Top 10 Best Mods for American Truck Simulator

Experience the open road like never before with American Truck Simulator! This sequel to the popular Euro Truck Simulator 2 boasts a massive fanbase and an incredible library of mods. Choosing the right mods can significantly enhance your gameplay. Here are ten top mods to supercharge your ATS experience. Remember, compatibility may vary, but you can easily enable and disable mods within the game.

TruckersMP: Multiplayer Mayhem

While American Truck Simulator now features multiplayer, the TruckersMP mod offers a superior experience. Team up with up to 63 other players across various servers, all moderated for fair play. This mod surpasses the built-in Convoy mode in several aspects.

Realistic Truck Wear: A More Authentic Driving Experience

This mod refines the damage system for a more realistic feel. Repair and retread tires, but be warned – insurance costs increase, incentivizing safe driving. The Steam Workshop discussions, featuring real-world trucker input, are worth exploring even if you don't install the mod.

Sound Fixes Pack: Immersive Audio Enhancements

Enhance your ATS soundscape with this comprehensive pack. Enjoy subtle improvements like more realistic wind sounds with open windows, and impactful reverb under bridges. Plus, five new air horns!

Real Companies, Gas Stations and Billboards: A Touch of Reality

Add a layer of authenticity with this mod, featuring real-world brands like Walmart, UPS, and Shell, seamlessly integrated into the game environment.

Realistic Truck Physics: Enhanced Handling

Experience improved vehicle suspension and other realistic driving physics adjustments. This mod focuses on subtle enhancements rather than drastic difficulty changes. A similar mod is also available for Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Ludicrously Long Trailers: A Hilarious Challenge

Embrace the absurd with ludicrously long trailers! This mod is perfect for streamers and those seeking a unique challenge (though it's single-player only).

Realistic Brutal Graphics and Weather: Visually Stunning Weather Effects

Upgrade your game's visuals with more realistic weather effects and new skyboxes. Experience varying fog intensities without demanding high-end hardware.

Slow Traffic Vehicles: Unexpected Roadblocks

Experience the frustration (and occasional thrill) of encountering slow-moving vehicles like tractors and combine harvesters.

Optimus Prime: Roll Out in Style

Transform your trucking experience with eight different Optimus Prime skins! Purchase the appropriate truck (Freightliner FLB) and apply your favorite paint job.

More Realistic Fines: Test Your Luck (and Driving Skills)

This mod makes breaking the law a bit more forgiving – but not without risk. Speeding and running red lights might go unpunished, but accidents are a real possibility.

These ten mods will elevate your American Truck Simulator experience. If you're also a fan of European trucking, be sure to check out the top mods for Euro Truck Simulator 2 as well.
