The gameplay is very similar to the gameplay of American Long Haul, which was released a year after Haulin'. Compared to previous 18 WoS games the map became a bit larger (Mexico has been removed) and the graphics have been improved. The ability to use custom soundtracks and save games during deliveries was added also.
