One of the reasons the game is still popular is that SCS Software engages their users, keeps the game updated and constantly updates the maps (for free), as well as provides new DLC maps on a regular basis to expand the world. They license real trucks and trailers, and have great cooperation with these companies to make them as authentic as possible. The game also has a huge modding base. But at it's heart, it's the experience of driving a big truck around Europe, and it's incredibly immersive.
If you'd rather drive an American big rig on the Interstate, American Truck Simulator is equally as good, and are expanding the maps constantly (going west to east, they're up to Nebraska)

Been a receiving forklift driver for 10 years. The longest I've seen a truck take to back in was a Swift driver who took 45 minutes. We have a very large lot with lots of room to maneuver. We occasionally get new truckers who take 10-20 minutes, but it was quite something to watch a truck go back and forth for 45 minutes.

Just a tip from a 7 year trucker. Currently hauling jet fuel.
The only thing Iāll gripe about (Iām holding back, lol) is the brakes arenāt ābackwards.ā Push to release, pull to apply the brakes.
Also, when backing. Hold your hands at ā9 and 3ā and lift the hand that you want the trailer to move to. Want the trailer to move left? Lift your left hand. Shorter the wheelbase, the more twitchy the trailer will be. This also works better when you donāt have the wheel in an exaggeratedly flat position like you guys did, haha. Iād say normal is about 45Ā° or less.
Keep on truckinā.

Trucker fun facts:
1. It is VERY hard to stall, you dont use the throttle while letting out of the clutch. Even on hills.
2. The pee jug thing is actually pretty common
3. Police dont need a reason to pull you over, they can literally decide to just pull over blue trucks because its Tuesday.
4. Generally speaking, we can only be inspected/cited by state certified police, which is pretty much only state police, so if you see a sherriff ignoring a speeding truck, its because he cant do much.
5. When using an engine brake, the truck engine doesnt burn fuel, so technically the engine isnt running while theyre activated.
6. Truck brakes have springs that keep the brakes applied, they need air to push back on the springs to release, and another flow of air to push against THAT supply to brake. So if an air system fails on a truck, all of the brakes are set. No air = no move.
7. Seriously we pee in pop bottles sometimes
8. Typical truck transmissions have 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, or 18 gears.
9. Truck tires are typically inflated to 105 to 110psi
10. Semi trucks routinely achieve 1 million miles, some well over 2 million.

Years ago I built a ridiculous fanatec sim rig for iracing with the best pieces you could get at the time (~8years ago).. one day I'm sitting in the living room downloading American Truck Simulator thinking it'd be a stupid little game to tinker with for a few hours... we'll as the download finished, a buddy came over (it was a Thursday) with Costco pizza and 40s. I was playing and showed him the game... "dude you want to drive trucks and drink 40s?" And so we did... after a few hours there were 3 or 4 of us building a trucking empire... drinking 40s, flipping trucks, running stoplights, failing to back up trailers... having a good time...
From that day forward we had a regular Thursday hangout that we called "truckin and 40s". The trucking never stopped. Those were the glory days š

Some real life Euro Truck Sim fun:
- Use the pedal shifters for your turn signals. You dont use the pedals anyway. Game Changer, as the young kids say.
- It is really hard to stall a truck
- Configure the ingame radio with real (online) stations, or just use any online radio you feel like.
- European trucks do use automatic gearboxes since the dawn of time in the 2000s but it is sometimes fun to use the H-Shifter and try to revmatching floating gearchanges.

European trucking facts: actually virtually all modern trucks in Europe are on automatic transmission (for EU people: in the US they literally almost always use manual which is an interesting contrast to cars). Oh and typically there's a 90 kph (~56 mph) limiter (for EU viewers, in the US trucks can go as fast as 110 km/h on interstate and more, basically just like cars). Also, the parking brake in EU trucks is typically a small handle or a button sort of similar to what you'd find in a car, not a standardized yellow colored pull/push thingy like on US trucks.
