hey guys, my name is ciggy, i'm a truck mechanic from Australia and love the site and lately the 18 wos games (ALH). The company i work for sells Isuzu, Freightliner, Sterling and Mercedes Benz trucks and we work on Kenwothe Western Star and many wore so i've seen a few go through the workshop.
Love the site and the mods coming out lately and look forward to more, i'll probably get into modding myself and hopefully post some aussie looking truck mods here in the future!
cheers!
