Yes, you can trade in your old truck by clickting the "trade in" button at the dealer. That will sell your current truck and mods and discount that amount from the price of the new truck.

you can replace modifications if it pleases you.

Giving your truck to an employee is a good idea. I like to drive different trucks too and max them out with everything. But at one point I want to drive one of my older trucks and then I just swap them out.
Once you trade a truck in, it's gone forever. But give it to an employee and your old trucks will always be there.

I also give better trucks to employees that earn more than other employees. Low earning employees drive in old trucks with high mileage and so on, lol.

And you wonder why they earn less money for you drinving around in high milers with possibly less power.

Not that my drivers enjoy 750hp on tap. I like to set them off in basic Renault Premiums. So they know their place.

That said I kinda like the 330hp (I may be wrong) Iveco as a personal driver. It makes me work the gears :)

It's just something I do to make the management-side more interesting and more involved. I also move better drivers to my better earning garages where they replace the lowest earning drivers and so on. What else is there to do on that screen? ^^

Eventually they'll earn about the same though, but till then I have some fun being the boss of my trucking-empire. ^^

buy a FH16 with 750hp engine and off you go thats what i do, it has the most powerful engines for starting a new game/profile, i always start off with volvos before i move to trucks that need a very high level for good engines

This is true, but by level 16 you can usually buy most of the mods to make the other trucks viable.

I do the same thing myself. I have a list of what trucks with what addons a driver gets when they start earning a certain amount of money. Lower earning drivers have to deal with older, crappier equipment while the top earners get a ride that reflects their skill and how much they bring to the company.

Personally, I hand down my old modified trucks when I get a new one, so I can expand my fleet. Your choice, if you are making a profit. If your profits are a bit so-so, hire another driver and give them your old truck
