What this mod does

Real USA Diesel Gas Prices is a mod by zanswer that replaces American Truck Simulator’s fuel prices with the real average price in each US state. That way, filling up in California costs quite a bit more than in Texas, just like in real life. It has over 23,000 subscribers on Steam Workshop.

What it changes

  • A different price for each state, taken from the real average according to the author.
  • The table in the description gives two values per state, “Petrol price” and “Fuel price”; for example, Texas $3.95 and $5.92, and California $6.29 and $8.44.
  • It also covers Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico.
  • The author updates the prices often: the page has more than 80 change notes.

Version

The description doesn’t state a game version. On September 21, 2026, a user reported that 1.61 was blocking it as incompatible, and on September 25 the author replied that the mod and the prices had been updated. The description says the latest price review is from September 29, 2026. It’s about 47 KB and requires no DLC.

Things to keep in mind

It affects your save’s entire economy: long trips through expensive states will cost more. If you use another mod that changes fuel prices, keep only one of the two enabled.
