Cars from ETS2 that should be added to ATS

Ford Focus

That Ford Focus was never sold in the US, it would be just as out of place as Ford S-Max is. There are other cars from ETS2 that could be added to ATS but this isn't one of them.

Yes. There is list on the first page here. Especially the ProMaster and the Renegade would be a great addition.

The 2004-2010 model only exists in Europe, NA got a different model to comply with different regulations from 2007 until 2010

I do understand that. Their statement was that the Ford Focus was never sold in the US, which was incorrect....

My statement was "that Ford Focus was never sold in the US" (i.e. second generation), first generation was shared between the Europe and the US, but the second generations were completely different

Anyway, IMO what AI cars should be added (other than some ETS2 ones)
- current gen RAM 1500 since this is probably one of the few American pickups that is quite common in Europe as well and ETS2 lacks any pickup trucks (just please SCS, don't alter it that heavily as the 2 recently added ATS pickups, just slight changes like different bumper or grill bars that are vertical instead of horizontal)

- older Japanese cars like Honda Civic, Japanese cars are definitely underrepresented in the AI (it can be either classic CRX or something mundane like 1999 Civic - I'd like to note here that GTA vehicles like Blista Compact or Blista Kanjo were barely changed, so SCS also probably shouldn't go overboard). That's also something that might be added to both ETS and ATS.

- classic 70s/80s Porsche 911 - that's also something that would fit both games. If SCS wants to alter that car it might be a mishmash of various air-cooled 911s like 930, 964, 993. Also there are many classic Porsche tuners like RWB or RUF so there's a lot of inspiration (in fact, up until recently EA had a exclusivity deal and most racing games had to licence 1987 RUF CTR as a Porsche ersatz - Porsche did not sue anyone over these RUFs despite them sharing 911 body)
However overall the iconic roof and window shape should not be altered, neither should the round headlights (there are slantnose 911s but IMO they're ugly).

Here's for example my idea of a possible mix:
- rear (taillights, etc.) based on 1987 RUF CTR

- front might be based on RUF Ultimate or some RWB

- side could look like Gemballa tuned 911 with Testarossa-like side vents

I think that mixing these 3 or 4 cars would create a vehicle that is distinct enough from a stock 911 while at the same time still being plausible enough in a real world.

The Oklahoma DLC teasers show two new school buses, one's a long rear-engine bus.

Already noticed. But one is to old one?! But looking forward to it anyway

After playing a oversize trip last time I had the idea that it could be nice to add vans as pilot cars as well. They are quite common.

I really hope we get a Prius Taxi for the California rework.
Can't think of San Francisco without one

Also something cool for SF would be a Trolley bus (would be the first in ETS/ATS universe, since we didn't get them in eastern europe)
