Hi there. Had a lof of trips with the new toy already. Just getting past 20.000 km's recently. Here's some shots from the last 3 ingame weeks:

First I had a run from Helsingborg down to Ljubljana, SLO. Getting truckspotted on the German A9 somewhere in Thüringen:
Image

Nice landscape in Bavaria, somewhere between Nürnberg and München:
Image

The next morning climbing up and down on some small roads over the Alps in Austria:
Image

Then entering Slovenia by crossing the Karawanken Tunnel:
Image

Unloaded in Ljuljana, took a 9h pause then loaded back to Leipzig in the evening, the next day I'm heading back north on A9, just north of Nürnberg:
Image

Passing by the Leipzig Airport in the evening:
Image

Next morning going over to Taucha in the outskirts of Leipzig to load for Helsinki, quite unusual trip for me. And since it's already close to the end of the week and I'm low on driving hours I decide to take the 1day+ long ferry from Travemünde to Helsinki that way I can have my 24h weekend rest on the ship:
Image

Boarding the M/S Finnstar in Travemünde:
Image

Already onboard, just a final look on the port then start this interesting weekend pause:
Image

After roughly 1,5 days of sailing across the whole length of the Baltic I finally arrive to Helsinki:
Image
Image

Unloaded in the port, then loaded from another company across the city to Göteborg, so I'm heading over to Naantali near Turku to catch another ferry to Kapellskär:
Image

The next day after unloading, drove over to the port to load some fish (what else) to Rzeszów Poland:
Image

After loading I decided to end the day there, so parked up nearby in the ferryports parking:
Image

Next morning, getting ready to start the day, and head down to Ystad to take the ferry to Swinoujscie:
Image

On the S3 in Poland just south of Swinoujscie. This was an all-night run, weather was quite poor too, it rained through the whole night from Swino all the way till around Wroclaw:
Image

Somewhere on the polish A4 around Opole. I drove through the whole night in the rain, but now it's early morning and I still have a couple hundred km's to go to my restplace between Katowice and Kraków, so sipping on my coffee busily:
Image

Getting close to Rzeszow the next evening:
Image

I unloaded in Rzeszow, spent the night there, than went to clean the trailer from all the fish smell the next morning, then loaded canned food up to Mariehamn on the Åland Islands. Quite interesting destination I must say. So a couple of days later, I arrive to Åland going through some cute small roads to my destination:
Image

The next week had a run down to Prague then back to Helsingborg from there, this one is somewhere between Dresden and Berlin:
Image

Arriving to Rostock early morning to take the ferry back to Sweden:
Image

Rainy afternoon in Trelleborg:
Image

On the Yttre Ringvägen part of the E6 near Malmö:
Image

After unloading in Helsingborg my work hours for the day were over so I had to spend the night there, the next morning though I drove back empty to the HQ in Malmö and end the week there:

After almost a year at MTS (and roughly 170.000km's), I made enough money to actually buy my first own truck in this new profile, so it was time to leave Malmö, and establish myself back home in Cluj with this simple yet smooth looking Range T with an 11l 430hp engine and with this quite old plain curtainsider trailer that I lease from nearby trucking company.

My first trip took me from Cluj to Lyon, then from there, up to Köln and then back home:

Love the realism in the shots and the written details, feels like the real diary of a trucker. Keep them coming!

I must say I genuinely enjoy this slightly underpowered 430 hp T. It's quite realistic to have this sort of truck as a starter for an owner operator. Here's some new random pic's from my latest trips (I made roguhly 40.000 km's since the last update so these pics are rather random) :

On the dutch A1, heading home east after an unload in Amsterdam

Image

Entering the Olt's valley in RO, heading towards Bucharest (Sorry my Olt's valley map mod got a bit halted since I lost some interest in it, but right now its just as complete to be possible to cross it but without any landscaping, but I picked it up again recently so expect some progress updates soon...)

Image

Taking a 45 min rest in Suben:

Image

Found a perfect spot in Heilbronn at a Lidl praking lot, for a 9h pause:

Image

In Italy between Ancona and Pescara cruising along the coast:

Image

From there, heading back up north to France trough Switzerland. Towards the I-CH border at Como-Chiasso:

Image

It's pretty hard to get back on the road on this frontier after the paperworks:

Image

Pedal to the metal at 90 kph trough the town of Huedin between Oradea and Cluj in RO: (or at least the town should be in this spot, this is actually my hometown)

Image

Accident in the outskirts of Cluj, near Baciu, probably happened recently as there's no queue yet:

Image

9h pause at Altenburger Land on the A4 in Germany between Chemnitz and Erfurt:

Image

Entering Belgium on a rainy afternoon from Aachen Germany:

Image

In Belgium near Verviers on the E42:

Image

Leaving Orléans after unloading there:

Image

Loading at the Mannswörth OMW plant in Schwechat near Vienna to the Navodari chemical plant in RO:

Image

On the romanian A3 between Gilau and Turda (Cluj bypass):

Image

Arriving to Navodari the nest morning:

Image
Image

Heading back home on the Romanian A2 Autostrada Soarelui, passing the A. Saligny bridge:

Great shots! Love the realism. Do you plan on setting up an entire VTC?

Maybe sometime in the future. It's too much hustle and bustle for now, I remember back in ETS1 days I was in one of those, great memories :)

Anyway. I guess I got a new toy for the company. A used MK1 Volvo FH12 460 Euro 3, from 2001 with 1.750.000 km's, which is pretty good for a 20 year old truck. This is sort of a "project truck", mostly will be used for only national work or maybe shorter international trips since its Euro 3 and road taxes are pretty high for those. I just bought it for pure enthusiasm, and it will be customised eventually:
