Realistic Truck Wear is a gameplay modification that reworks the damage and wear system introduced in version 1.49, aiming to make truck and trailer degradation feel more true to life.
It changes how long parts last, introduces tire retreading, slows down wheel wear, and adjusts repair costs and insurance mechanics to mirror real-world maintenance expenses. Maintenance checkups are also introduced every 50,000 miles, along with revised warning and fine thresholds for damaged vehicles.
This mod is ideal for players who want a more immersive and demanding maintenance experience, where truck upkeep closely resembles real trucking logistics and costs.
