Hello fellow truckers,

I have a question for you all.
What do you prefer in ETS2, to drive multiple trucks and switch amongst them, or just pick one and stay with it?
I usually find it very hard to switch trucks. I recently bought the Scania R and have driven 35.000km with it so far, and just don't like the idea of suddenly leaving it behind for a while to drive a different one.
Tonight I bought myself a MAN TGX Euro6, as I've never driven or owned the MAN before. And even though I like the truck, it just makes me think I want my Scania back.
Had the same for a long time longing for my Mercedes when I was driving the Scania.
I guess I just like getting used to every aspect of the truck and then enjoying driving it.

So how do you all do it? And if you switch, how long before you switch back?
I've got like over 100.000km driven in my Mercedes alone, 35.000km in my Scania and about 60.000km in my DAF. All my other owned trucks have less than 20.000km. So it's clear to see I've kinda got a favorite.
Anyway, tell me about your trucks and how you play the game. :)

Most of the time, I'll stick to my star Mercedes. Good truck while still maintaining a break from all the Scania and Volvo you see on multiplayer today. Though sometimes I'll switch trucks for some reason or another. For instance, while driving through the Sweden event, I made a patriotic Scania decked out in Sweden colours, affectionately nicknamed "The Swede Machine." Though I did go back to my Merc afterwards, it was interesting to revisit Scania for a bit.

I own 15 garages:13 of them for the other drivers and 2 of them just for me:) in Copenhagen and Murmansk.I have different kind of trucks like Scania, Kenworth, Mercedes,Volvo, Kamaz etc. Instead of selling and buying again and again, I just change it.Because after driving a truck more than 100.000km I think everyone gets bored.This is the best solution for me...
Headquarters: Istanbul.
Driving Scania S730 (8x4) at the moment.
Level 442 (2.200.000 km + )
Promods + Rusmap + Southern Region.
18 large garages.82 trucks.

I have 2 completely different accounts that i play!
One has ProMods, Jazzycat and some other mods!
The other is vanilla map/profile that is connected to WOT and on that i do the event!

On both i usually keep a truck for 20000-30000 or longer and then i buy a new one and the old one goes to a hired driver!

On the vanilla i currently have a Renault Premium

On the ProMods a Renault Magnum

I personally prefer the Renault trucks. I always drive in cabin view so I can see the dash, and I found the Renault has the largest windshield. For me, it's all about seeing the greatest amount of scenery without having the cabin block my view.

I am currently using Renault Range T, but I used to drive with Volvo most. I have about 100 000 km with my first one and about 40 000 with another one (both are same, just different colour :D), then I get bored so I was trying every trcuk (almost) in the game. But I wasn't satysfied with no of them so I downloaded the Range T and it's a great truck. Even when I hate French cars, I love that Renault :D
