I recommend steam workshop stuff

now I don't do map mods anymore.

I just use them untill a state gets release like new mexico

No. I do not like map mods becasue they just make the map empty unlike SCS's work. Since SCS works hard at creading each state it is worth the wait and money.

Did you ever tryied the Coast to Coast Mod on ATS, I had it onece in early 2017.
