It demands dedication, skill, and a true passion for the trucking experience.

Key Changes:

Career Grind: Quick Jobs are now mandatory, essential for building skills, income, and progress.
Skill Progression: Earn points every 800 kilometers (Levels 1-9). Balance distance unlocks with other skills for optimal XP. Reaching level 10 (130,000-160,000 kilometers) simulates your first year on the road.

Financing Challenges: Early game credit limits restrict buying new or decent used trucks. At level 15, banks offer additional financing, but the initial amount may only cover a used truck or a cheaper new model. Saving €62000~ beforehand allows for a better purchase.

Enhanced Bank System:

Dynamic Rates: Interest rates fluctuate based on real-world adjustments by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Alterrnative source for this information is being considered)
Loan Limits: Your credit limit (based on skill level) and real-world economic factors determine the maximum loan amount.

Realistic Repayment: Manage finances to make timely payments; failure results in penalties.
