Today, we’re taking another look at the upcoming American Truck Simulator map expansions, this time focusing on South Dakota. Just like in Illinois, our map team has been hard at work recreating some of the truck stops across the state that serve as essential points for rest, refueling, and taking in the local surroundings. Let’s see where the road might take you.
Rapid City, the second most populous city in the state, features a truck stop situated close to the highway and with a view over a massive industrial complex.
The next truck stop by the town of Wall stands out with its name inspired by the “natural wall” of rock formations near Badlands National Park. Here, drivers will be greeted by the town’s signature high dinosaur statue, keeping watch over US-14 and offering a truly unique landmark.
Sioux Falls, the most populous city in South Dakota, features a truck stop located along I-90, as well as a nearby truck dealership and a driver staffing agency. Within the city, make sure you visit the USS South Dakota Battleship Memorial, which honors the state’s military history and serves as a place of remembrance.
In Huron, the truck stop sits not far from Ravine Park Lake. Drivers stopping here will also notice farming machinery nearby, highlighting the strong agricultural traditions of the area.
Watertown features a city truck stop located not far from its signature Art Center building, a cultural landmark that adds to the local identity.
And finally, there is Bison, a town platted in 1907 and named after the American bison that once roamed the land in great numbers. Here, we have to highlight a small regional airport nearby that gives this stop a distinct atmosphere.
We hope you enjoyed this look at truck stops across South Dakota. As always, keep in mind this expansion is still in development, so details may change before release. If you’re eager to explore these locations yourself, don’t forget to add the South Dakota DLC to your Steam wishlist.
