What this mod does
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG is the most extreme version of the G-Class (W463) of that era. Nimit turns it into a car you buy and drive in American Truck Simulator; it’s not the 2022 G63, which has its own page. He publishes it for free on his verified ModLand account, with credits to Nimit, Mert İrşi, Slav Jerry and Elaman.
What the author says
The ModLand page is brief: the changelog only says that version 5.7 of the mod is updated to game version 1.59, with no details on equipment or options. The file is 69.95 MB and has 131 downloads on ModLand. Nimit asks that the link not be changed and the file not be re-uploaded.
Driving tip
According to the author, it handles very poorly in corners and rolls over easily. Open the developer console with the ` key and type «g_suspension_stiffness 1».
How to get it
Like the rest of Nimit’s cars, you buy it at the mod dealer entrance of any truck dealer (that’s what the author says for his other cars). Look for the Mercedes-Benz brand.
Version and known issues
Nimit confirms 1.59 in the title and the changelog. There’s no confirmed version for 1.61, so it may throw errors there; Holyfix will warn you if so. He also publishes the ETS2 version on the same account.
