Try driving under the speed limit.

[Mr.Rothwell]

I took a $400k loan and bought a truck and expanded by HQ in preparation of getting a second truck and driver. Still have $130k left in the bank and should have enough to get a second truck after another 7 in game days. Business management for the win.

you mad bro?

[Billy Bigpants]

I am fine personally, I took out a $100k loan then a $400k loan and currently pay about $8k per day back and still manage about a $10k profit daily.

Drive the speed limit and don't crash. I do not have a problem at all. I took out 130,000 loan to get my first truck then another 400,000 loan to upgrade my gaarge and buy a 2nd truck to hire a driver.

I have paid back the small 10k loans and working on the 400,000 and 100,000 loans, my daily payment is about 7600 and I have no problem making money.

Drive under the limits, i only did quickjobs until i had a 135K in the bank (about level 8) and then bought my first truck in cash, now the cash just keep rolling in every trip i make.. Keep on Truckin´

[tmaddox]

I did not take any loans. Earned enough by level 10 doing quickjobs to buy a $152,000 Kenworth. Left me with just over $3,000. Just finished a one day delivery that paid $13,000. No tickets on that trip so I am up to $16,000. I think this will be my "No Loan" profile.

I very rarely get tickets anymore. Cruise control and smart driving are your friends. going 5 mph over the limit is not worth it in a game with compressed scale and time. Speeding might save you a few minutes on a long trip but it is not enough to chance the fines.

i got a 130k loan to get my first truck, played until now at level 8 and have now got 400k loan, upgraded my garage and bought a truck and a worker. just take your time

[lotw_1]

Hahahaha, at 18% I would never touch a loan. But the fines are a little over the top, accident fines are pretty low when considering how much it would cost to actually fix what you hit. There needs to be a fault system, if I got hit by an AI driver then unless I pulled out or something it should be their fault and I dont get a fine.

The loan amount should be random and so should the interest rate, makes replaying the game more challenging or easier, depending on that. Loans are never a set price and set interest rates, there is always room to haggle...

I havent had a perfect dilvery yet. Each time ive either damaged my truck or my trailer or got a fine - even on a dilvery that was literally 2 truck lenghths - i crashed leaving the first depot

Wow, I have had only 5 problems with deliveries, two of which where crashes (well I hit something once and a car hit me once). I got a speeding ticket once (cause there are no signs in some places there is supposed to be). But have had a few good deliveries where nothing really went wrong.

Speed limits are there for a reason:

Weighing Station - 20
Cities - 30
Others (like construction sites) - 35 to 40
Highways - 55 or 80

Take a look at the map where your route is leading you, plan accordingly and you will be fine.
