Ford DLC for ATS
SCS revealed the first DLC for the upcoming Road Trip module in American Truck Simulator – Ford Car Pack.
For those who may have missed, Road Trip is a brand-new addition to ATS that introduces a more dynamic way to explore the game world beyond traditional trucking. This new gameplay module allows players to step behind the wheel of a variety of vehicles, expanding the ATS experience while remaining true to the spirit of the open road.
The Ford Car Pack brings together some of the most iconic vehicles ever to grace American roads. From a legendary pony car to modern workhorses and pick-up trucks, players will be able to get behind the wheel of the iconic 1967 Mustang, the all-purpose 2023 F-150, the modern 2023 Bronco, and the legendary 1998–2012 Ford Crown Victoria.
With the eventual release of the Ford Pack, and with any Road Trip vehicle pack, the Road Trip gameplay module will become available to players. This means that owning this or any future Road Trip DLC will unlock access to this exciting new gameplay experience.

American Trucks Simulator Bundles Shopping Strategy
With new Iowa DLC it is already 18 state DLC released for American Truck Simulator to date. Unless California, Nevada and Arizona are available for free, all other states are chargeable and if you start purchasing expansion from the scratch it can be really costly. For sure, better way to buy add-ons on sales but you can save even more with bundles and for now we have already 6 bundles which includes not only map DLC but also other nice add-ons. And one of the benefit of bundles that it gives discount on total price but if already have DLCs from the list its price will be excluded.
Below you can find all available bundles including brand new with Iowa DLC. Unfortunately Missouri Mighty Haul disappeared right now so Missouri DLC is selling for full price.

Hidden Roads Study – July, 21 2025
I’m trying to share all found hidden secret roads in both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 and for if for Europe we have no many of them since the Greece release in 2024, for America we had significant update after the Missouri release and have some new added with Iowa. And as mentioned on Telegram I discovered couple of new roads in Iowa and added them to list of cities by states https://trucksim.top/y9t6. I believe a lot others will be found while cruising Iowa and in the end I will refresh the video guide.
This takes considerable time, and YouTube analytics show that viewers prefer map mod combinations over guides like these. Therefore, I’ll be giving this project lower priority, along with other regular guides
ETS2 (updated 04.25.2025, actual on 1.55, 80 roads so far)
ATS (updated 05.16.2025, actual on 1.55 without Iowa, 224 roads so far)
Unfortunately, YouTube search results often prioritize older videos, so even though I’m updating descriptions, outdated guides still rank higher in search results. Please always check if a more recent and updated guide is available.
