In American Truck Simulator by SCS Software soon after the release of the Illinois map DLC, I followed historic Route 66 from Chicago To Santa Monica traveling the existing historic segments and visiting as many landmarks and places of interest as I could. I wanted to do something different, and the completion of Route 66 in game provided an opporunity. Also, it just so happens 2026 marks the Route 66 centenial celebrated at route66centennial.org.

The Illinois map DLC does a nice job of recreating a scaled-down map of the state including beautiful Chicago. The game’s scale is 1:20, but cities are relatively oversized to provide more driving opportunities. Much of Chicago is not in game, but downtown section and some surrounding areas provide enough gameplay experience of the city including the Historic Route 66 start marker. Which is where I began my drive. You may follow along here or on a thread at Bluesky.

Chicago, IL to Joplin, MO

For the trip, I chose to drive the classic-styled Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition and using a Prestige aluminum flatbed trailer.

Riding shotgun is Big Boudreaux, a plush toy bear obtained during a World of Trucks event.

Follow along or compare locations with your trip, or download my heavy-haul route maps which include Route 66 markers.

The heavy-haul routes maps now includes Iowa for use with heavy-haul trailers modification for American Truck Simulator. Additionally I have begun adding more clearance icons as I rediscover them, so more may come in the future. These in-game clearance signs reflecting real-world signs generally allow more clearance than indicated. At least we may observe and plan our routes accordingly. Now inished converting my maps to my new vector drawing software the images should also appear better.
