Boise City has to be included instead of Guymon it's the one city that connects between Texas state line and Colorado along with New Mexico at a roundabout in town square also it has some awesome lil landmarks!

Such as the the life size long neck Dinosaur just outside of town and the accidental bombing of Boise City OK historical marker, with the little Bomb statue on the sidewalk where the roundabout is. it's one of those small towns that should be apart of the bigger picture imo. It Also has a Loves Truck Stop.. so it would be great to include a hearts there Below is my bit of research online and what I've seen myself in person!

Anyways two great little landmarks!

Also there is a weight station just before entering town.. I forgot about that bugger until i seen it on google.. Oh man yeah this town could really get some love! I do hope some devs see this and check on it for little details it's a great little city to include!

This is the roundabout in the town square where the courthouse sits

Boise can easily be in Oklahoma but that doesn't mean it has to be marked. We can have landmarks for scenic towns as well. Guymon offers a lot more industry wise if its about depots. Depots is the second most important thing in these games behind the trucks. At least one dev likes to think so and I agree 100%. US-54 is the only road that links Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico together and guess where Guymon is........on US-54 with lots of industries. US-287 really only links Colorado and Texas. Without major depots to offer, its not worth stopping in BC other than to rest. At least Guymon you can rest, fuel, pick up and deliver. The game is about transporting goods from one point to another. Anything outside of that is up to the player but the goal is to transport. Without depots and an good diverse selection of them, things gets repetitive and immersion goes down hill for many of us.

I dont know if OK 9 will be included in the dlc but it would be a good connection to Ada or McAlester it also has some cool landmarks below
1. Sam Noble Museum (this is not visible from the highway in real life but still a cool attraction)
[ external image ]
2. National Weather Center (National Severe Storms Labatory) Fun fact every october they have a festival called the National Weather Festival.
[ external image ]
3. Thunderbird Casino (i dont see this being much other than a truck rest stop or scenery)
[ external image ]
4. Jasmine Moran Children's Museum (this would most likely be the last main attraction before it dead ends most likely in Seminole or at the Indian Nation Turnpike it could go as far as US 69.)

WEST OF I35 IS UNLIKELY BUT STILL POSSIBLE AS IT HAS A LOVES TRAVEL STOP OFF THE INTERSTATE
