ATS - Texas DLC?? A sneaky look over the state line - part 1 of 3

So, now ATS 1.45 has been set free, what do we see on the map?

Yes, the road through Cody, and a few random junctions here and there. But what about the edges? We've got new map expansion DLCs on the way - could there possibly be anything to see in them already??

Well, yes. In this video I visit a rest stop that was floating off in Texas somewhere north-east of Hobbs, NM on the road from Seminole, TX and Seagraves, TX (by my reckoning at least). Then I drive back along Route 62 back towards Hobbs before finishing this first of three episodes taking a sneaky look at what lies in store.

And I only needed to do this because all of those bits helped me get back to 100% of map driven.

which includes enabling the developer console, changing the time or weather, using the flycamera/teleport (NB, the hotkey is now CTRL+F9, not just F9), and many more...
