the trick for a starter truck -- especially if you save up on a few quick jobs first.

    Hi. This tutorial is great and I appreciate the time you took to make it. My only problem is that I play with a controller -- Playstation 4 -- so I'm still stuck in that respect. I don't know how to transfer t the keyboard commands you used on the controller. And I'm not a gamer by any means. Do you have any kind of tutorial that addresses that situation. Even if it is for an XBOX controller, I could deal with that. I have had the game since December of 2022 and I gave up. The game thinks I played for 8 hours. I never got out of the parking lot. Thanks in advance for any help you can throw my way.

      Hi. I would recommend either the Freightliner Cascadia, or International LT. As far as I recall, they have the best price tag for getting started (aka... the cheapest lol). However, if you prefer a specific truck model, I would recommend working towards that truck. Although in a virtual setting, it would feel more rewarding to customize, purchase, and drive that particular truck.
