YES IT'S BACK thank you Jeff as an Australian this warms my heart and considering where this map is located it's about 200km away from my home town and we do the thank you thing but we do it like right blinker left right left
Man, that truck must have been built on a Friday, someone put the steering wheel on the wrong side! Ok, that's my terrible joke of the day done... 😂 Seriously tho, it blows my mind how good these mods for ATS have gotten! Just getting back into it myself after investing in a Thrustmaster T248 and shifter and have been blown away by how realistic you can make the game look and feel now!
You mean the right side of the truck
Definitely the right side 🇬🇧
At first I thought jeff was driving on the wrong side of the road and then I remembered it's Australia 🇦🇺

Hi Jeff, if you want to drive like a local here are some tips. Where there are no lines on the road, come up onto the crown of the road, i.e. drive down the middle of the road and move over when necessary. Our roads are crowned to shed water, so driving on one side means you are leaning to the left, which makes the trailers move around a lot more, it's dangerous and uncomfatable. It's also much safer for braking. When someone wants to overtake you, do not move over. You will drop your left wheels off the bitumen and throw a cloud of dust, rocks and all types of shit everywhere and they won't be able to pass, you will also break the windshield of every vehicle behind you. Keep your wheels on the road and when it's safe for them to pass put your right indicator on so they know it's safe to go around. If you are on smaller roads, especially access or remote dirt roads, you can run a fourth trailer. It's common to run an extra trailer (or three) up to a main road so you, or a second driver won't have to come back so far for your second load. Finally, road trains are not rare around here. People are used to them and most locals know the deal. Just do you, and most of the time they will move around you. Watch out for tourists and caravans! Enjoy nothingness. Also, we pronounce the U like 'you' ('mewsic' not 'moosic') so those town names are even harder to say than you think...
Do you flash your lights to let other drivers know when it's safe to pull in front after overtaking? He said that it was only an American thing but I have found truckies to be the most considerate on the road, will let you know when it's safe to pull in front and if you do the same in return you always get the left, right and then left flash from the blinkers to thank you. Definitely not an American thing, more of a courtesy and polite thing to do..
Yes always. Flash to let them know the back of the last trailer is past and they can move back in. Then left, right, left, single flash to say thanks is traditional for areas where radios are not common. Out here we are almost always talking to each other on the radio so you see it less. @@Matty12787
I actually grew up with a classmate that came to the US from Australia, it was great while it lasted.
roadtrains can overtake, they even overtake other roadtrains, they co-ordinate over cb so the driver ahead can tell them when it's clear since they are so far back and will need to spend over a minute in opposite lanes to get around
Would be good to do with Convoy
Channel 40 mate it's an Aussie thing
Looks amazing Jeff! I live a bit North of there, those graphics look so awesome, and quite real tbh.
That truck sounds so good! 🤤 Great video as always Jeff.
We do say thank you with the indicators in Australia
OMG i remember playing the first beta for this map, wow im happy the Rob has been updating this
Amazing drive on the out back map
This was an impressive video Jeff. Good work on the mods and I love the truck. Keep up the good work with the videos you do
This is randomly just what I needed. I don’t even play this or drive trucks but it’s nice to watch
Absolutely amazing Jeff. Thankyou for showing trucking from my beloved homeland. In my part of Australia that’s actually a B-triple and would be wearing the “Long Vehicle” signs. I see these setups on the road a lot.
I just go off of google images and a lot of the b triples I have seen have the road train signage
@@jfavignano It’s very confusing in my state as some of the other states consider it as a road train but in South Australia the authorities classify it as a long vehicle, thus the long vehicle signs. It was even very confusing for my some of my family who were truckers that drive the massive beasts
@@antarcticvikingIts only allowed on a Type 1 route. Therefore is a roadtrain. Can do a dollar
@@antarcticviking in south Australia a b triple needs road train signs i drive one at times :D its a length thing not a combination
It’s always cool to see another ATS video. Hope you’re doing well Jeff, keep up the great work and have a great day!
Bro this actually looks like an Australian road this is super realistic even the highway patrol cars look real. Love your work Jeff keep posting Australian trucking vids this is awesome dude
Hi Jeff. Thank you so much for showing us this game. I started playing it about 4 months ago and I LOVE IT. It is actually a nice way to just relax.
Awesome video Jeff! Absolutely amazed seeing you drive on the map, can't wait too see you take the ferry from Cooladdi to Straylia map.
Little info for people that might have some questions from the video ❤;
That entire route 14 is getting a revamp soon, since it's an older road, and be continued from Cooladdi all the way to Quilpie soon. + Lot more Australian AI vehicles.
The Victoria part is entirely work in progress, but I have let that in for players that are eager to take a little peek there.
Hey m8 you’ve done so well with this! I drive a b triples every now and then from gatton Qld to Clermont. Would be wild to see that intergraded in there one day! Keep up the good work 🤙🏼🤙🏼
@@willnewing4240 thanks man!! Who knows what the future will bring
My absolute favourite custom map, your work is phenomenal
@@willnewing4240 I know Gatton very well, would love to see that too!
When ever I try play the two maps together straylia is v2.2 and outback map is 5.1, the game crashes when ever I try to visit Norseman truck dealer with no other mods
This reminds me of Outback Truckers. Top notch content!!
I live in Queensland where your discovering that map so cool to see you enjoying it Jeff 😎
Great video like always Jeff!
Love to see the old ATS just got done playing myself have a good day/night jeff.
Hey Jeff, awesome video as always, and was great to see in my home of Aus. One thing I thought I'd mention is with the t610 you're driving, and all of the bigger Aussie Kenworths we have here, they are all pretty much running Cummins X15 engines. The Paccar engines are used for smaller Kenworths that are doing local runs. Though they do run the Paccar engines in Daf's and the higher HP engines do run B-Doubles. But yeah just thouyght I'd mention it to add a bit more realism for your next aussie run, and also the X15's sound a lot better than the Paccar's haha.
hi Jeff I am a Road Train Driver in Western Australia and i have to say the roads are not as smooth in real life for instance most dirt sections are corrugated and the seal bitumen are full of pot holes and if driving a triple the last trailer tends to be a pain but happy to see our profession make it to ATS
Yeah that road looks smoother than an F1 track. I think he is getting bumps in his rig though.
I tell ya mate, outback trucking is for every trucker in reality, the outback can cost ya more then ya truck, it fries your truck out there & have seen trucks with tyres that have melted, radiators cook so easy, it’s a challenging job for a trucker as you’re mostly alone out there & will rarely come across another truck or human, if your truck shits it then you better hope you got enough water & food for the next few days till someone can get out to ya to help repair or tow your truck! :) love the vids mate, one thing us Aussie & many Americans I feel agree with, kenworths & macks are some of the toughest manliest trucks you can drive & buy 😂
I love the sound of the engine.
Kenworth Australia which operates freely from its parent company PAACR makes the most toughest Kenworths and some of them will have 15 to 29 years with some trucking firms.
The old Vic Police Holden Colorado Divvy vans went so hard.
I’m from the U.K. but always enjoy you doing the Aus stuff (and enjoy driving it too, although occasionally wish the scale was more like 1:10 or even 1:5 - but the detail Rob puts in is incredible)
This is actually crazy the fact that I’ve been on some of these roads I love This jeff thank you, I actually used to work out of Charleville
I think American truck simulator looks like such a nice game to play .
It is, I play it everyday for many hours
Oh it is
It is
ATS and ETS2 are so much fun and relaxing.
If you have a decent PC, it is. Otherwise, it's a stuttering glitchy unrealistic nightmare, lol
You make this look easy, I'd never be able to make the super precise turns even with a wheel like you do. You're the King of Truck sims. 😎
You can do it!
got this map yesterday and did gameplay of it today have to say this is very dam cool and look forward to see where this project will go so want more of my home Country now but know its better to take time to get it right.
Finally Jeff is in Australia! Hello from Sydney!
You should really make a video on the Jeep mod, perfectly sits in American and Australian environment
Hey jeff sorry I haven't commented in a while, ages really tbh, but b4 this vid has even started, dude, u made me, been waiting for this 4 ages & as a Aussie who watches outback truckers on 7mate I'm so glad this exists
But yeah have a great Christmas mate and keep safe 👍
Hey Jeff FINALLY found a free winter snowy weather mod the other day and so happy that I have a snow mod FINALLY for ATS
These videos are so relaxing
I think its 62mph (100Kph) because that's the open road speed limit in Australia the same as here in New Zealand.
Depending on how the road is graded and in what state. A vast majority of our highways are 110 kmh (68mph) however a lot of large companies are mandating their fleet are restricted to 90 kmh (55mph) for fuel and maintenance savings.
Seeing as the vast majority of heavy vehicles are owner operated, they choose their own speed up to the max each state allows.
Some highways in the NT are 130 kph or 80 mph.
love the truck videos jeff!
I've been to Australia multiple times and every time I would not want to go back to the US! Such a great country enriched with wilderness! Now make a video on a Jeep tackling those trails in the wild!
The name on the back of that trailer is actually where I am from. Echuca, Victoria. Pretty cool to see a local company’s trailer in an American game🤙🍻
Good video Jeff keep it up ❤
I recently moved to a city in far north Queensland Australia and i basically see a bunch of road trains on the roads, ive seen some that have had 5 trailers
Seeing these roads in a video game is amazing, after the success and enjoyment of had alot with american truck sim, i hope they make an aussie truck mod, but with this guys continued progress they wont need to
Much love keep it up 👍
I watched one of the American Truck Simulator episodes last night from 2020 and it was about the Frosty Winter Mod from the State Line of California and Oregon to British Columbia and you said a thing called "You Christmas Crap" when that Coca Cola took you of the highway. Funny
it cracks me up hearing foreigners pronounce Australian towns
Same when you try to pronounce American towns
good call 😂@@jfavignano
To answer your question, most countries do the flash of the hazards to say thank you - here in Australia trucks and people who know how trucks work thank each other with left, right, left indicator flash. The remainder of the population spend most of their time flipping each other the bird.
Keep up the content I love your videos 💖💖
Great vid jeff
That intro tho @0:05 almost smashed those 2 Roo's like I smashed that like button 💥👍😁🤣😂👻
nice road trip
The company on the trailers is based in my home town love to see it
Awesome video 👍😀
AWESOME VIDEO JEFF
looks awesome!
14:47 cinematic shot was pretty awesome.
I noticed that this is set in Queensland but the police car that overtook you at the start, is a western australian police car lol, other than that, great video mate!
GDAY jeff nice to see the land down under from the land down under ...
Hey mate thanks for checking out the Mod wish we could have finished it but shit happens
It’s cool that they put the drivers seat on the Australian side
Jeff favorite game played in the world american truck simulator best guy in his work again.
Hi jeff awesome video
This might make me download this game again. 😂😂
We have to see a series of trucking down under
Love this ats videos Jeff
DAMN YOU JEFF! I got excited and thought it was Truck World: Australia
One day
Letting someone know they can bring it back in by flashing lights is a thing here in Oz mate. Thanking them is usually either a quick flash of Hazards to Left, Right, Left of the indicators. It is used around the Cities a bit but mostly on the open roads, it seems to be a dying thing as a lot of younger Truckers are not that courteous.
Would be almost hell to think if the map would have been made 1:1 scale looks awsome
hello man amazing video
Thanks for the visit
Awesome vid jeff could we see some customisation for this lovely truck?
Morning from Australia Canberra
Spending time with family on Christmas
Gotta say hello to the moo-moos!
Randall!?!? There’s a cow outside!!!!
I used to live in a town a couple of hours from Charleville. I miss it but I don’t miss the heat lol 😂 Jeff you should listen to the song Charleville by Slim Dusty cuz that’s all I was thinking when watching this 😂
Yeah now where taking kenworth road trains baby that’s real trucking
The ute at the end is a holden Colorado in the divisional van config
Nice B-triple love seeing the Aussie stuff but still on the small side for where I am in AUS lol I get Triple and Quad road trains and B-quads ( difference between a b-trip b-quad to a traditional road train is the b-triple has the 2 smaller a trailers then the bigger b trailer at the back a traditional road train is the b trailer/the large on this one and it’s 3 of them connected via dollys)
It’s funny, technically the b triple isn’t a real road train 😂
@willnewing4240 😂 get your facts right little boy I've been driving trucks in Australia for 24 years B triples are road trains 😂
Yeah it is always a battle when I do anything Aussie because people don’t think I take two seconds to google these setups haha
@@The_Aussie_Truckie brother I drive b triples. Of course I know they are road trains. But because they don’t run a dolly you always get the die hards saying they technically aren’t trains. You understand where I’m coming from
cool jeff
I had no idea this existed!! As an Australian I’m way more interested in getting ATS now. Does anyone know, does the map cover the any of the West coast or just East? (Yes I realise that’s very far)
(If this is answered later in the video I’m sorry, I don’t have much time to watch or research but I will be back)
Think it needs the centre line most aussies roads have centre line etc or fog line . But awesome
Cool!
i cant wait for my head tracker wife got me 1 for christmas
SCS needs to make Australian Truck Simulator
JEFF IN THE LAND DOWN UNDER AWESOME BOSSSSSSS MAN😁😎😎😎😎😎😎😎💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
yes
I love the WA towns in SA 😜
Feels weird seeing you drive on the right side of the truck and the left side of road.
Typical american mindset
Typically a b triple, what your driving is Typically mate any thing oversize less then 3.8 but more then 3.3, without escort or road train must adhere to 90kph. Oversize with escort is 80 kph and then anything b-double and below are 100kph. Just thought I'd through my IRL experience in their.
great content, is the map available for download or purchase
Let me translate some for you haha

Great work Jeff :)
💪💪💪
❤❤
You should go to Mitchell in Queensland that’s where my dad was born I saw it on the map
Jeff, what other countries do you plan or are planning on driving in ATS?
Hey Jeff, what settings do you use for your track ir. Just got one my self and have a bit of a struggle trying to get the settings right
Would love to hear tire screech in ats
You heard it here in this video
@jfavignano Yeah I know, but it's not in the main game, is it? If it is, I must have that setting off or something cuz ive never heard it!
When you accelerate do you push the Pedal all the way down?
I love playing this game drunk. its hilarious. I also turn cops off shhhhhhh.
Hey Jeff, what do you use to free look around? Only think I can think of is your wearing a quest type VR helmet or some sort of eye tracking but I genuinely don’t know how that would work
Track IR
What is the link to the pack R ms13 engine mod?
