Oh wow, you destroyed my personal best. I only made it to 7300 one day back in June when I was trying to do 10k in one day xD. I did another 6400 the very next day. That was a long weekend. After that experience I don't think I want to try to do it again lol. I racked up a total of 100k that month, for a grueling 3300 per day average.

That would be a unique challenge, but I would add a rule, it has to be delivered on time, otherwise you could just start a job and then drive around for 3 years xD.

@Reignman What helps me do crazy amounts of mileage in one day is that i have one thumb rule: I never haul something that has less than 1500km in ETS2 and less than 1000mi in ATS. If i do short jobs i'll be wasting a lot of time driving through cities, parking way more often than needed and staying on restrictive roads that are not very good for doing over 60mph.

Edit: Just now i noticed i tagged the wrong user .......... 😐

That's probably what I did wrong then lol. I mostly haul triples and doubles, which take a little longer to park than a standard single. I wonder how many miles a person could log in a day if they only did freight jobs, skipped all the parking, and stuck to all the major highways. Maybe I'll find out one of these days haha.

I don't skip the parking and i always go for the hardest one for the sake of realism. Also, i only use external market... Doing offline jobs are not that fun because i like to keep track of my progress/statistics.

I keep track of my own stats via a spreadsheet, but unfortunately I wasn't doing that from the beginning so I only have the last 400 jobs in ATS. I've kept track of everything since the beginning in ETS2 however.

1,000,000 MILES!!!

That's 1,609,344 km to the rest of you haha. I finally made it. Well I actually made it last month, but I've been strictly playing ETS2 since and kept forgetting to come here to brag about a million xD.

The moment occurred right here, southbound on HWY 5 somewhere in California, with my entourage.

Here's the view my wingman had of the milestone.

They had a helicopter in the area to help document the special occasion too.

Can't forget about my northbound fans who showed up to briefly celebrate too.
