Having your garage located within reach of quite a few destinations (I.e nit Aberdeen) seems to help. I've got two garages in Europe now and generally never have an empty trip.

Anyone know how long before you get a 2nd 400k loan available, I've got nearly 200k in the bank but want to buy new depot and 2 more trucks, is it relative to how much of the 1st 400k loan is paid off or something else??

Can only be loaned 500k at a time, repay the first loan off then go again.

Just a small note to say that some mods cancel out others! I have not had any luck with no speed limiter mods until I disabled some other mods.It works fine now.

Bugger, wanted to speculate to accumulate, figured I could easily cover the costs of loans for 2 depots, might take out another smaller 100k (which I can get) to cover 1 truck and pay cash for the depot just higher interest rate.

5 drivers i've decided to discriminate and employ only female drivers. smile

volvo trucks seem to be by far the best trucks going.

on a side note - the extra lights you put on a truck can you switch them on at all?

Fairly low on the minimum specs needed (DX9 and will run on a nVidia 7600GT 258 MB card - though probably not in eye candy mode) - what's wrong with your PC?

I have a slim profile PC [HP Pro 3120] currently runnign stock graphics chipset, so I need a low profile card which supports two DVI-D outputs. Apparently not so easy to find...

Is there anywhere that's significantly cheaper for diesel or are they all about the same?

Get one with DVI and HDMI or miniport and use a convertor?

Amazon DVI/HDMI and HD7750 LP

Shade over £70 and jobs a good 'un.

Whilst I am still waiting for flaming Amazon, what does the team think about having a garage in Felixstowe and another in Rotterdam?

It makes sense in RL but may not in the game.

Totally different in game, would probably not put a garage in the UK until your 3rd or 4th one, many on here start with there 1st in the UK and soon regret it.
