General Comments

This is my favorite truck simulator. It simulates a life of a real truck drivers.
You start your career as employee in a company, drive wherever the boss will schedule you.
After collecting 100,000$ you can switch to owner operator mode, your rating will rise for successful cargo delivery, it will give you an option to haul more expensive cargoes.
When you will reach some rating, you will be able to become a company, buy additional trucks, hire drivers, schedule them cargoes.
You will be able to drive in America, Mexico and Canada.
During your journey you will have to fix your truck, fuel it up, also you can buy it additional accessories, paint, engine, transmissions upgrade and even downgrade it.
After locating a truck dealer, you can buy truck of its brand.
More than 10 trucks you can drive, including Peterbilt (379, 387,...), Kenworth (W900L, T100, T2000), WesternStar (LowMax - unfortunately only with up to 420hp engine), International (Eagle...), Freightliner...
You can also swap yourself with other drivers that are working on you.

AI cars are a bit stupid, and sometimes act very silly causing accidents.
In this game are weight stations and hotels, you can choose in what city your office will be.

You pass the game after gaining 10,000,000$ (or 20,000,000$ don't exactly remember), but you can continue to play.
As for truck lover, this game is very addictive, but who does not really like it, may not find this game interesting.
Gameplay of this version is much better that the next version Convoy that has improved graphics.
