American Plains Mudding Hidden Vehicle Route: Map, Locations, and Checks

American Plains Mudding hides several vehicles off the beaten trail, and the route below walks the whole loop in order so you can grab every one in a single run. Two of the pickups — the Hummer and the hidden trailer — sit in fixed, recognizable spots, while the other four are tucked into map corners that are easy to drive straight past. Work through them top to bottom and you won’t have to double back.

Every hidden vehicle stop at a glance

Before you drive the route

This guide follows the current in-game route across all six pickups in one continuous loop. That matters because American Plains Mudding gets map updates fairly often, and older walkthroughs built around three or four hidden vehicles reflect earlier versions of the map — the six-stop route here is the up-to-date set.

How to reach the Hummer in the hidden cave in American Plains Mudding

The first pickup is the Hummer, hidden underground in a cave you have to find and follow before you ever see the vehicle.

1. Head to the first map area — Drive over to the section of the map shown for the opening pickup and slow down once you’re inside it.
2. Find the hidden cave entrance — Look around the area for a concealed cave mouth set into the terrain — it’s easy to miss on a fast pass.
3. Enter and move through the tunnel — Go inside the cave and keep moving forward along the passage.
4. Follow the tunnel deeper — Stay on the path as it winds further into the cave rather than turning back at the first bend.
5. Claim the Hummer — The Hummer is parked at the end of the tunnel — walk up to it and claim it to add it to your collection.

How to find the hidden trailer in American Plains Mudding

The second stop sits out in the open once you’re in the right area — no cave this time.

1. Travel to the second map area — Leave the cave region and make your way to the next part of the map shown for this pickup.
2. Reach the nearby section — Pull into the nearby section of the second map area and come to a stop so you can look around properly.
3. Search the nearby section — Scan the immediate surroundings — the trailer is parked close by, not hidden underground.
4. Claim the hidden trailer — Drive up to the hidden trailer sitting there and claim it.

How to grab the bottom-left hidden vehicle

This one is a separate stop tucked into the bottom-left corner of the map, reached by following a path in.

1. Head to the bottom-left area — Point yourself toward the bottom-left region of the map and drive over.
2. Follow the path into the section — Once you’re there, take the path leading into this section and keep going.
3. Claim the vehicle at the hidden spot — Continue to the hidden spot at the end and claim the vehicle waiting in the area.

How to collect the nearby vehicle past the bottom-left pickup

This is the next stop just beyond the bottom-left vehicle, so it’s a short hop rather than part of the same pickup.

1. Continue to the next location — From the bottom-left vehicle, move on to the nearby location rather than heading back.
2. Travel to that part of the map — Drive over to this section of the map shown for the fourth pickup.
3. Collect the hidden vehicle — Once you reach the area, the next hidden vehicle is sitting there ready to be collected.

How to reach the lower-area hidden vehicle

The fifth vehicle sits below the main level, so you’ll have to drop down to get to it.

1. Head to the next map location — Make your way to the location shown for this fifth pickup.
2. Jump down into the lower area — When you arrive, drop down from the upper ground into the lower area below.
3. Claim the vehicle at the bottom — Once you land at the bottom, the hidden vehicle is placed there — claim it.

How to find the final hidden vehicle in American Plains Mudding

The last stop closes out the loop at the final marked spot, and you’ll want to be on foot for this one.

1. Travel to the final location — Head down to the last marked location on the map.
2. Leave your vehicle and search around — Get out and search the area on foot rather than staying behind the wheel.
3. Claim the last hidden vehicle — The final hidden vehicle is waiting nearby — claim it to complete the full set.

What to check if a hidden vehicle isn’t there

If you reach one of these spots and the vehicle is missing, the most common reason is that you’re following an older route. Guides built around a three- or four-vehicle map won’t line up with the current six-stop layout, and terrain changes from an update can shift where a vehicle sits.

The other likely cause is simpler: you may have already claimed that vehicle on this account, or you’re parked at the wrong landmark. Several of these areas look similar from a distance, so double-check you’re at the exact spot from the route — the correct corner of the map, the right cave, the specific drop-down — before assuming the vehicle is gone.
