I have gone thru the whole page on trailer manager. there is no "use" the trailer anywhere. There is percentage of usage (showing 0) but no use. Need more help. Thanks

Do you own your own truck? If not, you won't be able to use the trailer yet.

You have to be at the same garage as the trailer, move the trailer or the truck.

Yes. Finished a delivery in another city. Decided to use the trailer I bought before. GPS shows how to get to new pick up. Pick up spot is empty waiting for my trailer to take the spot to load up. That is it. I have no trailer. Thanks

To Trucker. That is just it, how can I get to the city where the garage is. GPS does not show the route. Thanks

You can use the dev console and warp there or if you want to drive, bring up the map and click on where the trailer is, that will put it on the GPS.

Also, since it's your trailer, it must be at one of your garages. Bring up map view in garage manager and click on the one that has your trailer, then choose "travel" from the menu. You will be teleported to your trailer.

You can also call for service. That will teleport you to the nearest service station to that garage and automatically attaches your trailer.

The only alternative I had was to call for service. That did the trick. It cost me $4.632 dollars to be transported to the garage and pick up the trailer. That surely sucked. Anyhow, thanks everyone for the input. I see now I really dont need a trailer. Thanks

Sorry guys. I spoke too soon. Now I have a truck, a trailer and I cannot resume my pending job. Things should not be this complicated in a game. The GPS is yellowed out, no route to the pending job is shown. No place to go. Any way to dump the present job?
Trucker_71 Apr 2, 2019 @ 11:36am 
Click on the info in the top left corner and you will the option to resume job or abandon.

You can easily travel to or between garages by using the relocate icon in the Truck management and Driver management screen as long as you have an empty slot in the garage you want to relocate to. Just relocate your truck into that empty slot and then do the same in the Driver management.

Unless it is a WOT external contract you do not need to cancel a job until you actually accept the job at the pick up location. In the Freight market you can just select another job. Also, the pending job information which Trucker_71 is talking about in the top left corner is only there once you accept the job at the pick up location.

Thanks WillyJK for all the information given here. Im gonna save this for future reference.
New problem: just bought New Mexico. It cost me $11.99. There are no jobs available from that state. What is going on. Suggestions welcome on this one. Thanks
