This job you did was exactly what my dad did when he was delivering new Mack's all across the country. He had to quit driving tho when a trucker fell asleep of the wheel and ran my dad off the road, causing the trucks he was pulling to basically pollvolt over his rig and smacked the ground somewhere in Tennessee. He was lucky to make it out alive and this video brought me back to that night at 240 in the morning with him on the phone thinking it was gonna be the last moments of his life. Imma watch this whole thing to the end, thanks for the good content you make Jeff!!
I have Jon Ruda's trucks. Have the KW, Pete and the Freightliner Classic. Love the Classic, you need to get that one also. Have no problem paying for something that is worth it. You should also check out his trailer pack. Love the videos Jeff, keep it up.
So as far as the "jake brake" rule goes, big companies preach new drivers to NOT use them during adverse weather conditions but these safety rules are mostly from executives who have never driven a truck before. In real life, the only time the jake brake has a negative affect during adverse weather is when you're "bobtail" or on ice and snow. As far as rain goes, I've been driving since 2003 and accumulated about 2.5 million miles across our great country and I have NEVER lost traction using jakes in the rain so have at it!
One of your videos popped up on my suggestion list so I decided to watch it. I am a big fan of sim games and never heard of ATS. I now have it and really am enjoying playing it. Thanks for being so awesome and putting your game play on here its a lot of fun to watch. I might even start making my own videos as well.
Thankfully I have the ability to choose what to spend my money on, and if I see a mod I like, I can toss money to the maker if I want it! Hell a lot of freeware mod makers deserve some cash tossed their way for their work. If someone complains about it, it doesn't affect me in the slightest, I just keep on truckin'.
lol. Not really.. these mods can be developed easily if you know basic coding. But hey its your money or your mothers. Im sure it’s mommy’s but it’s fine. Just dont spend too much ;) dont wanna get chargebacks from mommy
That stretch of I-20 from Dallas to the state line is usually pretty heavy traffic irl too, the average traffic speed is about 80 but the truckers only do about 65 so they slow everyone down
I can honestly agree with this, and it doesn't even have that many customizations on it compared to the original one already in the game. Wouldn't pay more than 5$ for that truck
Great video, as always. The rig I drive doesn't have jake brake, unfortunately. 2005 Freightliner Columbia. Slick top extended sleeper, dual rear stacks, super singles, CAT, 10 speed eaton fuller
Brake pedal at ten percent once you reach a desired speed, until you reach the very end of the grade in all weather conditions. There folks, now you have your answer. Just because I think Jake's are for ametures, doesn't mean Jeff is wrong. After all, this is a video game. This guy is a great content creator and handles that virtual truck like a master craftsman wields a chisel.
Actually Jake breaks are meant for people who are use to their trucks and know what it does to the truck. So saying it's for amateurs is wrong because an amateur would panic. I'd say Jeff is a pro.
The cool thing is I'm in the dfw area getting my cdl right now and it's all cause of this game and youtubers like you and others that got me into it more
Gulf coast big rig truck show is July 17-18 at the coliseum in Biloxi ms. Convoy on the 18th on the beach at dusk for those interested in attending. The convoy will be recorded and posted on big rig videos.
I just finished moving from New Mexico to Gulfport and I took the exact same route out of Dallas that Jeff did. The traffic was about the same as in the video.
Funny you mention the Mary Kay cars. I worked at a Chevrolet dealership and we had a black Equinox come in and we had to put the emblems and stuff on it for the person who got it.
As somebody that lives about 30 mins fro. Gulfport i got to say that this map is very close to the real thing like when jeff turned off of hwy 49 on to hwy 90 that what ita like irl.
The 389 glider & XL classic are well worth the money from Ruda. I haven’t tried the W9 Highway killer but I’m sure it would be too. Just had no interest in getting it. But to those who are against paying for mods there are several great mods in the steam workshop as well. These pay ware mods are usually crazy high detailed & high poly count. If your cpu can handle it id suggest giving them a shot.
John Snow whenever some posts a rude comment it’s just helping the channel by giving it more comments, rude or not. And yes the people that ask for subs are the most annoying. The only way to make money on RUclips is to actually make content.
looks like the forums say turn jake power down or use lower rpm and use the air brakes as well due to the truck wanting to lock up, seems to be a mixed bag from what I can see and considering it is a game do what you wish much love a fan from NY. (Not the city but the part where all the farms are lol)
That was a great video I enjoyed that alot and I liked it alot and I love that Kenworth W9 it is one pretty and beautiful and great looking truck and I belive its worth 30 bucks and keep up the great work and i will catch you next video brother much love to you Jeff and have a good one and take care see ya later alligator
jeff if you show the truck when the video starts you should show the whole inside with the studio bedroom we wanna see the bedroom in the truck too. its just a game, if it was your own truck i could of understand that your bedroom in the truck is private and if you wanna show it, you can show it. but jeff its just a game show the whole truck my bro.
hey jeff, im loving the trucks and vids you got goin, but i was really wondering if maybe sometime you could haul a load or pick up a load in san antonio tx im just really curious as to how the map looks there thanks man keep up the great vids
As far as the jake brake situation, it’s mad stupid to do so in the rain. I did as a rookie and it nearly cost me my life. It’s best to take her slow down hills with the four ways on in a low gear than risking using the jakes.
I don't know what people are complaining about. I always have been a supporter of payware mods (B4RT for example) because while the free ones are nice too but payware mods also help keep the game alive too. I finally decided to pick up the 389 Glider from Ruda and it's just such a nice mod. The textures are better than SCS's, the only thing I wish it had was more cab options but I'm sure he will add them in the future. He was such a pleasure to deal with, and was so nice. As a non boomer 22 year old, I think people are just too cheap and hence they complain and think they are entitled to free mods. Any plans for showcasing Ruda's 389?
@@jayyy2159 the i20,i49 exchange is just on the edge of Shreveport. By the airport. Also I wasn't saying it was supposed to be accurate. Just making an observation. No argument intended here
Gulfport Mississippi is very beautiful down there especially in the summertime
Just don't mind our 110°+ weather 😂
It does get hot down there the hottest I ever seen Mississippi get was 105 that was back in the 80s lol
my week hasn't been the best but you always find a way to make me smile thanks jeff :)

Love how relaxing the ATS series is
Ikr it's just enjoyable to watch someone driving a truck for some reason. I love all of Jeff's vids they are all relaxing to watch.😂

Yep Gautier
My job has a great way of keeping me here!

I find myself watching these vid's with no intent on ever playing ATS, then searching for more vids, and loving every episode...wtf is wrong with me?
Why to wrong with you
Lol it's a good game
@@randomdoodmillian1400 Yes
I rarely play ats, i find it boring to play myself but not to watch jeff
I recommend John Ruda trucks I have is W900 and his Freightliner Classic XL they are both really great quality mods

and do you notice that the brake sounds like a 🚁 starting up?
Which is - from the perspective of physics - correct, since the jake brake can be regarded as a "mild" brake, compare to a pneumatic driven brake.
When you got to the beach in Gulfport you were on hwy 90 I live in Long Beach about 5 minutes away from Gulfport so this is a pretty awesome video 🤘🏼
I went to hancock high and I live in gulfport now
David Avery hell yeah that’s awesome man
I just moved from New Mexico to Gulfport and I took the exact same route out of Dallas that Jeff did.
Dark Remedy that’s pretty cool the ride definitely looks different tho huh 😂 hope you enjoy the coast
Hell yea i work at the beau in biloxi
Finally Dallas, Tx my home sweet home
This is actually really cool and it gives me so many ideas to do when I get a pc and buy American truck sim.
Oh my dude! You gotta get in on this game, it's the best.
21:30 nice catch there Jeff!🤣🤣
Jeff is the best RUclipsr
I keep looking at the Night on Earth doc on Netflix but I keep watching other stuff. One of these days I'll watch it
Beta 1.37 is finally out and can't see you to check it out. Im running into a freezing problem but hopefully they'll fix it tomorrow.
Thanks for the upload Jeff!
A thumbs up just for having the dog with you
I love me some Jeff!
You won me as a fan when you got that ASP heavy hauler control board thing, made me LOL

Payware truck of 1 that's already in the game, and costs more than the entire game itself. No thanks.

Good thing about mods: no one is forcing you to get it.
@@J.n.A.1993 Thank god haha. I wouldn't like that!
John Rudas truck are much higher quality than SCS trucks. especially the Frightliner Classic.
@@TheOofertaffy i wouldn't pay 1 pound or 1 dollar
I like your video because I love American trucks Simulator

Marcus Johnson it has a Jake break unless the person before you took it off
Being from Mississippi you brough knight transportation some new trucks lol. I used to work out of the Gulfport terminal

i live in gulfport mississippi! love this episode❤️!

Let me take a guess, stevens transport?
What a wake up call ur in for
so weird to see those U.S. Foods trucks considering my dad works there for real lol
Truck drivers never hit their horn when they reach a city or town.

Welcome to my city
I wouldn’t ever knew that they would put my home city lol keep making videos
Im from Pascagoula!! Im in gulfport right now!
Jeff, I almost die laughing at your road rage.. LOL keep up the great videos!
Whenever I see a truck piggybacking other trucks I'm like, I hope they don't come undone.
I just finished moving from New Mexico to Gulfport and I took the exact same route out of Dallas that Jeff did. The traffic was about the same as in the video.
They take Google map to make this game so this might be accurate.
@@ryanborghini2975 no they actually go there, also he was in the c2c mod so it was inaccurate
Cool video Jeff
Funny you mention the Mary Kay cars. I worked at a Chevrolet dealership and we had a black Equinox come in and we had to put the emblems and stuff on it for the person who got it.
Love these videos
i love the trucks you drive
This was amazing
Badass truck you got there man, I enjoy watching yay play. Keep up the amazing content. 👍
"Mama dont let your babies grow up to be morons" their it is 😂
In the outskirts of Dallas, if you honk the driver will come out with a gun.
As somebody that lives about 30 mins fro. Gulfport i got to say that this map is very close to the real thing like when jeff turned off of hwy 49 on to hwy 90 that what ita like irl.
I like seeing these runs going thru Louisiana even though it inaccurate I like seeing things I have seen before
thanks for the videos very helpful thoughtful very nice guy.
Hey Jeff, I know you hate the AI but, this video is hilarious. Definitely love your commentary. One of the big reasons I love your channel
i love it
man i want to play it so bad
Jeff, I’m your biggest fan!!!
Idea can you do a bus or school bus video
I'm trying to get caught up on all your videos Jeff, GEEEZ ;)
The coast to coast is close to accurate for that run tbh, I’ve hauled that road plenty of times.
14:05 I hate those turn offs always gets me lol n btw love the sounds of the truck just amazing
I believe that paint scheme is called comanche, that paint styling..
21:31 when ya parents hate your favorite song great video jeff 💀😂😂
You came to my home town. Gulfport Ms
This truck looks really good. I’ve been thinking abt getting it
Maybe get me some shrimp from the boats there. Bring them back to Florida 😊
I love your videos 😍😍😍😍😍
Hi Jeff, I would like to see more x-plane 11 on the main channel. Thanks
Gotta make a run to San Antonio Tx Jeff!!!
Nice in this game u passed through my home state Louisiana
Why do people just come on your channel to dislike your video
Anyway I liked and subbed keep smashing it let’s reach 3000 videos

Hello Jeff, just wanting to let you know that the 1.37 Open Beta dropped today Feb. 26th. with the new sounds and a new ownable food tanker trailer.
Am I the only one watching from Gulfport
Nope!
Me too this is crazy
I’m 3 hours from Gulfport
An hour away here
Just moved to Gulfport
Banger video that was 50 minutes long that I watched in the first full minute of it being posted
John Snow it’s called a joke. He skipped ahead so it only took a minute to watch.
John Snow agreed 👍👍. If your not going to watch the videos and appreciate them then why even be on this channel.

Hockey Playz it was a joke
And I did watch the whole video
They say not to use the Jake in the rain or any wet weather but to each there own
I have always heard it's ok to use the Jake's in the rain.dont use the cruise in the rain. always worked for me.
I watched half of the video before I noticed the dog. lol
