Ahhh that would put a happy smile on my face. This is a baddd week for me. I'm swapped and a Texas blog would be a highlight for this week. I think @Bedavd and his minions, lol......I think we have some sites to location on his map, lol. Depends on the type of blog it is though. I was thinking the same thing that its a very quite week this week. A blog is bond to pop up sooner or later this week. It could be Texas or it could be something else...not telling. But Texas does make a lot of sense to me. We got HoR/ETS2...we got the Volvo DLC, Wyoming is out. Only thing is Texas and California. October is around the corner and there is a slight chance that 1.42 preview is in sight if we are to get 1.42 late October. If the update is large enough and juicy enough, we could be testing out something nice.

But, I'll take a Texas blog and the industry @Brendan0620 mentioned is a very interesting thought. This industry is something I mentioned May 2020 when the car industry blog came for Iberia. I remember it like it was yesterday. If things came from my May 16, 2020 post.....that would be a boost to ATS. New depots and another new rail car perhaps. Drake and DeMuro are cool but I'm thinking larger if the industry gets a boost. I'm thinking a Car Max dealership. I think we need that one dealership that is 2-3x the size of what we have. I am leaning more to 3 times but that is a lot more space taken up. But we need to be able to drive thru the lanes on the prefab to a pick up and drop off vehicles.

Law school started up again for me this week and I'm actually on campus now, so I'm a lot busier now. I can barely make it on here to make sure nothing big happened! I likely wont have time when blogs drop to do location hunting, not for quite a while at least, so at most I'll just be picking over what others couldn't find. I'll definitely still put together a list on here like I did with Wyoming and the locations people do find will go onto my map, just not as soon as I had before, sadly.

@Bedavd Law school is temporary, ATS Texas is forever! :lol: I'm just kidding of course

That tow truck is a tease but I am operating under the mentality that it will amount to nothing so I can't be disappointed.

This photo looks like it's on the Gulf Coast. Can't point my finger to where, time to keep searching!
