Overview
Description

Take the wheel of a massive 18‑wheel rig and haul cargo from Key West to San Francisco, racing against the clock and a rival called the Lizard Tail. Choose your driver, truck, and trailer, then navigate highways, use the horn to clear traffic, and slipstream for speed boosts. Between stages you can park for mini‑games to earn extra cash, while strategic decisions about trailer difficulty affect your payout. Master timing, avoid obstacles, and beat the rival to maximize earnings.

Trucks & Trailers puts your driving skills to the ultimate test with 50 individual truck driving challenges. Compete against the clock to complete intricately designed courses and tasks that put you firmly into the driver's seat. As you improve, higher difficulty levels disable external camera views, forcing you to rely solely on in‑cab mirrors. Precision reversing, yard sorting, and tight parking are just a few of the skills you’ll need to earn gold medals and claim the title of trucking titan.
