For the twelfth edition of our Shining Stars series, we're putting the spotlight on our German driver Maxi.

What is your favourite part about our family?

The familiar and friendly atmosphere of the VTC between Drivers and Managers: everyone is there for everyone and helps whenever they can.

What do you typically drive and where do you drive it?

I normally haul all sorts of cargo and I'm mostly on the road on the TruckersMP Simulation/ProMods Servers.

What game is better: ETS2 or ATS? (Why)

I prefer ETS2 because I like driving in Europe. I find the European trucks much more interesting than the American ones.

What other games do you play?

I mainly play ETS2 (TruckersMP), otherwise I play simulation games and games like Rocket League and GTA V.

Why did you join the GPE Family?

I have known GPE since 2020/2021, when GPE was still a small newly opened VTC. At that time I had my own VTC, and I have seen and realised over time that GPE is the right VTC for me. They have active VTC members, are active on the roads of TruckersMP, and have a family like VTC atmosphere. Everyone is always there for each other and you are treated more as a human then just a driver or a number.

What is your dream job?

I would say I don't really have a ‘real’ dream job. Maybe I would like to become a bus or a truck driver. But, I am someone who would do anything, so nothing would be too bad for me.

What would you say is one thing you have learned whilst in GPE?

I can't say too much about it yet, as I've not been in GPE for that long, but what I can say is that I've got to know a lot of people, and if you decide to join the General voice channel on the GPE Discord server, it's always fun.

What are your hobbies?

My hobbies are doing outdoor activities, such as cycling or swimming, relaxing at home in the garden or on the PC. I also love being on the road in TruckersMP when I have the time. I also stream Events or just drive tours on my Twitch channel. Lastly I like to help with problems, or at Events as Media/Event Staff.

What 1 word sums up your TruckersMP experience?

Community!

Finally, what would be your one bit of advice to a new driver on TruckersMP?

I would tell every new TruckersMP player to read the TruckersMP Rules carefully, and if they have any questions, just ask.
