accesories?

[Fhog]

when are we going to get accesories dlc for our trucks? I would really like to see a CB radio in my truck.

The TruckersMP mod gives all trucks(and cars) a CB radio. I would like to see them in the actual game though.

Even something like what they had in 18 Wheels of Steel would be fine.

Officially? Magic 8-Ball says: Outlook is Bleak.

[Vellari]

I would imagine eventually. Priority is most certainly more states/trucks.

They won't be added, SCS have said they won't because they aren't legal in the US (their words not mine).

"CBs aren't legal in the US"?
I know this is bull, I've lived in the US all my life and it's NEVER been illegal to own or use a CB radio in the US.., in fact I've had 3 or 4 of them over my lifetime so far and never have I had to buy one in a dive bar or back alley. I just went to the local truck stop or Radio Shack and bought one. There's a truck stop just a couple of miles from my house that I stop at frequently and they currently sell several models.
So either someone at SCS is a total moron or you are just trolling, regardless, I'd like to see a link to this statement, if there even is one...

He isn't talking about the CB's so much as cabin accessories (flags, tennis balls, magic 8 balls etc...)

Then please explain this...

It specifically mentions CB radios. If he was asking about "flags, tennis balls, magic 8 balls etc..." then why is there no mention of these other things?

I think, unless it would in some strange way effect the licensing process of new trucks (for example a brand wouldn't want to be associated with illegal activity, even if it's just something minor like a cabin accessory), pulling a "we won't add it cuz illegal" move sounds more than silly to me.

Exactly!

What part of Moh's response said anything about CB Radios. He played the pronoun game by using "they". He probably meant general accessories like things hanging from the windows that could block the drivers' view.

There is no need for you to go ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crazy when you can't be 100% clear on what they were talking about.

[Nimir-Raj]

The OPs post asks about cabin accessories, then mentions he'd like a CB radio. At no point did he say the CB radio is all he wanted. But again if it was the only accessory he meant then they still wouldn't do it simply because it's not worth the time, money, or effort to add that one thing as DLC.

A DLC pack just for a CB won't happen. Can't have stuff on the windshield or anything blocking the view (apparently) so all that is out. So what can SCS add other than a radio that is legal in ALL states, and would validate the time to make it all?

Regardless of your opinion of whether SCS is right about the legal side (I ain't American, I neither know nor care whether it's accurate or not) that is SCS's reason, like it or not.

I never went "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crazy", you are reading far more into my statement than what was ever there.
Furthermore, if someone is going to ask a question about "cabin accessories" then why not mention those cabin accessories and not just one specific thing?
Yes, the OPs question header is simply the word "accessories", but then the only thing they mention is wanting to have a CB radio.
I honestly do not see where I've made any mistake. If I wanted to ask a question about "mods", as an example, but only mentioned the Coast to Coast map mod, then it's natural to assume that is what I want to know about, is it not?
That's like walking into a restaraunt and when they ask you what you'd like, you say simply, "food". What kind of food? Is the waiter or waitress supposed to just "magically" know that you want a burger or a steak when all you mention is "food"?
I'm not trying to be an a$$ here, just pointing out that sometimes you need to be a bit more specific if you want an exact answer.

Back about 40 years ago CB radio was illegal for any Tom ♥♥♥♥ or Harry to operate. You had to have a licenses for it. But now you don't have to have a licenses. But a CB is a 40 channel radio. But you can get a CB that has been altered for more freq. ant that is illegal. Those are not CB radios. Those will get you into trouble by the FCC. Because they will get on military bans and Ham bands. Ham Radio you have to have a licenses. Military band are off limits to one and all. CB radio is not illegal in the USA...

Being the OP yes I was wondering on any accesories for the truck. The CB was an example and one i would really like to see. Reading some of the posts I see why SCS wouldnt do a dlc due to not being cost effective. I guess we will have to wait and see if any of the modders out there can do it.
