I think you mean vocational truck, not professional truck. All commercial trucks can be considered professional with the type of training they require to operate them.

Freightliner, Western Star, International, Volvo, and MACK all have only one model, while Kenworth and Peterbilt already have two models to choose from. Now let’s see if the scs software will be available before September Which of the five brands, Freightliner, Western Star, International, Volvo, MACK, has added a second model?
Hopefully in the future America Truck Simulator will add these trucks: Freightliner 122SD/Century/Columbia/FLD/Cascadia/Coronado, Kenworth T800/T880/W990,Volvo VNX740, International HX520/ ProStar, and MACK Pinnacle, MACK Titan.

I wouldn’t wonder if Peterbilt or Kenworth gets a third model before others get a second one.

^That is the million dollar question. They have the oldest models in the game yet has the latest truck releases.

I keep envisioning an SCS teaser video where 6 garage doors miraculously reveal 6 shadowed rigs. I'm living in a fantasy world, of course, but sheesh, wouldn't that be quite the tease?

I had a close dream that both old and new cascadia comes in same time but nope...

^Lmao. Ikr. I had that dream once or twice myself. I thought it had a chance. But I honestly think the old VNL complaints ruined that for us all. I would have been perfectly fine with the old Cascadia being the last low quality truck in ATS. I still prefer to use my W900 despite all the new trucks that are out. Most people wanted the old Cascadia with the new modeling and that didn't help I am sure. That truck was the last truck on the 2016 licensing blog that we did not get and I honestly think SCS didn't want to deal with the backlash of complaints of the quality difference considering we got the Lonestar and later the Anthem. The Old Cascadia had no chance at that point.

Something about the classics that I just can't shake. I really like seeing my hood and sitting low at the same time. The W900 is the only one that I connect with. The Pete is cool but its just not me. I'd like to see how the 5700 and the 122SD work for me though. Heck, even the 4900 might work. If we get it, that would be the best quality classic in the game.

If we are talking about the aspect of having trucks to suit ideal categories with HH, highway and vocational then with International makes even more sense to have the HX then the LT as the HX meets all 3 of these categories while the LT only meets 1.

Plus apart from the new VNL and the Next Gen T680 and 579 I rather truck wise they have the variety between Aero design and modern classic design like the 122SD, W990 and the HX styles to have more options for players. I'm not into Aero design trucks and don't use them but modern classics I am and I know alot of others are as well so there is enough interest include them too at some point perhaps in some cases even sooner and preferred over Aero designed models.

I am now waiting for scs software to push news about Freightliner 122SD or Western Star 5700XE

I love the look of the aero trucks but I don't really want to drive them. The Cascadia is cool and I do have one but I don't drive it often. I am more into wanting the modern trucks for AI traffic more than anything. The current on the road models are all critical to polishing up ATS to depict real life roads for the in production current models. I'd do like the modern classics too. The 49x, the 5700 and then we have the somewhat hybrids with the Anthem and I guess the Lonestar. The Lonestar could also fit in the modern classic perhaps.

Whatever the next truck is though, that would put ATS at 10 trucks and that is a great milestone considering that for the first 2.75 years, ATS was hurting for more trucks. Well SCS turned that corner for the better. I wouldn't be surprised if ATS only got 1 truck this year but 2 should perhaps be the max. I wish we could get one of the models that is half way done and then a model that is from scratch like the new 5700, VNL, 579, T680, 4900 and 122SD. That then puts the Pinnacle, LT, HX, VNX and VNR.
