Truck setups and you.

[dkasper00]

I'm wondering what people are running as a setup with the truck you're running in game. It is not to judge in any sort of way since it is a game and is to be played to the user's taste.

Not talking paint job, wheels, cabin accessories or since tire ratings are not a thing in ATS, tires. Talking about engine, transmission, chassis, cabin.


I've recently shifted from flatbed/heavy haul to reefer.

I focus on heavy haul and RM doubles in the game, and my ride of choice is the Western Star 49X with the following specs:

• 72” sleeper

• 6x4 with 300 gallon capacity

• 600 HP DD16 with 2050 ft lbs of peak torque

• DT12 OVX transmission

I focus on wandering the game world and couldn't care less what cargo or trailer I end up dragging from one part of the world to the other. I drive a

I commonly use a Peterbilt 579 with a 6x4 chassis, day cab, 450 hp Cummins X15, an 18 speed with a diff ratio of about 2.64. My original setup was the same chassis- and cabin-wise, but before VSTerninus’s Caterpillar 3408 engine pack ceased to exist, I used to run the 450 hp/1460 ft-lbs of torque version of the 3408 mated to a 16 speed transmission with a 3.08 diff ratio.

My original setup was the same chassis- and cabin-wise, but before VSTerninus’s Caterpillar 3408 engine pack literally ceased to exist on the Steam Workshop, I used to run the 450 hp/1460 ft-lbs of torque version of the 3408 mated to a 16 speed transmission with a 3.08 diff ratio, way back in version 1.36 of the game.
