Is it possible to have different state license plates per truck?
I don't think there is after looking through the options but asking in case I missed it. I have my HQ in Portland so all my trucks have Oregon plates. I used the horned lizard paint and it would be more fitting if that truck specifically had a Texas plate. But all trucks take on the state where your HQ is based, right? Not sure if there's a method I'm missing.

Per truck...no. However if you go to World of Trucks and use a custom plate you can choose a Texas plate if so wanted no matter where your home garage is.

Ok thanks, that's kind of what I thought. I never messed with custom plates but might see how they look. It would be nice if someday they made it so your truck took on the plate of whatever state/garage it's set to but it's not that big a deal.

That actually is (sort of) how it works; each truck will take the license plate of whatever state its home garage is in. If you want this particular truck to have a Texas plate, you'll need to assign it to a Texas garage.

(Unless they've changed something, it's been a few months since I played. I do recall having Oregon, California, and Colorado-plated trucks though, all on the same license).

Did you use mods to get it to do that? I have my lizard truck stationed at the Lufkin, TX garage but it still has Oregon plates. All my trucks do.

You have to relocate your self to the garage then you should have Texas plates on your trucks.

You need to:

Locate a truck in Texas. Then you have to Relocate yourself, the DRIVER to That garage and that truck. Then you will have Texas plates.

You have to be located in the state in which you want to have that state's tag.

As AyMazingATS said you can change your plates on WOT no matter what state your home garage is in.

The truck got its plate depending on which state the garage/slot the truck is based at. Relocate the truck in the Truck Manager.

If you want to drive that truck, you have to relocate yourself to that garage slot in the Driver Manager. That garage will be your new HQ.

Another way is to use customized plates in the World of Trucks website. There you can specify exact registration number. (not only state).

Easiest, in my humble opinion, is to just change headquarter because it really doesnt matter where your headquarter is. Its a starting point in a new profile bur rarely visited anyway.

You can change your plates to any state you want. You may need to own the DLC for that state but I am not sure about that. Just go to My Page on World of Trucks and then click on Profile Customization. Scroll down to ATS Custom License Plates and choose the state you want and then click on Upload. I just did it for Texas plates and my HQ is in Utah and it worked.

It will auto send you to headquarters each time the map changes, yea thats about the only time for me as well

Easiest IMHO is doing it on World of Trucks, so if you don't own a garage in that state yet it won't matter. Plus you can customize the plate and change it from state to state at your leisure.
