| Note: This page contains only information about Louisiana in American Truck Simulator! | ||||||
Louisiana (French: Louisiane) is a state of the United States, which is featured in American Truck Simulator as an upcoming map expansion DLC. It will be the seventeenth map of DLC involving map expansions, but the sixteenth paid one.
Summary
The state is bordered by Texas to the west, Arkansas to the north, Mississippi to the east, and the Gulf of Mexico to the south.
| “ | Embark on a journey to the Pelican State nestled in the south of the U.S.. Discover the subtropical climate of the state which has provided the magnificent brooding scenery of the coastal bayous, and the lush, dank vegetation.
Truckers can look forward to the beautiful and iconic landscape of this southern state, historical cities like New Orleans and Baton Rouge, miles and miles of long stretching roads, and also the Mississippi River delta that has helped shape how the area looks today. Louisiana has a diverse variety of industries ranging from agricultural production, fishing, or forestry, to petroleum, gas, and coal. Thanks to this, drivers can haul plenty of different cargo types in and out of the Pelican State. We cannot understate the importance of waterways in this state, especially its canal system and the crucial role ports play, such as the port of New Orleans, which ranks among the busiest in the country in terms of volume of seaborne freight handled, so there is plenty of cargo to transport for everyone! |
