American Truck Simulator (ATS) was published on February 2nd, 2016 by SCS Software. The game has seen continuous development since its release and has featured numerous DLC expansions. The main gameplay loop of ATS consists of transporting cargo over long distances via tractor trailer truck. Third party mod makers have greatly expanded the map of ATS to include parts of Mexico, Canada, and Alaska.

Forklifts

One of the many cargo options in ATS is a pair of forklifts. The two forklifts are indicated as weighing a collective 17,500 pound, they require the use of a drop deck trailer, or a lowboy trailer to transport. They also require the player to have unlocked ranks in both the Fragile cargo, and High-Value Cargo skills. These forklifts are yellow/orange in color, generically modeled "FL2100", and are of indistinct make; they also feature folding forks.

Rough Terrain Forklift

Another forklift featured in ATS is the Rough Terrain forklift. This forklift came to ATS with the Arkansas DLC, released by SCS Softworks on September 14, 2024. The rough Terrain forklift weighs 29,000 pounds, and requires a drop deck, or flatbed trailer to transport. This forklift requires the player to have unlocked the 2nd level of the Urgent delivery skill. The rough terrain forklift is orange in color, and its make and model is the generic "Vester TR7300". This forklift features a fully enclosed cab, and off-road tires.

Forklift Chassis

There is also a green forklift chassis present in the game. It resembles the chassis of a large industrial forklift. The player is able to take on jobs to deliver the chassis to customers in the game world.
