ATS research needed
As some of you already noticed, we set up a few topics in ATS public research. The reason is simple, we'd appreciate some help with the pre-research - especially from those living, working or driving in the areas we plan to add in the future.
As we're an European company, it's pretty easy to miss something really important - trucking wise. Be it a landmark, big truck stop, famous look-out, or scenic road - there is only so much you can find, but also what you can miss. So anyone willing to help with his knowledge, photos or videos (or anything else to help our map designers and graphics) from the states written there, do take a look, please.
Word of warning tho - there's no promise on any timeline, nor in us using all the research we get from you (we still need to fit it into map/ road network - and the decision what goes in there and what doesn't has a great number of aspects).

I'll deal with this later. It's getting late here, but I do have a lot of old videos in some of the aforementioned states.

Re: ATS research needed
I can't be of much help yet, as I have either never been to, or spent little time in those states (I know the road layouts quite well, but no useful specifics). Let me know when you want info on Arkansas, though, as I will be all over that topic!
You may have a hard time keeping up!

Re: ATS research needed
One does not necessarily have to be from (x) state to participate. If you come across any material on the web, youtube or what ever it may be, share it. Obviously people that live in (x) state could be more resourceful, but everyone can help. I have seen some very nice videos on youtube of Montana and Utah that are worthy of noting. Before Oregon came, there were several good videos. A pic is worth a thousand words but a video, imo goes beyond that.
Carthoo, can we get a thread for Colorado. That one was missed. This video needs to be in that thread for I-70. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDgu9Bw3-QA
