Is this game meant to be a joke or do they actually think that truck drivers want a truck sim when they chill?

Is there any Surround/Eyefinity support?

You'd be surprised how fun a game like this can be. Never played this one. I played the Sega Dreamcast game, 18-Wheeler American Pro Trucker. The Dreamcast game was pretty fun. The arcade game that put you in a big cabinet with the huge wheel, horn and rumbling seat was sweet.

Native, Hor+/Vert- gameplay (more like "vastly Hor+" this time around, though).

Complete control over the numerous cameras, impeccable HUD, centered menus and full-height cutscenes make for comfy multi-mon gameplay, even though it's not a strictly Hor+ game.

It's low-budget but decent, simplistic with some subtleties, cheesy but not annoyingly so... and you can pick pink tint for all your truck's windows. It may not appeal to everyone, but there's no need to be a truck lover to have fun with this lil game.

Games with hor+/vert - are still certifiable as long as the hor + is more than the vert -. So,

Certified.

If you zoom out the in-cab view, can you see both side mirrors in both side monitors without having to move the mouse to look right or left?

18 Wheels of Steel and UK Truck Sim has switchable side mirror views and quick look left/right (like RL) whereas RnR has active side mirrors (more realistic) but it's a pain to operate the head movements with the numpad or mouse (causing you to crash into another car while driving).

Both games are fun (even with their faults).

Thanks. This will help me in deciding if I want Eyefinity or not.

IIRC you can't zoom out on that view, so no. But you'll always see the left mirror on your left screen without turning the character's head.
