What this mod does
Road Trip Car Jobs – More Miles and More Pay is a mod by Lee1 for American Truck Simulator’s car mode. It expands the quick jobs and the job market from the Road Trip DLC with longer, better-paying routes. It came out on September 29, 2026 and already has more than 3,000 subscribers.
What it changes
- Routes start at about 20 miles; longer ones unlock as your Courier Rating goes up.
- Below 2.6: about 250 miles. From 2.6 to 3.59: about 400. From 3.6 to 4.59: about 550. From 4.6 up: about 700.
- Base pay scales with distance: about $5,000 on short trips and about $55,000 on the longest ones.
- A high Courier Rating unlocks more job types and bonuses.
Version and requirements
The author says it’s made for car mode in 1.61. Steam requires the Road Trip: Ford DLC. Truck mode is unchanged. Offers depend on the cities, the job type and the map DLCs you own. A 700-mile trip won’t show up on every refresh.
Installation
Disable older versions of the mod and any other mods that change the car economy or car jobs. If you already have saved jobs, wait for the job market to regenerate or use g_force_economy_reset 1 in the console. The images on this page are illustrations, not in-game screenshots.
