History
CanadianXpress was founded in 2014 by an Irish trucking enthusiast. We operate out of Kitchener(Ontario), Canada. Our main goal is one of many smaller targets we set for ourself's and staff each month.
Depot
We are currently working on a small map update that will include the city of "kitchener" as well as our depot. The Depot itself will consist of 2 main chilled hangers, and another one located at the side of the building to look after our dry goods. On site parking will be included for up to 10 trailers as well as some many other nice features.
Getting Started (Starter Pack)
Our starter pack is also in the works for this month, it will include skinned reefer/dryvan units as well as our depot and economy to match. Our economy will be uniquely ours, and strategically thought out. We bound our cargo's with a prefix(_ce) to ensure our drivers will pull the correct trailer with matching livery. Others we have included are (_costco)

This is definitely one of the best looking websites for a VTC I've seen. You've done a fantastic job! Best of luck!

Still busy behind the scenes now, as the forum is in maintenance mode. I'm working on some trip plans, to encompass into our Economy. Google maps API will figure heavily on site and will be bound to our Data Structure. If your interested in how we Mock a database on proboards, we will be using a Service called Parse.comOur future trips will include a point to point system(OR WAYPOINTS) that drivers must follow.

Just a quick update. I have just added our first route to the game map:) A test Route if you will. It consists of 2 new companies( Canadian Xpress, Costco Canada) and one new cargo( Costco_meats). I have both 3D models for the companies almost complete and will be adding them to the map shortly. I am also working on a trailer(reefer) which I hope to finish soon after. The website will be updated again most evening's, it has been a bit quite since the arrival of my new daughter who was born last Thursday night. The first of our many routes throughout Canada. American Routes will follow, but our attention will be on expanding Canada for now. Departing | Arriving | Depart (minutes) | Cargo | Start Coords | End Coords | Trailer | Trailer Look | Miles/KM | Price | Canadian Xpress Depot, Kitchener | Costco Canada, Winnepeg | 300 (3am) | Costco Meats | { lat: 43.4500 lon: 80.4833 } | { lat: 49.8994 lon: 97.1392 }
| xprReefer | Costco | 2,144.3 km | TBA |

Thanks for the comments guys. When are you guys opening? I can't give you a date just yet. The lack of interest in VTC's is pretty poor at the moment, which I hope to change. However to do that I need to have the software built, both the software for the Client(c#) and the Server(php). This takes most of my spare time, so other things like the game economy(even though I have a solid roadmap for it) are being neglected right now, due to me not having anyone to work with right now. I don't want to open a halved arse attempt at a vtc, its gotta be right, by that I mean its got to be an experience for our drivers. They must have new content in the game(skins,trucks,routes) etc. I will write another PR looking for some help, but if there is no interest, that will dictate when the vtc will open. Hope that answers your question.
