You guys play the MP mod? I installed it yesterday and really enjoy it! Seems like the people I saw yesterday are (role)playing nicely without ramming too much. If Someone wants to do a convoy let me know. I believe it's somehow supported in-game.

I don't play single player at all to be honest. The psychological effect of knowing that there are no real people anywhere does nothing for me in ETS2/ATS

You can organise "real" (read: large) convoys at http://ets2c.com/ and such convoys may get admin assistance if needed, but if all you're looking to do is drive around a bit with a small group, you don't need to do anything special. Pick the same job or at least ones that are to the same city, hit the road ^^.

Does that also work for ATS?

I see American cities listed there, so I would assume so. Never done convoys myself, I'd imagine they're boring af if one isn't on voice comms..
