Level 11. City.
I had a lot of issues with this level so I thought I would write some sort of guide on how I achieved completion.

The aim for this level is to help the north and south banks gain level 3 status by delivering 2000 tonnes of goods to each one.

You will start of with 500,000 and 1 Deadnought.

The issues you will face and need to try and avoid is over complicating the level by thinking you need to have a lot of vehicles to carry the money, at the beginning this will just cause you back log and loads of mission failures.

The added fact that there is a blue AI competitor adds a slight hindrance to the level but can be twisted around to your advantage.

First thing to do is pause the game ASAP at the start, buy 2 Alligators (180k each). Scan around the map and just find a 4T contract to get your Deadnought moving. With the Alligators start with the south bank. Only take contracts that are between 5T - 8T and NEVER take the speed contracts for the money contracts.

The AI will automatically keep stealing all 4T contracts more or less straight away.

Save up and slowly buy a total of 5 Alligators and then sell your Deadnought and keep following the same pattern of contracts between 5T - 8T.

After you have 5 Alligators buy a repair truck.

At 1985 a new enterprise will open giving you the chance to get container contracts. This is fantastic and with all that money you saved up waiting for this moment you can slowly buy 5 Menkar Trucks (270K each) and 5 Hyacinth Trailers (42k each). you will not need any more than 5 and this will just pump none stop money into your account from this moment on.

Around this point you should get awarded 3 nice race cars. Sell them all straight away. They get in the way and cause a lot of hassle. It's a nice 600k boost to your funds.

Using your new found wealth start upgrading your garage / office etc.

When the Brontosaurus (230k each) comes out replace all your old Alligators with these.

You should have now 5 Brontosaurus and 5 Menkar with Hyacinth trailers.

Time to start planning our contracts more smoothly. Ensure you wait for the money trucks to go back to the garage and get repaired before sending them out and start keeping an eye not to over load the same enterprise with too many trucks.

By now the south bank should be close to being finished.

Once the south bank is done it's time to stretch your arms out with the office and garage levelled and a few million in the bank buy as many Brontosaurus you can and start finishing off the north bank.

I hope this helps or at least gives you some idea on how I at least completed this level.

Let me tell you, how I managed to reach the goal 4 years before end:
I bought 8t Alligators and let them deliver large amounts to the banks. I chose contracts with a small fee for not succesfully deliver them. The alligator dont bring money but deliver constantly 7-8t per delivery.
I changed between buying faster Dreadnaughts and slower alligators (later Brontosaurus) and used the faster cars for earning money by speed contracts, to compensate the losses of the alligator deliverys.

lol, no. Just dump all your vehicles on the speed contracts. You'll make s**tloads of money in no time - 10 mil easy. Actually one of the easiest missions for making money

I made this level with about 10 days left after a bad start. Also it was my second try having failed the first time.
Have to keep your eye on the mission which is to HELP level the bank to level 3 which requires 2000 tons of coins for each bank. In this case the AI helps you to the end but also is a factor you must consider.
After seeing my money going red, I finally saw a different way to look at a solution which was looking at each contract total tonnage. For an example looking at 4 stages of 4 tons each = 16 tons which can be done with 2 fast 8 Bronos.
btw, the race cars give you 3 fast drivers and 600k and if you level both banks to bronze the central bank will give you 500k.
I also used other indies to help improve the roads to lower the speed requirements but if lower the number of stages then speed is less of an issue.
This level the AI is co-op, next level the AI is a nuisance.
