How to customize your truck after buying one ?

[Wolfy Silverpaw TTV]

bought my first truck but unsure how to customize it. thats if you can not something you need to do before buying the truck. as be nice to change the skin every now and then. but not sure how exactly i do it if you can no option in vechicle browser to make a change.

customize you can do when buying the truck but you can go to any repair station and do that to if you want

As you level up, you gain new items for upgrades, such as.. Paint, Wheels, Exhaust, Tires, Turbo/Motor/Trans.. This goes for Trailers as well... Not in that order but, you get the idea.

The truck you are driving can only be altered when you are parked on the truck service station's icon - you get options for both repair and upgrade - but other trucks you own can be upgraded from the Truck Manager screen even if they are being used at the time.

People never answer this. We know "go to repair station." WHAT DO WE DO AFTER THAT? WHAT MENU? WHAT BUTTONS? You already know the specific things to do so you never mention that. None of you do. WHAT SPECFIC PARTS OF THE MENUS?

Well, there is a green wrench floating you about cannot miss. The navigator (F5 key one, not the dashboard GPS - just to make sure...) will tell you what to do. A menu eventually offers you repair and upgrade - not really rocket science to get there without help.
I mean so many other people have done that. I actually reached Level 35-ish and a fully tuned truck before even joining the first truck sim forum back then in ETS2. Sometimes when reading such helpless stuff here, I wonder how I made it there without babysitter

Mirko already said it, but I wanted to reply, It's not Rocket science.

But go to the green wrench, press enter and select the 2nd option, then select any of the icons at the top of the screen and see what it offers.

From Left to Right:
Cab type, Chassis type, Engine, Transmission, Interior, Paint job, Exterior accessories, Interior accessories.

With interior and exterior accessories you get to see grey dots, click on a dot to see the options you can place there, sometimes an external part will show red dots on it, bull bars for example, click on them to see what you can put on there, similar thing happens for some interior accessories.

It is a game. You can make saves. Experiment and see what you can achieve. If you don't like what you achieve you can either quit without confirming your changes or restore from the save.

We know what to do, because we took the initiative to click on buttons and figure out what they do, or have to offer .. Did you never breath before someone told you how to? Did you never open your eyes, before someone explained how your eye lids work?

You were certainly able to figure out how to necro-post a 3 year old thread to rant that no one holds your hand, so I think you can figure out what menus to open, and what options to select.

Take a few moments to click some buttons, other than your caps-lock key.
