18 Wheels Of Steel: Haulin' is a trucking simulator made by SCS Software. This game runs on Windows XP, Windows 98, Windows ME and Windows Vista. Users with the retail box version should download a patch available free of charge at the SCS Software website. It has since been replaced by 18 WoS American Long Haul around Dec. 20, 2007.

This installment adds more cities and has more realistic graphics than previous games in the 18 Wheels of Steel franchise. The ability to use custom soundtracks and save games during deliveries was added also. Choose from 32 rigs, 45+ cargoes and 47+ trailers.The game doesn't require a very powerful computer to operate reasonably well, but it requires an up-to-date graphics card (RAM 256MB, processor 1.4GHz, 128MB video card). Prism 3D may not respond on older graphic cards resulting in a game crash on the game's startup.
