Hi' Can anyone help me? Years ago I had a simple truck sim I downloaded from the web and I'm trying to remember what it was called so I can download it again. All that I can remember about it was that you ran a trucking company based in Australia. You started out with one old truck and you had to transport various cargo's to different cities and towns within Australia. You also had to keep within the speed limit, or risk a fine from the police. In the end you had a whole fleet of six trucks all carrying different cargo going to different towns all at once. It was an addictive game with simple graphics (I think it was only 2D graphics). Does this ring any bells with anyone? Thanks. -- Paul Maskell [email hidden]
