Have a great weekend and thank you to all who have stopped by, read and subscribed to my blog postings. Friday is here and that means weekend! Of course, this is also Valentine’s Day weekend. So while I’m sure you plan to do some trucking over the weekend, don’t forget about your significant other. I…
ATS Mod Review–Paccar Sound
If you are new to ATS or American Truck Simulator, you might also be new to mods. What are mods? Mods are modification files which enhance the base or core game application (in this case American Truck Simulator). I recently wrote a blog post on exactly how to install mods in American Truck Simulator. In…
Truckers Logbook #1
I plan to occasionally document my trucking adventures in the form of a blog post with pictures. I don’t plan to document each and every delivery, but will try to post at least one each week. With this being the first entry, I decided to start at my Company Headquarters of Apache Trucking located in…
American Truck Simulator–My Progress
Just a quick update on my progress so far in American Truck Simulator. Today marks the one week anniversary of the release of ATS and I wanted to share my current progress.

Logitech G27 First Impressions
The invention of the wheel (circa 3500 BC) was an incredible turning point in the history of civilization. The edition of the Logitech G27 setup has also been just as incredible with regards to my game play with Euro Truck Simulator 2. As I had previously mentioned in this blog post, I recently ordered the…
More Courseplay
While the Courseplay mod is perhaps the one mod I almost could not live without, it is not without its share of issues which lead to frustrations “Down on Jerry’s Farm”. Several weeks ago I provided a somewhat detailed review of the Courseplay Mod and pointed out some of the issues which we all must…
My New Truck
It took me a while to get the truck I really wanted to drive in Euro Truck Simulator 2. My new truck is the Volvo FH with the 600 HP engine. The current configuration will change as I earn a little more revenue. I plan to upgrade the chassis, paint and cab to get the…
