Oklahoma is a state of the United States, which is featured in American Truck Simulator as a map expansion DLC that was released on August 1, 2023. It is the eleventh map of DLC involving map expansions, but the tenth paid one.

Summary

The state is bordered by Kansas to the north, Texas to the south, Missouri to the northeast, Arkansas to the east, New Mexico to the west, and Colorado to the northwest.

Geography

TBA

Climate

TBA

From the grand American highways running through the hills of dusk-red rock to leading cities bustling with culture, landmarks, and businesses. Oklahoma is a diverse state shaped by its history and industries.
Located in the south of the country, "The Sooner State" generally tends to have a reputation of being a rather arid place, however, it’s much better to avoid judging this book by its cover. The state is home to wonderful national parks, several natural marvels, and historical places full of mysteries and legends. But those who are looking for something more practical instead will find their purpose as well since the local road network and a strong economy driven by natural gas and oil production will keep every trucker properly busy.

Trivia

Original plans for the Oklahoma DLC as shown in the usa.dds file.
  • What is most likely an early plan for the Oklahoma DLC appeared in the usa.dds map starting in the update 1.48 Open Beta. The file shows only 7 cities instead of 10, with Ardmore, Clinton, Idabel, and McAlester not shown at all and Durant appearing as a marked city instead of a scenery town.
  • For early adopters of the DLC, having a profile connected to your World of Trucks account and making any delivery using the External Contracts or External Market to or from Oklahoma City will earn a Honey Bee plush toy.[5] Plush Honey Bee.png
