Going north

March 26, 2022

After having accepted to do a delivery to the end of civilization, I sort of found myself taking ad photos in a Canadian sand pit. Seriously, Promods Canada offers some really nice scenery and looong winding gravel roads to get there.

Then however I got back to civilization and had to spend more time sitting in a queue again. But at least even here the scenery sort of made up for it.

ETS2 Iberia DLC released

ETS2 Iberia DLC released

April 8, 2021

The latest DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2 which adds Portugal and Spain to the driveable map is released today. And since the Iberian peninsula isn’t exactly small, this means that the driveable area has got a pretty big increase. Pretty is perhaps also a good word to use to describe the visual side of the expansion. SCS has really become good at what they do. The screenshots and videos we’ve got to see clearly shows that the ETS2 has come quite a long way from its beginnings!

As of today the latest US state map for American Truck Simulator is released and it’s possible to start driving on the other side of the Continental Divide.

Colorado brings a bunch of new cities and transport destinations like gold mines and wind turbine factories.

The intrepid trucker can also now haul cargo along the Million Dollar Highway. A route as scenic as it is challenging as it snakes along steep mountainsides with, well, limited safety measures (look Ma, no guardrails!).
