    This is one of the best simulators on the market next to flight simulator. The game runs smoothly and is easy to play. The game will become more interesting if you were able to buy more assets besides garages, trucks and trailers. It should be possible to buy second hand truck dealers and make money from sales as well as sell your trucks through them. Other businesses like the companies you deliver for must also be purchaseable. Overall I give the game a four star rating. Dirk du Plooy(Monday, 28 April 2008)

    It's fairly difficult to make sitting around all day driving in a straight line into an addictive video game, but I can honestly say that this is about as close as you can get.

    Graphics are smooth, gameplay is simple and effective. You never quite feel like you're doing anything, but still manage to waste hours at a time and, bizzairely, wake up in the morning witha burning desire to do more.

    The main drawback is predictable - it is essentially the same game when you start playing as it is 3 days later. It's one of those games that you will be totally addicted to fo a week or more, then get bored of for several months - before probably coming back to it again. For the price, it's pretty much worth it.
