Quick update to everyone. I will indeed be redoing the performance test of trucks. I was going to start Sunday night, but like all issues that happen on PC, they happen suddenly and unexpected. My RAM decided it didn't want to work properly and now I can barely run my PC. So I in the process of backing up files and eventually will get some new RAM chips for my PC.
I could do the test on my Apple computer, and might do that. But right now, I just really want to fix my other computer, lol.
I will do it eventually though, because I am really curious about the new trucks and I want to do this test much better.
If anyone knows of some good "straight roads" that are next too or near a garage/trailer location please let me know. This way it is easiest for me to switch trucks and then test them.
In the earliest ATS yes, I used a stretch of road right near the garage in Sacramento. There is a section of road almost straight ahead past the repair shop, then turn left. It's usually got no traffic and was a good road. The issue with it though is that it was a little short.
In ETS2, I used a very long stretch for road near the Le Harve garage. It was nice, but runs had to be omitted if there was traffic. I attempted "top speed" runs here too, but I never kept track of the records because I was never sure if I could go faster or not, or traffic slowed me down.

Oh no! I am sorry to hear that. That also sounds about right. It will happen when you least expect, usually when you are motivated to do something then now can't. Sorry. As for good straight areas, I think you already found two good ones. I can't think of any.

That stinks. Sorry about your computer. I'm trying to think of other locations to start at. I would have said Phoenix for ATS, but there is often TONS of traffic on the roads in that warehouse area.
