Zero trucks for me, since here in Germany farmers usually don't own any trucks. Grain is usually hauled with a tractor and one or maximum two trailers to the nearest co-op, and from there it is transported elsewhere by trucking companies.

I voted 3, since that’s how I always ran on my larger farms, but lately I’m down to one or none and have sold them off. MVP 19 is a pretty tight map for a 4x, and though I have a couple of million litres to move, I now pull out all my tractors.

Where do I begin? On my main save I have a total of 6 trucks. 3 semis with double hopper bottoms, one that changes jobs based on the season and 2 seed tenders/grain trucks. This is of course based on the real farm I am emulating. I suppose theoretically i could get by with less, but since I almost always play single with no CP, tabbing is useful. On my other farm, I have a single grain truck and one semi.

I voted more than five. I have since found a magical spell and turned all my tractors into trucks. I now don't have enough trailers. I use magic cornish pixies to plant my fields. The buildings have turned to trucks. I have been transformed into an international trucking company. The game now loads ETS2 when I double click the icon.
