Thats a normal wheelbase lol
and a normal sized sleeper
@thorny folio
ur a american u can probably confirm
Thats long asf
Why would anyone want nosy truck
Is air force drives around with a Scania but us trailer
Not American, but yes it's American average sized
Knockoff american then
idk why u keep comparing me to the wannabe canadians
Then what are u 
Canadian
So an American
your swedish
What continent is Canada in?
"North" America, or from the the americas, calling canadians "American" is considered very disrespectful here, and we make that very known.. so please cease
we dont like it, and many of us are willing to die on that hill.. and unfortunately lately.. somewhat literally
Let me guess, you call people from Europe Europeans, people from Asia Asians, etc.
and people from north america, North Americans.. american is a name we do not want associated with us, so please, dont
North America, South America, both are still America 
im not engaging this, i told you our views on being called american, we dont like it
But you called me a Swede sooo

to prove a point, i am not 🇺🇸 , i am 🇨🇦
when you call me 🇺🇸 , i call you 🇸🇪
ik ur a fin, i am canadian
You could have just said to not call you that. But hey, if you wanna call me a Swede, I don't mind it. I'll just call you American then 
i apologize for calling you a swede, i am not american, do not call me such
its just a very annoying argument
Okay, I will not call you an American from now on. Sorry that I called you that
Boat
Do you lift it to the sea or
Lifted it on a trailer at the port, it had been at a workshop for repairs
Oj that is a fin fin FH4
The 500 HP Raka6 is sooooooooo good, it pulls almost as good as a 560 V8
I'm in a 19 week course to take my license C+CE (C single truck, CE truck with trailer)
The 500 i-Shift is soo good.
The power is crazy, the gearbox is so smoooth
Loaded up to 43tons
The i-shift is somewhat okay, I preferr the dual clutch but those usually come on either their 700 HP or the performance editions
I personally like opticruise with the 3.80 adjustment
The retarder is sooooo good at that setting
I'm like 70% sure that this volvo has a dual clutch or atleast according to my driving instructor O_O
I might be wrong but
We have a Scania Opticruise, 6 series, but it's being phased out 😭
Replaced by Next Gen Scania, with the new dash
Hooklift
usually says it on the side with those chrome letters
Aaah
Yea my school had one but it was for the adults getting their C-CE license
and it was also a hooklift, but it had the container with the hooklift chassi adaption to the container
oooooooo
Well, i'll be driving the Scania I think once, we will switch with another group on a long trip and drive the other group's truck back
Is 500S Next Gen any good? 😂
Depends on the engine
But like, if its the premium interior with either the digi or regular premium dash before the full screen dash, yea, both are good.
And the SUPER engines which are just more uptuned Inline6's is also really good, they do pull.
What's you guys favourite truck??
Scania S 770 
Volvo FH6 if we talk about new trucks, if we go to the older trucks, def Scania 143M
Nice choice
idk any canadian who is nice when they get called american
its literally used as an insult where i live, has been for years
lol
@ivory patrol how many stages does the retarder in your daf have
Wtf is that
Sorry england is not my city
Yes
The right stick behind the steering wheel
scania
Either DAF F241 or DAF XF105
Its kinda pointless
Yeah but at 60-70t its kinda pointless
I only use the auto feature of the retarder🤔 Only using the lever does almost nothing when loaded😅
This
And we dont have the bigboi retarder
Only cheap one
Ive heard that scanias proper one works fine even with 76t
Same but then there’s the button to press n it shifts down and then it really goes aggressive and actually will also automatically use the trucks brake
I bet yeah
Unless u start usung it 2km+ before place u gotta be slow
Yea, and on downhill it doesnt help at all
Ive not really driven truck on a hill yet so wouldnt know
Buy one
Suomi
Everyone has 400,000 € pocket money
Happened to me that the AdBlue system broke and it put a speed limit at 20 km/h and I needed to drive 45 km to the truck service and it took over 2 hours and there was like 3 kilometers of traffic behind me 💀
Bruh
Why no mechanic come to fix it temporarily/ disable it so it drives normal speed to garage
Because it would be very very very expensive
And I work in small company
Thank god we have some scania gold premium plus super thingy that covers that kinda stuff
At least I got a Scania now and don’t need to use that Atego bullshit that always has some problems
👌🏻
Aa ooks suomalaine
Yahnt
Nah he ei oo
?
?
Juu
i don't understand a single word you two said but oke
Eh
Cheaper then getting stopped by police
Getting an exspensive ticket for being a danger on the road
Then forced to stop and be towed
They don’t really even care, there are cars driving 50 km/h on 80 km/h road and police doesn’t do anything

fancy irl trucking?
Yesss haha, going to the NZ truck show with the crane truck! 
Actually a Toyota Yaris overtook me with 160 km/h speed last night
@ivory patrol
Nice hakealusta and satama area youu have there
I was waiting for the hakealusta. Gobless
hakele whaat?
You heaaaard me
what does it mean
Why is your dolly so low
Oh makes sense
Is that 8x4 or 8x2
Thats so nice, you can haul so many flowers
Idk if Peksi was chasing 76tn weight but didnt realize dolly + semi dont work like that
Full veggie load though was 67tn total weight 💅
Because it looks like this woodchip chassis (hakealusta) and ive deriven this truck
oh
This was supposed to be an hooklift chassis but the company who ordered it went bankrupt
So they decieed to slap a whopping 9.6m inner lenght VAK box on it and call it a day
so before hooklift got send to chassis build up company urs bought it and put reefer on it?
i mean i bet the truck itself can weigh with them 4axles total like 35tons or smth ?
35tn ye
Trailer only 30 something
lol
32 iirc because the max weight for this combination is 68tn
Yeah thats true. Still waiting for our new 6x4 so we can haul 2x mallaskuorma. Sasinmäki gonna be horrible
Thats why i always overload it by 1 ton
Nice
It would be 76t if the trailer had double tires
Duh
Just buy extra set of tires
Whhos omakotitalo you at
Idk someone who ordered YOUNG PLANTS
Ok so it was Drake
And thats all she wrote for tonight, time to go home
Nice hakealusta you have there
Ultimate jakotykki
7 places today

Distribution demon
Do you even do 10h days
Looks like they got you doing the easy work huh cupcake
This was my longest day. 17,5hrs lmao
tf 
My wheels took off
Piss numbers tbh

No flex but my longest day is 37h
The company who put the onspots took off the wheels and didnt mention it so
lol
you're missing something there mate
Like WHAT?!
one of those rolley bits
whatever theyre called
oh i see youve harvested one from the forest
Why would 2 Finns speak English with each other
Rules
💀
Lucky guy
The warm-hearted driver invited me to visit. Also the first time visit the scania cabin irl 
So you are saying it's not your vehicle you drive?
Just a little bit of sand wouldnt hurt
Or a pair of ice skates
Please keep it to English only here, per #discord-rules
2.1. English is the only language permitted unless stated otherwise.
Thanks 
Is that inex

Very cool stuff
Average road in Belgium
If u guys are going on a boat and they want to fasten ur truck do u guys let the air out?
Shouldnt matter
as they would presumably secure via either straps over the wheels or axles
securing it any other way aired down or not would put alot of extra wear and tear on suspension parts
Koleka is back
@formal minnow Guess what
Ye thats wrong u should put your air out
On a ferry or boat you should, as over night sometimes air would drop if just normally parked, rocking on boat maybe more. Main factor is if you don’t and they chain it down and air drops the chains become loose
Most trailers have a icon at air suspension of when boat drop it
This is my job

Shut your 🅱️roke🍑 up
wow guys if is not a secret how much money per month you earn?
Atleast 2€
many very many
money
not enough
3k€ so dont even think about trucking
damm u earn 3k?
im 14...
my company screwed me over
country
so now im not getting a payrise till june if im lucky
Finlato🇫🇮
Yeah its the bottom line. Sometimes more
Well how well you live now
good im near to moldova, far from belarus, russia
How cool is that they made real country from dayz
Thats crazy
Crazy? I was crazy once, they locked me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats, and rats make me crazy
who, rusians
Nah dayz creator is from new zealand
ok
Boating season 2025 started now 
bcs im never play this game
As if a base model Skoda Karoq is a expensive car to buy 
Its not an base model tho
Still a cheap crossover 
Dont think its cheap per se
You shouldve bought 3b/bg passat with 1.9tdi
How much more is the diesel tax
My old audi 3L v6 tdi was like 670€ year
Do you live in london country
okay depending on van roadtax isnt too bad
Blud really bought a crossover with 1.0 liter engine

but theres other taxes that make it pricy
No
And?
What country you conquer rn
You got that right
we conquer it all
dutch ftw
Even the rental Yaris I got atm has a bigger engine with more power 
Probably better equipment too 
Škoda is pretty good when it comes to equipments
116hp. Vs your 115hp 
You should see the equipment on the Yaris. It's a base model and it's got really good equipment
Yeah but its toyota
So, it's a reliable car, perfect for a daily
Boring and always doing weird shi in front of me
As if your weak crossover is any faster to accelerate 
Definetly not
Definitely is
No
What's your cars 0-100kmh then?
idfk
Must be over 10 seconds then
maybe it is maybe its not
Is there somthing wrong If u look in #irl-media
what
Look in irl media and tell me If there is somthing wrong
No
@formal minnow See im working
Barely
Wtf you 🅱️rokie boi
Nuh uh
Just kidding ive been just drinkin coffee for 1hr

If you dont see me in this server i have been banned. But i wanted to say that i like your carr
Why would u be
2 warnings
Oh
how much does it cost to fill that beast?
if you dont mind me asking
obviously i know it depends on fuel prices
Idk about beast but it has 400L tank and diesel is 1.7€-1.9€/L?
L
i had to check what truck that was ingame by the door haha its a daf XF right?
Yeah
Tedem tedem
Volvo worse
Meh I drove daf for driving school n Volvo now
Don’t mind either one
Although I think daf seat don’t drop as much air I feel mine at points just drops a tad n stays like it so I have to raise with button again when driving but idk could be that it’s a 8 year old truck
@ivory patrol check ur dms
Or the fact ur fat
STFU
Nice laptop. Its just like me
Yea its pretty good
No, because its predator
I know it works nice
I have problem of finding space for my mouse look at this shit
Yeah but if you only play ets2 you dont need mouse
Het one of those half cushion things with a plastic board on top
It’s for eating on couch n shit for instance do it’s level n all
Probz works
Just wide so idk if it works with seat n foot space
Put the laptop on top of that and your mouse where your lapttop is now
Also you should check out this awesome merch
Lmao
Today we fixed on my Koleka van the Disco on the dash
And maybe mention then what your time is cuz time zones
Why the text looks so outdated when your sprinter is atleast 2019 model
Look my roles are good
CET it seems
last week it was in Scania Services because cardan shaft’s support bearing…. Exploded…. Then it was changed and left bit loose i found out when i was greasing the cardan shaft😂😂 i was like this seems bit loose was swinging like a mf

those things are all in rough use🙄
i forgot to say those problems were paid by ”Scania” not out of company
Not meant for work use
lol
geuss whos not gonna be sold scanias by said dealer next time
Thats why you get sisu
the company is getting 5 Scanias 3 Volvos this spring
i just hope the Scania doens't come with the Smart dash
please and thank you
i would take Sisu anyday 101%
older 2+2 (8x4) FMX's Volvos getting rid off
I genually wonder for all truckers here how can yall drive for 15+ hours and on break play AGAIN trucking game 😭 i never understood it-
If you are getting new ones then its 100% sure smart dash as its only option now 
I dont play ets
Or ats
I played it when i wasnt a truck driver
I think i speak for most of the truckers here
Yep yep. Haven't opened ets in years 🤔
When I started trucking I more or less stopped playing ets2. even omsi2.
What kind of trailer is this btw? I never saw it and i cant get my head around it eaithet
regular fuel trailer with a dolly
what
That's a full length trailer. It doesn't have a dolly
When he says dolly he means that it got 1 attached to the trailer and it is 24 meters i belive so full length trailer whit a dolly
Aww man, i can just see the visits to scania because nothing works🙄
We have now 2 smart dash ones and they have problems almost daily 
But most can be fixed by switching mainpower off for 1min
Black screens etc.
Yeah but luckily noot everything is bbehind that screen
Ye only like 99.5% is
No not really, did you do something?
Maybe
What are you eating. Looks nice
Looks Casserole to me
Liha perunalaatikko as we know

Pls normal skin for Scania R
wrong chat
Definitely
Hey, I am not too sure if this is the best place to ask... But I am in the process of getting my class 1 license (UK) and I am watching a video of someone coupling a drawbar trailer. I think the non-coiled one is the ABS cable but are you meant to just leave it dangling like that? He never goes back later in the video to do anything with it?
thats def not good, it can get snagged/drag and get damaged
definetly supposed to tie it off to the other cables or something so it isnt dragging so low ot the ground/can get snagged
Yeah, I thought it looked odd. Thanks! 👍
probz a cable from a diff trailer thats further from the truck or such hence it isnt the right size, also looks like that trailer be slid in a tad more before driving off as its pretty far back , so then it would be fully dragging
I think they're called wag and drags, but do they all use this drawbar system?
no. trailers behind a rigid truck with a box or whatever can have different types, theres also the one where it has a steering dolly type on front and then rear axle, dunno how they be called exactly at moment
Oh the same ones you get on the American truck long load trailers?
no, this is for like long trailer so box truck with full size trailer, theres also where its hard mounted basically and doesnt come off
here theyre called schammel wagen
idk where u live how they called there
I think I've seen some tractors use them as well
yes that but then basically bigger n for trucks
Alrighty, thanks for the help! 🙏
this u driving? 
Got a good deal. Half assembled chassi that got canceled in the right color options. Got a lot of free shit in the deal. Would went with a regular FH5 if it made sense.
u the owner of it then or
Financed obviously
nice
Ofcourse
British Problems. In Austria the Cables need to have a special ammound of length. If that not aloud to pull.
New gig
Oh damm u quit?
Yes
DSV😂
Sharps Valhalla is gone 💔😩
It’s a hell to drive these
Ferry fuel express 
Traitorr
Koleka van meet
no more dogshit daf
Laying pipe
someone stands out from the group? 
right one, becuase different olour and not an XT
right one was Scania showtruck that's why its different colour and not an XT + whole truck is on air suspension which is good
i hope the Volvo gets dynamited in million pieces, its like driving blindcow at horserace... as 76ton total weight it should be crime to use 540 as motor
Thank god i dont have to drive volvo
Thank god i dont need either
DAF
Pennala, the best place to be (as long as it's not Rautakesko)
Hardly working
I do rautakesko every night now
Schenker flying 😎 🤚
If you see our driver, say hi to him 
Next shift tuesday but sure
God damn I love not having to deal with a paper mess
And her
yea, simple but awesome
Not too many lights
just the right amount
The flat roof is kinda iffy though
cant stand up there, not that I really need to since we dont sleep in the trucks
But takes time to get used to after a DAF
I personally like how flat roof trucks look when modified
The Volvo itself takes time to get used to
the electric steering assist or whatever makes it feel really wacky
i mean a nice flat roof with a rack on it vs a wind deflector or shit can look nice yea
It's so nice when reversing tho
mine aint got it, assume it just turns easier from dead still?
It's light af
mhm so if u be stationary and gotta move no pulling steering at all to move it?
I dont feel much difference from normal scania steering and volvo electronic steering
but its good
well if both got electric its probz same but i got hydraulic on mine so hence tad curious
Why no folding liftgate
Where would u fit one
Behind the rear axle like any truck/ trailer thats got one?
That'd be a downgrade in pretty much every way
How so
Does the same job while requiring more work. It's like comparing a hooklift to a cable lift
It has an swap container body, cant fit
Been a long time since i posted here. Swapped jobs and now drive with a walking floor, mostly doing garbage and woodchips
zamn
Take @jade tangle with you then, he’s useless either way here so fits fine in the back, leave him wherever u desire 😂
Not only that, folding tailgates cant handle as much weight
I wouldnt be unloading a big heavy pallet on one of those anyways
Too sketchy with how small it isnt
Is
Not sketchy at all
But the tailgate is max 1500kg?
We have 3 ton ones even here
But those be on trucks n ramp is bottom to top of truck so quite big ones

Guys!
I’m from the UK and wanting to do my trucking license.
What’s the best way to go about it?
a driving school
I can’t be mad
Straight.
Pay it in luonnossa
mans way
I always do my payments like that
Decided to post again
Government drones inspecting the truck
🇨🇿 750 😴
Needs a wash
same issue n mine, yesterday cntainer had sme dirt water or something on it, now half my truck is black/brown

Long boys
Rautakesko 
Been spotted
is it spotted if its ur m8 waiting?
2h15min loading, jesus
22m of stuff
Fun time, aye?
Yea, still a bit challenging
Need to get used to nyytti
And how to stack efficiently
I have a ridicilous amount of stuff every night
18-24m
Different size pallets, big heavy etc
I know the feeling. I've driven Rautis myself 
It takes so long to load that its crazy, last job normally took me maybe an hour max to load the full combination, that is including everthing from disconnecting to connecting
Best is when the stuff is scattered all around the place. My longest loading was like 5 hours 
Stuff was scattered around 4 different floor slots plus the cages for those 4 slots as well 
What made it worse was that there were stuff that wasn't for me on those slots as well. So glhf looking at everything to make sure it's for you
Yesterday 1h50min because I only had 18m and pretty much only grill palletw
Today over 2h, 30min of it spent trying to find 1 colli that was hidden under another customers stuff
Idk much about trucks in real life but i have a small question
Do the truck drivers strap down the things themselves on open trailers or do the workers loading it on strap it?
like flatbed trailers
Depends. Sometimes the driver, sometimes the loader, sometimes the driver is the loader too.
Thank god they have me an HCT trailer
thanks
Why wouldnt I always take an HCT trailer if available
Fits more stuff, easier to load and no problems to fit
Rude
I wanna sleep
But i gkt a real job
I dont get to sleep fkr hours
Unlike u 
Mostly the drivers do it, sometimes it happens that the company does it, but in my experience 95% to 99% is done by the driver, as the driver is the one responsable for the load once its loaded, so he is also the one responsible for the strapping, if its pre strapped its for the driver to check if its correctly/savely done
spotted, there was a spotter
because its a hotspot for modified vans and kolekas
Oh lol
Thanks
That's cool
`oh yea you guys gotta wait instead of it auto skipping
whats the difference
Like 70 atleast modified
Longer and turning axle
All have it, yes
Do walking floor, get loaded by crane, and trailer unloads its self
Or become @lucid birch and never get out of your cabin
I also just sit and wait when loading and unloading, only have to open and close the roof and open and close the doors
Tippers don't even do that (unless it's a dusty load)
Fake tipper driver 
Roof has to be closed after loading, no matter what, or i'm to high, for unloading it depends on the load if it needs to be opeb
Onky for stuff thats loaded high up and has a risk of carrying sharp goods the roof has to be open
When I drove a tipper, I only got out to put on/off the top tarp if I had a gravel/sand load.
here we got environmental bs
so even clean dirt basically not contaminated and u have to have the covers over
Pov you're having a shit day
I run quarries all day that's why it's dirty like this
Work smart not hard
That aint smart....
If it fits it ships
Im so jealous of European rigs. I'd love to be able to drive a scania. Maybe now that us-canada relations are going to shit we'll start importing trucks from the eu. Fingers crossed😅
Why not
Its just hanging for ease of strapping once a pallet goes in im geussing
if its that, then yeah, thats fine - I did that as well
but if it comes to securing... it aint secure then
That's.... correct, yes.
It holds so it does its purpose
One strap broke so the bed tilted right wish is not comfortable sleeping
Well and I slept and tested it it holds my big fat body good
if I were the police I'd warn you for not securing correctly
Sometimes I feel shame for my colleagues at GO 😄
What does have go to do with my company? I am from different company but I drive on contract for go it has a go livery but I drive for many companies in contract
Cool
Some drivers are just the last thing I wanna meet 
Well I hate go Austria and some in east germany
Horrible
Go Poland, Czech and NL is way better
new coupling head got rid off the shitty VBG 🤪
if you think so 
I driven trucks before switched to vans due to lost license
I made my opinion through experience
Let alone I am thankful to not drive to Austria because off the ridiculous laws out there for modifications
I am not even wondering about that.... 
its good the way it is
otherwise we have all that blinkyblinkycrap in our cars like you do (which is totally overdone and illegal and espicially distracting and dangerous!)
Well sooner or later I reobtain my license back for truck through my lawyer
clean for the first time this week
Your opinion
Which is as valid as yours
Why you mad
I am tired, but not mad
in german traffic it counts a truck so ig here also ^^
Well it’s a crane truck
So a truck
we got like 2 Liebherr, 1 Grove, 3 Mercedes(a crane version,normal version and heavy version) then also a Scania with mobile crane at the back 👍 (and more at other Company Places)
Neat, so you do in construction or
Question is tho, do YOU drive that?
yeah this Company is like for Heavy Transportation, example many Concrete blocks/other concrete stuff, also Wind turbines (these are like the biggest ones the company got)
at this job i didnt sadly... i did drive it tho :)
well looks like they aint getting there package todaxy
yes thabk you for that lovely observation but i work for the site he was delivering to and i thought hey actual truckers may like this
youd he surprised they moved the load from the trailer into another and had it tipped
Or you could delete it yourself 
thats effort
Clearly
@jade tangle look up, work time for you, dont make me send @blissful edge after you
I assume he drives that truck
i said look up, take a scroll
Could've done it yourself as well to be fair. And honestly, just because of that;

And on this note I got weekend
@summer valve lovely night fir some rautakesko
Saturday after-work.. clean for now 
Spring is arriving, for real this time
Yeah, most of the time!
Indeed
ooooo no more daf xD

Gopro mount

old volvo interior so dated

classic
Im having a screwed month.. something new every week..
Clean
I wonder if the axle masses will be fine
Definitely will be overweight
I pushed 23m into the trailer alone
That was all that was left for the truck 😅

Taken with gopro
you dont have downhill speed control?
Agreed. Manual hill decent is better. I can stay fully of the brakes with almost any load. But the automatic shit will ride em till they burn
but its much more convenient in long descents
how so?
it uses the retarder
lol
Until it needs more than that..
It aint perfect. Nor is anyone of us as a driver.. but combine the tech and your brain and its dang near perfect
"Downhill speed control is designed for long periods of braking on downhill slopes. When downhill speed control is operating, the wheel brakes on the vehicle are completely
passive and cool."
it only uses the retarder/engine break
Depends on the brand of truck.. and once you cannot hold back. It will A use the friction brakes or B not keep the speed down
Some of them sure do
not scania
Mate Ive used the feature multiple times in a Scania...
for the truck to have automatic downhill control it needs to have a retarder
Nope..
clearly you are wrong then
CRB also gets it..
Mate the 660 i drove last week has it. It can be disabled. But still thats an even worse option to just manualy driving.
okay but how would you even test that it uses the normal brakes?
Theres an indicator light.. and you feel the brakes engage..
yes the engine brake
Dumbass
Yes first full enginebrake>kickdown enginebrake>frictionbrakes
Volvo does the same. The Scania system seems to be somewhat better at keeping off the brakes tho.
This guy🙃
Id love to see tsoi decend a 8% grade at 65ton GVW and not burn up his brakes or retarder
Same principles.. even slower and lower
His 40 tonner will do fine on engine and retarder alone
That might start getting interesting
Down a 30% grade 😏😏
Gopro mount, good day for some rautakesko
Brakepads go Brrrr
Wait you Finns run 76ton on 9 axle rite?
We hardstuck 74😅
Mines a 68 tonner. Longbogie front and back on the trailer
Do be like that.. got the 20 ton drive axle for a reason😏
Tipping a big load of fibre while overloaded aint great tho.. all the possibilities in the world to get stuck
Try a woodchip truck😅
Love watching bozos tip themselves stuck in easy situations
Untill it aint...
Sometimes the truck needs a nap. Unfortunately they really don’t like getting back up
I once dropped a trailer off the fifth wheel about 500 feet after leaving the dock door. I always double check the connection now
The trailer decided it wanted to try concrete swimming
Only ever had one messup which was 100% on me.
Lots of breakdowns tho..
This week was electrical on the forklift..
60 tonns never had a problem
10%
I have almost as poor spec as can be 
And brakes are included in scania service plan so 🤷🏻♂️
Don’t need a fancy dash if it still gives me all the info I need
I also prefer actual dials and whatnot to digital dashes
Digital dashes feel like too much at times
Luckily new ones we got have some extras
What kind of extras ya got?
Man, i had one time 60t on my walking floor wagon, even the retarder didin t maked face at those tones 😭
Like total the wagon and the truck not the load
Not much but compared to my truck new ones have lether steering wheel, smart dash, fridge
Mine just has leather seats and infontainment premium 
Noice
okay brokie
can go ahead and remove power steering while you are at it, can still steer without it
No need to be rude mate
just brutally honest mate
How about broken steering
Bearings gone out slowly
Fancy dash would be nice but doesnt really affect drivinh so idc.
Just because I like actual dials doesn’t mean I’m broke
Jokes on u i have both
In my car 
I just prefer it cuz it’s what I’ve grown up with and like the look of it better
** ur old **

there is still dials on that dash lol
I am not talking about the new smart dash
I was talking more about the speedometer dial or whatever the hell it’s called
Speedo
yes and the fancier dash has one with
the digital speedometer inside of it
The physical speedometer is nicer imo
Fun talk from the guy, retarder uses gears onto the drivetrain of the truck, ain’t no brakes being used, and engine brake does the engine so yeah, Volvo tough engine brake and hit button it starts shifting back and even then doesn’t use the trucks brakes, it will activate brake lights tough at that point
Detarder is fun to slow down slowly when someone didn’t let u past to then get infront and without noise or brake lights slow down
I know he is taking out of his ass
automatic downhill speed control never uses the brakes
The jakes on those long nose Kenworths and Peterbuilts are heavenly tho
it will go over the set limit without applying the brakes, I have already seen that
Who said anything about the auto downhill speed control
I thought it was about the retarders
Depending on mine if I have set, it goes 5 over and if it hits 7 or sum and is heavy loaded 45 tons it goes over tiny bit but then brake hit and it’s like okay downshift now
Goes fast and abrupt then 😂
yup
Yeah wish we had that here cuz uh yeah plenty tunnels I drive, scare the frick outta drivers 
Already messed about with train horn today
Fun times
The depression powered car, just as it gets fun, it brakes
No, I don’t wanna go over a 100downhill
How funny would it be to mount a train horn in a smart car
It’s a tunnel yes bit speed is nice to get out but it’s limited at 85 so no power anyways till it hits 85
I wanna get one for my tuk tuk
Probz horn blasters kit as 12v but wonder if it got like the wiring n all
If so I’m getting it
Back of box so more noise but not visible

I’d love to mount one on a bicycle and scare the hell out of pedestrians
You could tough, 12v system in a backpack, just bicycle won’t with dynamo produce enough power to run the compressor
Probz get a battery that can do it a few times and then be out n lugging it around
But also ear damage then 😂
Nah that close need that and muffler trust
Those are our standard loads here in Scandinavia..
Yall sound like you have 3 days experience
Its gear "driven" on every truck
But it still is a pump stator converter
First online store orders of the year… and here are the first impressions… i had 49tons of 0-8mm😂 i had to call the owner ”Do you really think this will fit on that cover” bruhhhh💀💀
xd
thats a shovel it outta truck type of tarp amount
there is room above
😂
Thank god it was already paid off so i just tipped it fast and left without leaving any trail
besides the massive pile blocking the driveway?
😂
Nahh i just left it way back where that mark was
im never accepting online orders again... shush
i mean
just dump it on their property and good enough
if they dont have a clear suitable spot 
not your problem
nahh i didn't bother to take any pictures i was so over with that bullshit
lol
Same man.. take too few pics at work
latest picture of my gallery is where buyer said "Yeah there is a large gravelpart where you can dump the trailer and truck" THE LARGE GRAVELPART was some sort of small decoration stuff next to shitty steep ditch
i had to dump there
Thanks for the circle
i wouldntve been able to find the gravel otherwise
meanwhile here they just tell em yeah dump it at the closest parking spot to said house
not on my driveway thanks

i mean i didn't notice it either in the first place, i thought there was some sort of place where i can turn and drive figure eight with my trailer on. 
i just scratched my head and i sighed monday monday
would ye be busy
Mate i could keep 45 cubes with my side tipper within that area...
Might be a bit finnicy but doable
but why bother
just tip it close enough to where customer wants
i wouldnt bother doing a fkload of extra work to try keep it in one area
it either fits or it dont
yeah the customer even wanted it all to stay in the gravel part not on asphalt :))))
Thats doable if its what
2/3 m3 of gravel or sand whatever
any more and its going off
i just said that's not possible he started to question why not......
and if it was sand
id rather have it on asphalt
otherwise u lose a good bit in between the gravel
"not possible cuz im not gonna do 20 mins of extra work "
it wasn't possible at all xD
people are stupid
like sure if i can get it as close to the place u want it
ill try my best if u ask nicely
but otherwise its going on the fkn curb
im just happy that my vacation continues for the next 2 weeks
if u hint ur giving money
sure
wherever u want it pal
and it better be 10 bucks atleast

nice
everytime those online buyers, they have never even seen big trucks, prob like Toyota Hilux max
Then they start to ask some stupid questions about why this why that
lol
i mean
i geuss if they just ask if its possible to tip a certain spot and asked nicely
vs demanding ull try
i mean its always possible to tip the stuff, but the thing is the customer happy about it
yeah
but as youngest driver, im always trying to be calm as possible but this companys older drivers i can just imagine
