I clicked on that zip file like no tomorrow

can't wait to drive

The only bug I found was if I leave one truck with the emergency lights on and spawn another the lights on the new truck stay on, but without the flares unless I press ctrl-1 Not a problem, just turn the lights off the 1st truck

Such a fantastic truck, works so well on older computers too. I had 3 of them and still playable
Thank you so much
