The developers have said both sliders full left.

Full left is most realistic however it is not necessarily the best way to play imo. I personally use the sliders halfway. The reason being the game isn't designed for full real settings. The roads are not 1:1 scale to real life so many of the bends are far sharper than they would be. You have to slow down far too much even in shallow bends to not tip your truck over. This is even worse in some of the older areas of the map where realistic physics were not remotely on the developer's mind.

Experiment with the slider settings to see how you like them. I played a while with full left settings but found them too frustrating in the end and settled on the middle setting as feeling most realistic to me.

personally I find that to be tippier than I can enjoy, but that's how the dev's see it. Same comment has been made by other devs in different places.

Thanks! Will keep all that in mind to do my setings.

A good approach might be to go left until the roll on the side accident doesn't seem like it should have happened, go a bit to the right a bit, wash and repeat. If we're not enjoying the game in order to fit the developers' idea of how it should be played we're lost :cozybethesda:
