Jon Ruda’s New DLC Wrecker | Build & Drive | American Truck Simulator

ATS v1.53

We start out by announcing our upcoming trailer giveaway, which will happen in Thursday’s video. It is the MAS Chain Floor Trailer from Southern Skinning. Details on how to enter in the video: good luck to everyone, and thanks to Southern Skinning for making this giveaway happen.


We then head into the shop to look at all the build options for Jon Ruda’s new Wrecker, so you can find out if it’s a good fit for you. I also discuss how to get it installed and how it works in general.

Finally, we take the Wrecker out on the road in the Reforma map. No trailer with this one, since the cargo is the trailer. That means we’re running the Freight Market.


I hope you enjoy the build & drive, and let me know if you have any questions or comments below!

This channel will be doing several things, including looks at various trucks, trailers, engines, and other mods in ATS - reviews, updates, things unique. It will also feature some flights in MSFS, train jobs in Derail Valley Simulator - maybe even combos in the same video. It will be heavy on the RP, showing viewers how to get creative with the game.
