  1. [R3] Truck Simulator 3/5 · US Mileage goes down faster or slower??: Why does the Mileage go faster or slower depening on the route. If you go 4000Mi it’ll go down fast.

  26. [R65] Truck Simulator EVO 4/5 · US It needs improvement: There is very minor tweaks this game needs. The graphics are great for a mobile game and it’s very immersive but why does the AI randomly slam into my truck?

That’s my only critique as the rest of the game is amazing and gives a sense of adventure from how big the map is.
