    Awesome MOD compilation for American Truck Simulator! Business and vehicle simulation games have always intrigued me. I feel the liveliness of ATS. I like how it’s not really a complete rip-off of Euro Truck Simulator 2. The different cities kinda boosted the game in a good way. It’s great that this game now comes with neat mods.

    Thanks for sharing!
