I found the fog lights and tyre chains useful to help in the very frequent bad weather. All depends how soon you expect to upgrade your truck.

Mark, yes Battruck, the HR guy there is pretty efficient so you should be accepted forthwith!

When is it worth upgrading the truck? What choices do you have, just the three when you first started or are there more?

 

[MrB]

Go to Game Statistics and look at the Truck Lot. There's loads. I'm on my third truck now, resale values are good. Just remember to sell your items and repair before you sell your truck.

As I waited until I had joined the company I found I had bigger selection. I guess it depends on the money you have available and once you join a company you get to use the company discount. :D

So what do I need to buy again B?

I have new tires (tyres) and know about chains but what other stuff did you recommend on the Stockport Express??

Chains and Fog Lights to improve speed in bad weather plus air filter, fuel filter and fuel injectors, all improve fuel economy and stack up when you purchase all three. My truck does 7.10 mpg but with the three items it stacks to 9.27. Company now has an item discount so all items are 10% cheaper.

Been a lack of contracts recently and the one they won today is stuffed as there are no cities supplying gasoline. I'm sticking to this for now:

Budapest to Bucharest - Paper
Bucharest to Warsaw - Cotton
Warsaw to Budapest - Construction Equipment

All demanded by each City so not a bad rate. Probably better routes out there but that is convenient to where I am on the map right now. Hopefully we'll get a contract tomorrow and I'll be back in Budapest so reasonably central when we know where to go.

bugger, why isnt the website working... need to be in Lyon by 10!

 

[MrB]

It's back online.

 

[Davros]

Grr, got fined $50 and lost my rep points for being late! Hardly my fault! You know anyway to get them back B?

Also very unlikely to get to London now, as am not at home tonight, and earliest my truck can make it is 11pm, maybe 10pm if i take him to 11fp , and i bet Lumber isnt available tomorrow morning!

Fancy doing some late night driving for me B?

 

[MrB]

No probs you dirty trucker.

 

[MrB]

Logged in but as you were FP 11 I assume you managed to get on!

Yeh, managed to get to London on 14fp and hook up to go to Venice.

Logged on this morning and done 4 legs, then had a random failure! nice

Good little route they got going now, should earn quite a few bucks tomorrow!

Just emailed the admins to ask for my $50 for being late yesterday

 

[Davros]

Good to see SZ get a mention on the CB radio!
