12PK-TRUCKIN’ is a virtual trucking company (VTC). We drive simulated trucks in American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2, logging miles using an application called TrucksBook. As a company, we log a million or more miles (sometimes 2 or 3 million) each month. To put that into perspective, a thousand miles traveling at around 70 miles per hour in the game takes 1 hour. As a company, we are very dedicated. We were established on October 4th, 2018 and have grown to over 100 members already. This community is a strong community, we have bonds that can not be broken. Our primary goal is to have fun and enjoy the community, while also being professional and respectful to each other, as well as other drivers we encounter in the games. 12PK-TRUCKIN' was started as a group effort, and over time we have become one big family.
