There is a dedicated sub-community in RoR focused on transit simulation. These mods include school buses (Thomas, Blue Bird) and city transit buses.

Vanilla RoR gives you a few trucks and a jeep. Mods give you everything else:

Rigs of Rods is unique among vehicle simulators. While most games use rigid body physics, RoR uses a soft-body physics engine, meaning every vehicle is a network of interconnected nodes and beams. Modding is the lifeblood of this game; without mods, there is no game.

This guide covers everything from finding vehicles to fixing common errors.

If you are doing a fresh install, here is a "Starter Pack" to get you immediate enjoyment:

Rigs of Rods is not a polished AAA title, and that is its greatest strength. It is a labor of love built by developers and modders who care deeply about physics.

The modding community keeps this game alive. Whether you are downloading a detailed logging truck to haul timber or a monster truck to crush cars, remember that every mod you download was created by someone in the community just like you.

So, head over to the Repository, download a few trucks, and start breaking some beams. Just remember: Drive safe, or don't. It’s more fun to watch the physics engine figure it out.
