^ Yeah, that's when the box about truck speed limiter is unticked from in-game settings. When it comes to speed, the truck specifications shouldn't really matter as long as you don't use engines with low hp. If you can't drive over the mentioned speed in single player, then I'm not 100% sure what limits you to 68 mph. If the 68 mph speed limit only occurs in multiplayer, then I'd guess that you're playing on the most popular server (Simulation 1) which is, again, limited to 68 mph (=110 km/h). TruckersMP has a speed limiter which you can disable as well, but as like World Of Trucks Contracts, it's limited to 90 km/h (56 mph) so it's not likely the reason for your limitation.

If you've disabled the speed limiter from in-game settings, you should be able to drive well over 68 mph with pretty much every truck you can get in Euro Truck Simulator 2. As 68 mph is somewhat 110 km/h, the only reason why I'd see your trucks being limited to 68 mph is that you're playing on Simulation on ProMods servers which have a general speed limit set to 100 km/h (=68 mph). For me the speed doesn't really matter or nor does the acceleration. My favourite truck brands are probably Scania and Volvo as I really do like the outlook of them. Anyway, I find other trucks nearly as good as well (when it comes to the outlook) and can't even think about rating them as every truck is unique and 'good' in its own way.

Hello there, This issue also occurs when your Steam_api.dll file is corrupted (and that file being corrupted is one of the most likely reasons for that problem). In order to fix that file, please follow these instructions: 1. First of all, head over to the installation folder of Euro Truck Simulator 2 (or American Truck Simulator). If you don't know how to get to the installation folder of the game on Steam, read the instructions in the following spoiler: 2. Once you’re in the folder where your game files are located in, please delete the folder called "bin". 3. After that, verify the game files. If you’re not fully aware of how to do so, please open up the following spoiler and follow the given instructions: Once you’ve done all the steps, open up the TruckersMP launcher and try if you can finally login to your account. If you're still facing the same issue and you don't want to contact the support team in the first place, I highly recommend having a look at this topic (the instructions given by me and Snorlax can be also found here): Have a great day and Happy Halloween!

As ProMods is a massive map modification, some of the roads are understandable quite empty. However, there are some quite busy places on ProMods servers as well (e.g. Kirkenes quarry which is heavily crowded at times). I'd guess that the main reason why Simulation 1 is still the most popular server is the fact that a lot of players still haven't gotten all the map DLC's which is a requirement for ProMods. According to the statics, it seems like that ProMods 1 used to be a little bit busier than Simulation 1 for the last week, but Simulation 1 will probably be the most popular server again as most players are still unable to get ProMods for not owning all the map DLC's.
