For whatever reason, SCS makes engine sounds per truck instead of by engine. If you use mods such as Kreichbaum (whom is very popular around here), you will notice his sounds are per engine and can be put to any truck. SCS really should change this up and do it per engine so that its more consistent. 7 truck models could run a Cummin X15 and that same sound could be used for all 7. Instead we could get 7 different X15 sounds. Each truck varies due to interiors yes but the baseline should be to start with the same X15 motor. I use X15 as an example. Not all models will share a common engine though. Some have proprietary engines.
Well, you´re right about that, as i´ve noticed myself. i almost forgot, that it was the case with practical every Truck ingame. i have to admit i´ve been using Kriechbaum´s Modpack for a long time now...

Anyway, i already wondered why it is like that ever since.

on the other side, the new VNL´s engine sound is by far one of the best, since the Kenworth T680 got it´s "new" (current) one a few years back.

i had a 860 with the iShift 12-speed and 455Hp on a quickjob and the load was around 33.000lb and i still managed to go beyond 75mph with ease, so yeah it must have been the speed limiter 😉 i like to test the new trucks in general, when they come out. 😀

Guys is there any chance to disable the blindspot detector in the new model? It's making me crazy that it even does the loud ringing when i'm standing on a far right lane, wanting to turn right but there's a wall or lantern or other object next to me.

So i'm waiting for the guy in front of me getting his green signal and have the constant warning sound on because my right turning signal is on and there is something parked right next to me...

if you dont use blinkers, it wont set it off. it is tied to the blinker

you shouldnt have a blinker on while sitting stationary in a turn lane anyway. IRL pet peeve.
when potholes and winter?
