[queen brook]

I think my daf ran for almost 2 weeks straight last summer

[formal minnow]

till engine is cold lol

[manic crest]

Yes

[queen brook]

Way too hot to sleep

So idle it is

[formal minnow]

Yeah it reuses engine heat

[manic crest]

Lol

[formal minnow]

when its off

[formal minnow]

lmao

do u not have parking ac

[queen brook]

If it gets over +22c im not shutting it off

[queen brook]

We do did but it only lasted for 5 hours before batteries went byebye

Old DAFs

[formal minnow]

damm tf

yeah ok

so idle

i kept my van on aswell

i just hope summer wont be too bad in the iveco

as i know for a fact

aint NOONE getting my keys

"sorry i got no parking ac and its black it needs to be running "

cuz i aint gonna wait in a office

as they dont have ac for drivers anyways as we aint important

[queen brook]

Perks of working in Finland do be non scorching summers

[manic crest]

Xddddddd yeah I forgot it’s black

Must suck in the sun

[formal minnow]

man

when i was there in summer 2023 it was hot

[manic crest]

Isn’t that a battery problem instead of a Daf problem ?

[formal minnow]

but the lakes were nice and comfortable

[formal minnow]

yes

batteries probably never replaced

[queen brook]

Even with new batteries its a problem

Its an auxiliary unit

Not integrated like the new DAFs

So it succcs power to run the compressor and all the fans needed for air

[manic crest]

I noticed in my scania the park ac isn’t as cold as the regular ac

[queen brook]

With the new DAFs you can easily run the break ac for 11 hours

[manic crest]

Idk if it’s like that or it’s just broken

[queen brook]

In +20 weather

8 hours or so if its closer to +30

[manic crest]

What year is yours ?

[formal minnow]

just sleep shorter

and run engine 30 mins till u go to sleep

so u know itll make it

thats where american trucks have some benefits

the fact they have apu's and some just have a comfort mode where if battery reaches certain % engine goes on and off as needed to recharge

[manic crest]

Yeah idk how that isn’t standard here in Europe

Probably some emissions related bs

[formal minnow]

probably

but even if it was just a comfort mode

to turn on automaticly for the batteries

especially when ur sleeping

also goes on if fridge / freezer drains batteries wich is good

if u keep frozen food in ur truck if u sleep in it weekly like u do i geuss

[manic crest]

I don’t

Just refrigerated

[formal minnow]

ah

i geuss u cook or

[manic crest]

Nah my mom cooks for me before I start work

[formal minnow]

it lasts long enough to be fresh still?

or im geussing half is frozen and by the time ull eat it its just defrosted

[manic crest]

7/8 tupperwares of food and I just keep them in the fridge

[manic crest]

Yes

[formal minnow]

😭

must be nice

[manic crest]

I keep the fridge at 3

[formal minnow]

to still live at home

[manic crest]

The ones I eat on the last day taste a little weird but definitely still eatable

[formal minnow]

thats what the nuker is for in the top cupboard

[manic crest]

If I was driving alone yes I would keep one fridge on freezer and one just cold

[formal minnow]

ah ur double manned?

[manic crest]

The microwave ?

[manic crest]

Yes I hate it

[formal minnow]

yes

[manic crest]

Going to switch companies soon

[formal minnow]

i mean the benefit is tho im geussing ur home every weekend

wich u wouldnt be otherwise

[manic crest]

Yea

[formal minnow]

i geuss u have ur own fridge and the other driver has his own fridge

[manic crest]

Ye there’s one for each

[formal minnow]

ye

[manic crest]

On the scanias, the volvos just have one big one

[formal minnow]

i mean i geuss if ud decide together to try to cook daily ud probably have one on fridge and other on freeze

[manic crest]

Ye that’s what I said

Or just eat some tuna in a can if I don’t want to cook xd

[formal minnow]

xD

but like

if ur food tastes weird by the last day

id just u know take 2 less

[manic crest]

Nah it’s still fine

[formal minnow]

and just try get some fresh food that day or just a truckstop

i need to clean my fridge

for now im still just using my cooler

the fridge is dirtyyyy

and doesnt stay on at night

atleast from what ive been told

[manic crest]

I always arrive home from driving at lunch time and I always have one Tupperware of food left that I eat at home

[formal minnow]

haha

so what do u prefer

day or night driving?

[manic crest]

Night always

[formal minnow]

because im geussing u guys try to drive 18 hours a day

[manic crest]

Yep

[formal minnow]

i geuss the one downside is ur running curtain

[manic crest]

We do 20 on the day we start and the last day

[formal minnow]

so 9/10 times u cant sleep when loading

yeah rush to get home

then if needed i geuss try and abuse the fact of extra drivetime to get back to base

cuz that would give u guys a combined 4 hours of extra driving on friday lol

[manic crest]

Yeah idk how it’s with fridges but we take 30 minutes to load max

[formal minnow]

im geussing 9/10 times u guys get loaded then

[manic crest]

Yes

[formal minnow]

or is it just 2 pallets here 1 there etc

[manic crest]

Yes

[formal minnow]

aka remember what goes out where

[manic crest]

It’s rare that it’s more than 10 or whatever at one location

[formal minnow]

to try and keep it organised

or do your planners keep that in mind

[manic crest]

Luckily our company has stickers that we put on the cargo

[formal minnow]

so everything gets loaded / unloaded in order

[formal minnow]

yeawe do too

but if u gotta load / unload in between its annoying

as u gotta remember what goes where etc

i try to place it all in so its per warehouse as weve got 3

[manic crest]

We don’t do that

[formal minnow]

but if its like one pallet for warehouse 75 and i got a few at 53 too

ill just take forklift

[manic crest]

We unload the whole truck and then load it all again

[formal minnow]

and park it at the back door in that warehouse

and theyll grab it some point

[formal minnow]

damm

other companies must hate u

[manic crest]

Unload 2 pallets here, 4 there more 6 there until it’s empty and then the same but with loading

[formal minnow]

if u unload a whole trailer

[manic crest]

Lol why xd

[formal minnow]

as the 1 pallet u need

is at the fkn front

😭

[manic crest]

Nah we always organize them at our warehouse

So it’s nice and organized when we get to the unload points

[formal minnow]

ah i geuss u take full load

go to netherlands warehouse

[manic crest]

Idk how to explain in English

[formal minnow]

and then reload trailer with some new pallets going in some going out etc

[manic crest]

Exactlyyy

[manic crest]

Sometimes we do one or two stops before going to the warehouse

[formal minnow]

right

but i geuss its planned then so u make sure or the loaders make sure its at the rear in order

[manic crest]

Yes

The ones that we unload last are always at the front of the trailer

They’re in order I mean

[formal minnow]

yea

'wednesday i had pallets to unload as second last stop

7 pallets...

definetly not in the way nooo

[manic crest]

Xdddd

[formal minnow]

so i just threw my stops in the bin

and basicly unloaded them after unloading other stuff

loaded 2 pallets in same spot

then went to load other stuff

[manic crest]

Work still got done so

[formal minnow]

yes

stil had 3 driving hours left

ive used under 23 i think this week

[manic crest]

Efficiency

[formal minnow]

hopefully next week some longer trips

my coworker was mad

he went to france today and yesterday

to the same company

both times for just 1 /2 pallets under 500kg total

aka couldve sent a van and be back way faster

[manic crest]

Lol

[manic crest]

Could’ve sent you

[formal minnow]

no

but if theyd planned a bit better wouldve been done in one trip either way

[manic crest]

Meh

Not your problem

Also I wanna drive alone so I can fart in peace

[formal minnow]

if u eat proper u wont fart as much

[manic crest]

Idk about that

I’ve been eating a lot of crap the past few weeks tho

[formal minnow]

well

dont

the less truckstop toilets u gotta use the better

[manic crest]

Specially in France

[manic crest]

I’ve been trying to start eating less

Im fat as hell now

[formal minnow]

tell ur mom to cook u smaller portions

😂

[manic crest]

Nah the food she makes is okay

It’s just that I bring a lot of crap like chips and cookies and sugary stuff to eat

[manic crest]

She always packs me food for 2 weeks for some reason

I never eat all the food she makes

Like I said I still have one meal left when I get home but she still makes food for 10 people

[formal minnow]

Ah

I eat alot of chops usually

Not good

Definitely dont take any to work cux then ill eat alot even haha

[formal minnow]

She cook for ur coworker too or something 😂

[manic crest]

Yeah seems like it lol

[manic crest]

Chips ?

[lean oracle]

i could turn my pto on but i have older truck, it doesnt turn off and volvo has the eco power buttn and works, 2daus ago talking with coworker bout em, i smoked him at the onramp

[lean oracle]

probz cuz its a small unit that aint use the components that are there when running engine like using radiator to cool n shit, plus tis to keep the cab comfortable and thus lower temp/regulate vs full on cool

[manic crest]

Nice

Like what 😭😭

[formal minnow]

Yh

Lmao

[ivory patrol]

Real

[manic crest]

I asked mate a simple question why would he say that

[spiral jetty]

What Hiab?

@formal minnow PK 65

This is one of the trucks I’ve driven.

This is what I drive now.

[calm parrot]

Palfinger

Pk 27000

[spiral jetty]

Oooo not a bad toy. The one where I said PK65 was referring to the hiab in the photos being a PK65 aha. But 27 still got a lot of grunt in it!

[calm parrot]

Managed to lift this shit over a hedge but you always want a bigger crane

Crane was screaming 98 99% the whole time

[soft remnant]

Should I buy it as my new race transporter?

[warped gate]

That's a very good looking volvo

[soft remnant]

Fh aero

Might get that one painted black with that bodykit and put my livery on it

[warped gate]

What does your livery look like?

[soft remnant]

on the kart is older but on the ford concept design is what its gonna be

here

[warped gate]

That would look great

[soft remnant]

i would get the truck and then a streamline race car trailer that has side skirts

this type

[warped gate]

Yeah that'll work

[soft remnant]

which would be nice for me to have in the game so i can be allowed to just have that to myself with my livery nobody else on tmp

[warped gate]

And how long did it take to make that livery in fh5

[soft remnant]

7 hours

[warped gate]

jeez

[soft remnant]

when i designed it for my kart and my time attack race car it toopk me 3 months

im not showing the irl version of my race car but heres my 3d model of the time attack car golf mk2

[warped gate]

That is some very aggressive aero

[soft remnant]

what ill be doing is modifying the trailer to house my go kart in the skirts area like a draw while the car goes inside the main with a camp quarters at the front

[soft remnant]

16v turbo 650hp

a friend of mine name hycade helped me out with the design

Some pics of the car before the transformation, I won't show the completed version cuz it's top secret cuz I wanna reveal the car to the public in a car show event

im geussing this has a diesel tank on the reefer itself

vs on bottom of trailer

[queen brook]

Yes and yes

[formal minnow]

this must be nice tho

no need to get out and press 50 buttons and stuff several times to slide in the axles

just press a button and the box goes to the rear

[formal minnow]

did u break something

[rugged cape]

The roof light broke

[formal minnow]

Damm

and its easier to fix like this vs just climbing trough the roof hatch?

[clear sequoia]

Since I ride for the German military, here's something nice

[lucid birch]

https://tenor.com/view/german-germandance-dance-happy-ww2-gif-5763723929359948005

[ivory patrol]

Thats how you should drive puolikas, 7m

[lean oracle]

And then what climb onto the roof and hang over it?

[rugged cape]

There is glass there

So yeah opening the grill and pressing a button is easier

[formal minnow]

just gotta make sure ur drinks etc are all secured i geuss

[rugged cape]

Yeah

Didn't have any

[signal saffron]

Hey bud

[rugged cape]

Hey

[signal saffron]

[weak sparrow]

[soft remnant]

How

[south elm]

wait and others can see it?

[soft remnant]

That's what I'm wondering cuz I want players to see my racing livery from irl

[south elm]

fr

i want people to see my livery

[soft remnant]

This is closest to my trailer

Although this is good enough

But it'll be nice if someone knows how to do it cuz I've been wanting it done for while now

[rapid warren]

Stokes isnt a real company... so why do we have game trailers in a IRL trucking channel?

[soft remnant]

I'm using the trailer as a reference not the company

[ivory patrol]

@formal minnow Guess who slept again 2hrs

[formal minnow]

[formal minnow]

So it took 2 hours to change a trailer?

[ivory patrol]

Nuh uh i was sleeping

[formal minnow]

So u went to sleep when h shouldnt have

Is what hr saying

[rapid warren]

Well, I do can sleep much in my job as well and getting paid very well

[ivory patrol]

Nah, i started at 7 then i drove 1hr near the place where i could change the trailer, then i was told that i could change at 11 o clock

[formal minnow]

[cobalt onyx]

No need to spam it in every channel, it only makes YOU look bad and makes the ban look even more justified

[rugged cape]

Cry about it

[rugged cape]

Hate driving with race trailers

They are often so low

[ivory patrol]

Big ass cab. You can stand there fully

[raven gate]

[formal minnow]

I mean j can fully stand in my iveco too

Even stabding on the motor

(I cant standup in drivers seat as ill get knocked down by the steering wheel)

[ivory patrol]

i can stand on both

[frozen trout]

You can take Capri to the upper bed

[ivory patrol]

He doesnt like to sleep

[frozen trout]

Oh then

[frozen trout]

Is the truck bed nice to sleep ?

Like is it cozy or does it feel like you're laying in puolijoukkue teltta on top of puunjuuri's

[ivory patrol]

It feels like you sleep on top of havuoksapatja

[frozen trout]

Masterpiece

[formal minnow]

Same

[formal minnow]

Dont have

[formal minnow]

@jade tangle

[manic crest]

Im gonna click this

[ivory patrol]

I have double bed muehehehe

[formal minnow]

I dont

Wich is a +

Can sit up straight on bed

[raven gate]

yh thats a super space

i have got like the smaller version

[ivory patrol]

Why would you do that

[raven gate]

the deed

[ivory patrol]

Yeah its nice, but dont really need that much space

[formal minnow]

Idk

[ivory patrol]

Cringe

[manic crest]

Why would you

[ivory patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/bro-you-just-posted-cringe-gif-18218541

[lean oracle]

Same, and am sometimes like: maybe get bedding for too bed too, chill on bottom when waiting and sleep on top as it’s wider, and then I go sleep and not even use the whole width fully

Altoygh if top one is a tad longer that be nicer as I now wake at night sometimes with my feet on the little end of bed storage thing that’s on the side but same height as bed, and that’s cold

[ivory patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/bro-you-just-posted-cringe-gif-18218541

[lean oracle]

Nah, I just am a chest sleeper so like my feet be stretched too so unless I wanna be headbutting the “headrest”

If I’d be back sleeper it be fine but so far I just tsleep fine below lol

[ivory patrol]

The bottom bed is bigger, atleast in daf

[rugged cape]

I took mine out thank god

[lean oracle]

Not in Volvo, same size technically but the top doesn’t have the cutouts but also not bed ends like bottom wich got some storage cubby’s

Not much but enough I hit em

[formal minnow]

Cant turn over in ur bed otherwise?

[rugged cape]

It just takes unnecessary space

[formal minnow]

That aswell

[ivory patrol]

No need to take it out

[ivory patrol]

Thats weird. in daf the top one is smaller, its same width as me🤮

[lean oracle]

Lol

Your either really wide or it’s small as frick

[ivory patrol]

In space cab its 600mm wide and in superspace is 700mm wide

[rugged cape]

More space

[ivory patrol]

you can store stuff in there

[rugged cape]

True but I live in here

Want space to move

[ivory patrol]

How its on the way

[rugged cape]

For my head

And my arms

Maybe you are small and don't lift weights buddy

[lean oracle]

Why are ya lifting weights in the truck tough?

[rugged cape]

Idk why do people lift weights buddy

[lean oracle]

Yeah but meant as is exercize could do it outside too right? If cold just exercise harder

[ivory patrol]

Im normal 185cm

[ivory patrol]

You dont bench on your bed?

[rugged cape]

You can do it where you want and I choose to do it here since I have space

So little space with the top bunk

What's the use of it anyway noone can fit in it

[ivory patrol]

Thats why you can get cabinets

[rugged cape]

There already are cabinets

[ivory patrol]

I know i drive one

[lean oracle]

No

[manic crest]

I think in my scania the top bed is wider

[solar cave]

English only here, please, per #discord-rules
2.1. English is the only language permitted unless stated otherwise.
Thank you.

[manic crest]

1 meter vs 800mm

[ivory patrol]

80cm i doable if youre not murican

[manic crest]

But the bottom one you can extend to 1m too

[formal minnow]

Im 99% certain he just said the location lmao

[rugged cape]

Yeah and I have the big cabinets which means there's barely space to store anything and there is not any space to sleep

[rapid warren]

Changed bulbs today - hecc am I proud of myself

[rugged cape]

You need to lift the cab for that

[rapid warren]

It is lifted.... as you can see

[lean oracle]

they dont got the stairwell seperate like us hence no plate that can be taken off xd

[rugged cape]

It was meant as a question

[rapid warren]

Well then, yes - I have to lift the cab, as the lamp box is exactly behind the doorsteps 😄

[lean oracle]

laughs in 4 things u turn

[rapid warren]

[manic crest]

@ivory patrol hi

[ivory patrol]

Not me. I dont drive those little things

[manic crest]

Yea I know

[formal minnow]

Little driver little truck

[ivory patrol]

Its ya boi skinny🍆

[formal minnow]

Thats why i drive iveco

They only got massive ones

Gonna have a nice worked out upperbody by summer driving this

[regal comet]

why is the trailer developed by nasa

[formal minnow]

Cuz just like the moonlanding

Its fake

[ivory patrol]

Schmitz is the best one you can get. That trailer alone weighs like 7-8 tons

[formal minnow]

Thats not bad for a fridge

[ivory patrol]

Yeah it weighs like a tarp trailer but luckily its not

[formal minnow]

Must be the reason all white plate banditos

Use schmidt mainly

Can load more weight

They overload em anyways but still

[ivory patrol]

Common w

[ivory patrol]

Its super light. Like this front trailer made by schmitz weighs ~8tons. And the rear trailer too. Then +the dolly its like ~19-20tons

+the truck weight ofc

[formal minnow]

So empty weight of lets say 32 or so

[ivory patrol]

Idk what the truck wiehgs

[manic crest]

wtf I didn’t even notice that

[formal minnow]

Probably 8-10 tons?

Probably more towards 8

[ivory patrol]

Then i swapped to VAK front trailer and i was like is this loaded already (weighs 11.5t)

[manic crest]

Fin

[formal minnow]

Like ud notice 3/4 tons difference

[ivory patrol]

I did

[formal minnow]

I only notice it downhill in neutral

Cuz then we go bit faster

[ivory patrol]

8.6 yeah

[formal minnow]

Yeah

Lightweight

[ivory patrol]

29t when not loaded

[formal minnow]

I think my truck is like 12 tons empty

Need to fuelup tomorrow

I fueled up monday but geuss i didnt fully fill it

Istg i hope the poles have enough people

[ivory patrol]

We have to fuel up 2 times a day

[formal minnow]

To load me

[formal minnow]

Yeah but

2 times a day both fridge trailer dont count

[ivory patrol]

i meant the truck

[formal minnow]

How

[ivory patrol]

It has 400l tank and it gets driven 1000km per day

[formal minnow]

Yeah ok

[summer valve]

🤏 fueltank

[formal minnow]

But like does it use that much

To need 800l on 1000km?

[ivory patrol]

Yeah

It takes some fuel when your rpm is 1500 constantly and if there are some hills it goes up to 2000

[lean oracle]

not bad, my truck with a container chassis plus a empty container on it is like 15n half tons

so like 13tons empty?

[ivory patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/dancing-truck-gif-25224988

You mean like this one

[lean oracle]

no truck with trailer

slider chassis and our fixed 40ft ones are heavy sliders cuz yeah but our 40ft chassis are basically 30ft tank chassis that got made bigger, from factory but yeah so theyre quite strong n heavy

[manic crest]

America units ewww

[formal minnow]

Normal in container world

[manic crest]

Didn’t know

Still eww tho

[formal minnow]

Yes

[ivory patrol]

How many big macs is that by eagle scream

[formal minnow]

500?

Nah probably less

[ivory patrol]

Like 690

Nice

[blissful locust]

fin fin fin

[formal minnow]

If its a fat american one

[fleet basin]

I have 450l tank and can do 1300kms 😂

[ivory patrol]

🧢

[fleet basin]

35l/100km long time avarge

[ivory patrol]

Same

[fleet basin]

Turku- tampere fully loaded can be 37l/100km and empty from tampere to porvoo 20l/100km

[formal minnow]

I do that on lees

I did 1400 on 330 liter or so

[ivory patrol]

Depends what you weigh

[fleet basin]

Yep

[formal minnow]

I had this happen to me thus morning

Wood went sliding

And the cans of paint where inbetween

So i got a New paintjob now

[lean oracle]

tbf the cans shoulda been on a pallet and wrapped or smth

[raven gate]

Bro

Its a single can

That would take up so much room

[lean oracle]

well shoulda perhaps strapped it to somth else vs loose in truck

[frozen trout]

Well by the looks, your trailer had space for small pallet

On front of the planks

[raven gate]

It would have still broken

Since they got smashed

[raven gate]

It did not fall over or anything

It got squished

I should have took a picture when it was squised

[frozen trout]

But like here

[raven gate]

Fam

There was wood there

Thats why the cans are squished

I took this picture after i took the wood out that squished the cans

There was a whole pile of wood there asswell

[frozen trout]

Wait, wich way the woods slide

[raven gate]

[pseudo bone]

gotta keep up the pace

[formal minnow]

why bother turning on the lights

when its not even parked on the road

[pseudo bone]

some of them automatik turns on

p-light boxes

programmed to stay on, usually you need to turn the switches at the box

[lean oracle]

think they be setup if unhooked goes on as nowadays thats requirement if parking in certain places/ they be unhooking in places be dark youd hit them without seeing em lol

[pseudo bone]

yupp, usually when i park on sidewalks... i use the lights on so nobody hurts themself

last summer one guy ran straight at my trailer with a bike and broke helmet straight half, AND then told the police and ambulance "Does he pay this helmet"

i wish i could show one picture on Facebook group "Minä pysäköin pyörätielle" where was picture of my trailer on 200meters wide sidewalk + cyclelane.... but i got banned out of the group

[ivory patrol]

Yeah they ban people if they see that you are not braindead and you have common sense

[pseudo bone]

i saw that yeah 😄

[ivory patrol]

They are like "why would you not park on the road why you need to park on bicycle road"

[lean oracle]

park where its widest where u dont affect the majority of traffic, it meaning u park on a wide bike lane vs road wich got constant traffic

or park on road when itsm ostly bike traffic and no cars

[pseudo bone]

They think we can bring trailers everywhere we go

[lean oracle]

yea

i mean i had it with work van and a trailer at old job

parked in a parking spot teh trailer van on the road

dead end and last spot

[lean oracle]

had a person be like: u could go find the building manager to get the key for the poles in the bike lanes that can be removed , they like so u can park there, am like nah

Stop sleeping all the time

[formal minnow]

No sleep

No pillow to get comfy

[fleet basin]

Once had pic of our truck there. Was parked on wide sidewalk and was unloding to house next to it. There was enough room so you could go around it with bike. Now when in simimar places we park on road and then pull hose over the sidewalk and then block it with cones so noone runs over the hose with bike. So now they have to either carry the bike over or go on road to get past. 😂

[formal minnow]

Lol

[ivory patrol]

I dont see that group anymore

[glad peak]

I dont have my own unit at work yet so i cant leave stuff in the cab…i need a pillow so bad

My 800l fuel tank fills faster then this junk

[rapid warren]

ShitBlue... doesnt have a proper use and is just annoying. Simply wee in it

[ivory patrol]

Thats why i coded it off

[rapid warren]

Is illegal here. If caught the company and driver can pay a hefty fine

[formal minnow]

Lmao

[rapid warren]

It's true. AdBlue could be name AddPiss (toTruck)

[formal minnow]

Adblue tank? Nah ✨employee restroom ✨

[rapid warren]

[blissful locust]

solution to environment damaging plastic bottles🗿

[ivory patrol]

Not if you dont get caught

[formal minnow]

Just make sure the tank isn’t empty

[ivory patrol]

and change the fluid sometimes

[formal minnow]

No

[ivory patrol]

f u

[rapid warren]

Austria is a critical country regarding this. I don't wanna risk shit.
Also, we have a 1000l AdPee tank in our company - so simply refuel and pay nuthing.... so why complaining? Glad my car is not with AdPee yet.

[ivory patrol]

Idk wasnt talking about trucks

[rapid warren]

same goes with cars... if you code it out - may it be buses, cars, trucks, tractors and what the hell devices use adblue - you are going to have serious problems.

[ivory patrol]

I know its illegal bruh but dont just get caught

[rapid warren]

hard to do if our police is allowed to pull people out randomly

and fleeing makes you suspect so....

simply let the car untouched and you are good to go

[lean oracle]

They are everywhere just usually don’t check engine noise or emissions

[rapid warren]

they do sometimes in here as well - if they suspect it

they can do what they want

[lean oracle]

Engine noise maybe if u driving n be loud car or if they do big controls pulling vehicles off for taxes n everything where it’s multiple agencies

[peak salmon]

Found this while having my 9 hour layover

https://tenor.com/view/get-blown-up-dog-dog-explosion-sticky-notes-gif-17071604041793579031

Yeah like this

[peak salmon]

Nop

[ivory patrol]

It is

Explosions everywhere

[formal minnow]

No front plate

Most likely us military

[peak salmon]

Nope, part of scanias test laboratory division

And those trucks aren't allowed here without special permission, the US military would use European trucks, the only one that won't be European are their personnel trucks

[formal minnow]

False

they use american trucks aswell

not allowed is nonsense as plenty of people have imported and use american trucks on the daily

[ruby thistle]

Thats cap us military are using there own trucks

[ruby thistle]

It is a swedish truck that Scania drives

[formal minnow]

They also do indeed use european brands

Mostly base base kinda transport is proper military trucks trailers

[ruby thistle]

Mostly they use they own trucks i met a convoy of then and they only drove us trucks

[formal minnow]

other types of transport of them im geussing supplies etc they just use european merc / scania usually

with us plates and us trailer

[formal minnow]

probably camo'd trucks then

so proper transport of equipment etc

they usually just use american trucks as they got them on base

[peak salmon]

Mate I know my country's laws

The truck or the whole combo, including the tractor unit may not exceed a certain length, and American trucks that aren't day cabs and short wheel base would have an immensely difficult time getting around

[formal minnow]

okay

doesnt mean its illegal

[peak salmon]

It is?

The law prohibits a certain length

[formal minnow]

Okay and?

The tractor itself can be 12 meters if they want to

[peak salmon]

You're wrong

[formal minnow]

• short trailer

and then even they can file for year round length permits

theres a few massive american trucks driving around in europe that are legal

there is plenty of dutch people / germans that i know off

that run fullsize american trucks

i even saw one this morning lol

[peak salmon]

First, those American trucks would need a whole exhaust and filtering rework to comply with EU emissions regulations unless getting a permit (or owning one in ireland) and Torpedo cabs are under the max length a truck may be, hence why the nose isn't as huge as the American ones. Furthermore, it is highly ineffective for the US army to transport a Peterbilt to Sweden for usage, cause I know for a fact that supplies and military vehicles are transported with European lorries

Yes, you can own, yes it's not illegal as long as it complies with tractor unit max length then combination max length.

[formal minnow]

a whole ass exhaust rework is bullshit

[peak salmon]

So the truck I had a picture of is owned by scania

[peak salmon]

Nope

[formal minnow]

depending on the year theyll just be given a emission sticker

e1/2/3/4/5/6 depending how clean it is

[peak salmon]

They would need a European complying filtering system

Cause new trucks MUST follow latest emissions standards

🥀

Anyways I got work to do

[formal minnow]

most new american trucks fit our emission standards

theres a quite new peterbilt driving around in netherlands

thats euro 6 lol
