Help me decide between Utah or New Mexico

[SirCuddlesWorth]

I bought Idaho, Washington, Oregon just now, but only have enough for one more.
Which do you guys suggest for length and looks. I love it when there is Detail and makes you immersed in the places you visit.

New Mexico

You can get New Mexico in a bundle with the heavy Cargo dlc, steering creations and wheel tuning pack. Since I already have them all, I can't see what the bundle price would be.

Both have pros and cons so depends on your taste. New Mexico is open desert and has more 4 lane hwy. It connects well with Arizona and Cali. You can make quick runs on the nice hiways that run through those 3 states.

Utah is more woods, so I would say more scenic. Those that love the desert would disagree but trees break up the scenery more. Utah will have more 2 lane winding type roads than NM. These winding roads are fun for heavy cargo runs.

I say that there both good but personally I prefer Utah, because I-70 to Moab is absolutely GORGEOUS and I-15 between Las Vegas and St. George is good as well. New mexico has some great scenery, but also has a lot of copy-and-paste that Utah doesn't. You could get either, you'd be happy with both though.

Ok, thanks everyone. I made my choice.

What did you buy?

I would say TeamReforma's Sierra Nevada it is a free mod that is better than anything SCS has designed....far more realistic I have driven those roads and it is on point.

Pretty soon in order to even run that mod you will also need to download the Mexico maps with it. It is being combined. Sorry, but not even going to touch that.

I won't ever run this map mod because of what the creators did before it was released. Remember this was only released because someone leaked it. Otherwise it would probably still be for patreon members only.

Or not, many many have happily used their maps for ages. If at some point I sent them $5 or $7 dollar it was the best money I ever spent on any ATS mod, much lass something as vast as a map. Great folks and a true service to the community.

I don't call toying and playing with the community for over a year as being a service to said community.

Posting pics, updates, etc. on the SCS Forums and then bam "you want it pay $8 to get it." which caused the thread to be locked. It was only unlocked because they released the mod after it was leaked. If that is not screwing around with the community then I have no idea what is.

It is just my opinion and one that I know that does ruffle feathers.

New Mexico is boring as hell. But just put all the sceneries on your wishlist and buy them on sale. Done and done. No reason to make it a difficult decision, it's not hundreds of dollars.

I'll have to check it out thanks.

I have been trying to get Reforma's Sierra Nevada to work in 1.39. As soon as I go to world map it crashes. Tried with suggested load order with Great America and without GA Tired V2.2.29 and V2.2.28 versions both said to be for 1.39. Its still a no go. I also have ProMOds. Could it be it doesn't work with ProMods in the same profile? I never had a problem getting a map mod installed until now.
