There are a few things that you need to learn about SCS, the company that made American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2, among others, and that is this:
They cannot add trucks to their games without licensing from the truck manufacturers.
The trucks that you requested aren't even in their two biggest titles right now, except in the form of mods made by fans of the sims.

SCS has not announced any plans of making an Australian Truck Simulator, at least not yet anyway, so you might be a teenager before you see one from them, if at all...

Finally.., the next time you post here, please either make sure CAPS LOCK is off or keep your little fingers off of the shift key.
You probably didn't know this yet, but typing in all caps in a forum like this is considered yelling and is also considered to be very rude.

I really dont hope you are only 9 years old, firstly because then you way too young too be on steam\orgin etc. Secondly you are way too younng too play games with 18 Years old mark on, then i would say your parents is not doing a good job with raising you.

Vitriol aside, OZTS would be fun. Instead of tumbleweeds you hit a kangaroo and it does damage

While I agree that a 9-year-old should most definaately NOT be roaming the internet unescorted, I think ATS and ETS are perfectly kid-friendly. You're never too young to learn the rules of the road, and what 9-year-old doesn't love big rigs?

They can, but it would take a while bud. SCS Software is located somewhere in Europe, and they had to actually fly here to America just to study the area before going to the drawing board for the map. Its a long and tedious process. It would takes years for an Australian Truck Simulator.

Children are humans, too. The sooner they're exposed to the world, the longer they'll live.

More to the point; the sooner they get out and play -at 9 years old- instead of playing PC games, the more they will enjoy 'the world'. There's plenty of time to play PC games when your older.
Before they know it their world has shrunk to a PC or mobile phone.

Meanwhile enjoy Outback Truckers. Don't think you would get me sitting in a truck doing 4-5,000K https://youtu.be/W3vYXTUa48o

And that's why there will never be an Australian Truck Simulator. Too many empty spaces and long distances with nothing to see. It's fine for a game like Forza Horizon to have an Australian version because they can squeeze everything into one area because it doesn't have to be realistic - but ETS2 and ATS have always tried to be mostly realistic which is what makes it so appealing.

That's exactly the case. TV edits it to make it more action than it really is. Driving endless days -never mind hours- is just a numbing killer. Even ATS pushes my buttons on long journeys. Great scenery for a while then it's a loooooong drone of the engine for hundreds of miles. Which is why i (prefer) ETS2 which has a heady mix of huge journeys with lot's of 'in your face' attention. Don't get me wrong, i will *fully* support ATS because it still has appeal, just has to 'grow' up more with more and more stops.

As has been mentioned several times, you can limit the map to the east coast and end up with a game roughly the size as the current ATS map (with the same scale) and pretty similar road/city densities. Basically imagine California backed by a California-sized Nevada, then double the size and mirror it (for an east coast instead of west) and you'll get a pretty good idea of what a Queensland/New South Wales/ACT/Victoria AuTS would be like.

The outback truckers do tend to get glamourised a bit, but remember that 85% of our population lives within an hour of the coastline, and most of that is the east coast, so there's no point trying to simulate driving across the Nullabor or up through Alice Springs to Darwin because it simply isn't indicative of the vast majority of true Australian trucking.
