Some of you may also play ETS2 on the TMP mod where we can run as a group, if so you will probably know "Explore Transport", well this is part of the meaning behind the title of the thread, its also fitting given that I have plenty of map to discover, including Iceland, Spitzbergen/Svalbard and the Faroe islands.

The first thing I did was hop into Laura Jane, my ex Eddie Stobart truck PX11BTU, Laura Jane being the name that the truck had when in service with Eddie Stobart, then head over to Ireland from Dover, then made my way to Iceland. Laura Jane is a 6x2 which with a container on the back made for some interesting handling as she wanted to wheel spin, A LOT!

True, but a cat is smart enough to always make the most of it. :)

How do I get a cat (preferably the own cat) in the passenger seat? That would be the I-point for me... :D

Thank you for your pictures! :)

Thank you for the info. I don't use Steam Workshop.
It is a pity that can't place animals in the truck based on photos.

Pulling into Kosczalin, then following the GPS, (kindly voiced by Glados) the route tool me down a lane, I was like "you want me to go down there, in this?" turns out it was a little supermarket in the back and beyond, a challenging route in to the drop yard. its the little things like that, that have made Promods interesting. :D
