Season 13 was too easy so I took the Twinsteer to carry the salte blocks out of the quarry. My other most used trucks were the Tatra Force, Tayga 6455B (because it's so much better than the other one), Kolob 74760, PLAD450, Step 39331Pike (always a great choice, fast and has no problems with mud, and the TUZ108 for scouting

Brave taking the Twinny, although I do love it and the lower suspension and smaller wheels help a lot! Love the Pike and 108 too. Good choices.

Even if I've done 98% of Almaty, it's always nice to watch one of your "BEST trucks" videos, Ben! Two more trucks I've enjoyed using beside your recommended bunch have been the Step 39331 Pike and the White Western Star 4964. It's amazing to see this old timer still getting around nicely in later seasons. Oh, and even though there aren't many logging missions (thank Christ), I definitely recommend the Aramatsu Forester for those, because it tackles the irregular, rock-ridden dirt roads of Almaty with aplomb without losing and scattering logs all around. Have a nice weekend! Cheers! //Rick
@ATribeCalledCars3 ай бұрын
Cheers, Rick. The Pike, as you may know, has featured in a best trucks roundup before. Absolutely excellent machine! The WWS 4964 is a year one veteran I forget to try but I suspect it would be solid too. And yeah, the Forester is my logging choice. Or maybe was, there is at least one new contender but I need to test it more!

My trucks for Season 13 were mostly highway and heavy-duty (surprise-surprise, as if any of the new regions since S10 BC was difficult enough to justify using an offroad truck..). I used the Ford CLT 9000, International Transtar, International HX520, Kenworth W990, Chevrolet Kodiak, Western Star 49X and 47X NF1430 and so on. I also used Kolob 74941 and Boar 45318 for handling them heavy mission semitrailers and even an 8-slot superheavy. Offroad trucks were almost not used at all - except Mack Defense, Voron Grad and Tatra Phoenix. Also, the TwinSteer and the FEMM-37 saved my bacon when it came to hauling so many cargoes.

Depending on route/truck choice you could make this map pretty easy, but if you picked the more difficult routes in-and-out of the quarries, it provided a welcomed challenge. I'm starting to wonder if we'll ever get another all-snow region. The game's name hasn't changed... I'm not asking for Amur Part 2, but at least something that doesn't feel like white mud.
