But like

#

Scania to Volvo those people all o hear is how fancy nice they be

queen brook

#

Yeah i agree the Volvo is much more quiet compared to a Scania, an engine not running as its currently in the Volvo workshop tends to be more quiet compared to an engine running such as Scania šŸ‘ŒšŸ»

lean oracle
#

yeah volvo is better, just some people dont realise that as theyre stuck up with scania "being better"

Okey if Volvo is "better" then feel free to tell my why?

patent bolt
formal minnow
#

its all about preferences

#

but i think volvo - scania is best if ur living in it all week

#

other then that it all depends on what u do job wise i geuss for wichever truck works best for said job

patent bolt
#

A lot is yes but when for example our Scania trucks keep outperforming our Volvo trucks when it comes to fuel economy then it's also engine wise, it also doesn't help that the Volvo trucks are too high tech for their mechanics to know how to fix that when you get any form of malfunction they stand there like a bunch of monkeys not know what to do

#

But yes, the bottom line is of course personal preference. There is people who prefer Iveco above all, Mercedes, DAF or whatever so yeah whatever floats your boat

that's my dads volvo

well if they dont and go someplace who cant fix it, they should go elsewhere lol

patent bolt
#

Oh so we should go to other places than Volvo Trucks to fix a Volvo truck you say?

lean oracle
#

bruh if its a dealer they dumb as shit

patent bolt
#

We service all our vehicles at the local autorized workshops and most of our vehicles are on a Gold service agreement or what its called

#

And I kid you not we have places where the Volvo Trucks workshop is so bad that the our fleet manager is in an agreement that we cannot station Volvo trucks in that town for that same reason, Scania or Mercedes are the 2 brands that we have gotten the okey to station there

Nah but for real Scania is better than Volvo when it comes to driveline intergration, fuel efficiency in heavy loads which results in lower fuel consumption per ton-kilometer, chassis and build quality, heavy-duty performance, more responsive throttle and clearer mechanical feel and the resale value is typically stronger and easier to resale.

Vovlo in turn has better cab comfort and ergonomics apparently (i personally don't agree about that one as I deem to sit better in a Scania or Mercedes for example), driver assistance systems, electronics and future tech

#

One thing I personally love about Scania is that you can pull out the bed to gain an extra 10cm ish so it becomes as wide as a regular single bed

Oh, a lot of our drivers tend to buy those stretchy like smaller straps from Biltema to hang them up around the drawbar to help with that here in the winter, might be something worth looking into for you as well?

Nope, nope, nope and nope

Dual clutch is obviously faster because it's a dual clutch which is something for exmaple other brands does not offer at the moment. If you compare the regular gearboxes the current opticruise shifts gears faster than the current regular I-Shift.

The driveline isn't all about gearshifts, it doesn't matter if the Volvo has dual clutch or not when it takes half a year for the truck to process that you're actually pressing the accelerator. Also Volvo may have won some Green Award driving on autobahn but notice that I said heavy loads, ergo not some 30 ton total weight in a small city but loaded at capacity in challenging terrain like for example up north

good evening

fringe sleet
#

Do you guys carry less weight in winter to account for any snow build up? Is it a common practice?

patent bolt
#

Nope

fringe sleet
#

I really thought that would be a thing

patent bolt
#

We can't take weather into account, we load the same amount of cargo no matter the weather and we bill the customer the same amount for said cargo. If we were to load less that means we can't bill the customer the same amount which in turn means that the truck does not generate as much money anymore

queen brook
#

As long as they can send the bill to the contract8r

patent bolt
#

Yeah but the dolly as well? Because I mean obviously if the scrape along the ground for too long you can break a cable or the air hose and that can be interesting

Ah oh I see yeah understandable then, however it can still mean a long night for you if you lose an air hose or power cable along your route because it was dragging on the ground shrug

#

Something cool about DSV buying Schenker is that we get new toys

patent bolt
#

Feels like they should because as I said you shouldn't be forced to load less just because the weather is bad because it all has to do with how much you and your truck can generate of an income

#

True but you didn't load yourself to be overweight, you loaded to be within the limit and it would be quite hard for them to prove if the snow got caught on your trailer prior to loading or not

rugged cape
# fringe sleet Do you guys carry less weight in winter to account for any snow build up? Is it ...

Yeah often if loading heavy stuff you have to be careful about that. Like yesterday I loaded 25 bigbags, had a total weight of 50,6 tons. if it was summer I definitely would've loaded one more bag.

Had a colleague in my Wiiks job load metal scrap until he was around 51 tons, he got stopped after 8 hours in snow and he was overweight over the margins. Max weight is 50 tons but there's a 2 ton margin, so if you pass 52 tons you're in trouble

That is more of your personal preference than legality as it is as others have already stated that if your tacho card is lost/stolen you are allowed to drive on a printout for up 15 days.

rapid warren

#

Driving to a workshop, MOT, movement within a closed off area/industrial estate, certain other things are also allowed such as if you transport fresh dairy products, live animals etc.

Key rule: The journey must be necessary for the vehicle or operation, not for the driver personally.

#

So according to the information I can find "if the driving benefits you personally, OUT is the wrong choice"

rapid warren
#

When I had my accident and had called the police, I asked the police woman "what if I want to drive my truck personally (i.e. only tractor unit) for shopping or taking it to a wash n' clean or whatever" and she said - the best practice is, take out the DTCO Card, put it in out, do your trip, make a print and write a statement.

Soooo it's police confirmed and that's how I do it.

patent bolt
#

So you heard it from one police officer that you're allowed to do something and you take that for granted without looking it up more? There also was 0 chance of that you misinterpreted her?

rapid warren
#

both police officers told me that. Also my colleagues (which do the same) approved that

patent bolt
#

If I were you I'd look it up myself because being fined and saying "Oh but he said she said he said it was okey" will not get you out from a fine

rapid warren
#

Already did that, don't worry. And I also visited my driving teacher from back then which approved it as well. So yeah, it's common practice. You cant do OUT if you do something for the company, only if private (i.e. going shopping, taking it to a wash or whatever)

patent bolt
#

"The legal reality (EU-wide)

Under EU Regulation 561/2006 and the EU tachograph rules:

OUT mode is allowed only when the vehicle itself is outside transport scope

That means:

  • Not used for carriage of goods
  • Not supporting a transport operation
  • Not driven for the driver’s private convenience

Driving to a shop to buy groceries:

  • benefits the driver personally
  • is not necessary for the vehicle
  • is not necessary for the transport operation

That does NOT meet the criteria for OUT."

formal minnow
#

sure its personal use but

#

i doubt a cop is gonna make problems out of it aslong as u drive without your trailer

i could drive my company truck for weeks

Theres always exceptions

#

i can take that truck right now

#

and be moving house for a week

#

and be totally fine to drive without tacho

#

and on out

rapid warren
#

Even my boss approved it - if i need it, I can take it - I just have to put it in OUT PES2_Shrug
Only thing I have to pay is Toll - but I dont drive on highways personally anyway so that part's out of scope anyway for me.

formal minnow
#

would be stupid to drive so far anyways

#

if ur just gonna get some groceries

rapid warren
#

exactly

#

the whole thing maybe needs... 20 ish mins anyway PES2_Shrug

ā€œExemptions are based on the vehicle’s real-world use and ownership, not on what the driver claims he’s doing this week.ā€

because not everything is like america

#

where u have to drive on a highway to get to a grocery store

wise thistle
#

I'm not even American

rapid warren
#

when I'm on out I usually go shopping with it - so 1 hr total time. And even if it were WITH card, I could do 15 hrs if I'd like.

#

also I prefer to drive on country roads when only on the road with the tractor unit for mind smoothness kek

#

also i dont want to pay toll kek shits expensive here lol

#

Do you drive internationally or just inside your country?

rapid warren
#

as of now, only regional šŸ˜„ but want to do international, but will push back that dream for a bit as of now šŸ˜„

little moss
#

International is good, you’ll enjoy it more. Only downside is being away from home.

rapid warren
#

I don't care as my boyfriend is with me anyway PES2_Shrug sooo I'm fine with that honestly. And as he also wants to do international, we can do a double-driver thing and pull off more KM / day Wesh

little moss
#

That works out well. At least he can come along. Ours is slightly different so she can’t come away with me to Europe in the truck due to insurance etc. I’ve never been in a double drive before anyway.

#

Especially Europe

rapid warren
#

Oh well - my current employer allows it, he just cant come with me when un/loading but he's fine with that.

little moss
#

Thats still pretty though.

rapid warren
#

absolutely yes. He does his work from a tablet and I do trucking - so it absolutely works out. This year he'll start with the license and I do let him train on my truck Wesh my pal's parking better than I do when I started kek

little moss
#

Is that like work from home if it’s in a tablet? How difficult is it to get your licence over there?

rapid warren
#

quite easy. just pay and do your thing - more or less šŸ˜„

#

and yes, its kind of work from home šŸ˜‚ well "home" is kinda stretchable lol

little moss
#

I was about to say šŸ˜‚ as long as you’ve got an internet connection it works well. Do you have to do any licence requirements first like medical and your theory before you get any practical training?

rapid warren
#

Well, you need Class "B" (Car) - then you have to visit a theoretical course usually in the driving school. Then learning until you pass the required 80% in the theory test. (Applies to C and CE). Once you finished the theory, you do the practical part. Then the practical test and then you can drive, just not commercially.

Then you need the C95 Module, which allows you to drive commercially. Is an own test and once that is done, you can request the normal license for your wallet size and ur good to go (as well you need the tacho card obv). Quite a hassle but it's good it's that strict.

lean oracle

do like a few tests on a pc take few hrs

then u go if say ok to that, go medical then start theory but plenty who instantly drive while doing theory

if hes smart, u got a crane on it, put the outriggers down so theres some weight of it, then raise the suspension after putting a block between axle n frame

raise truck suspension when he jammed a block in there n raise suspension some more after taking bag out so the axle probz drops on its own

then perhaps leveler on front some more and he should have plenty space, just take the front tire off

Its funny because the bag itself isn’t broken

By the way, yesterday my trailer got disconnected from the truck and fell

#

It's good that it happened at the base, and only the air hose (and the rotary mechanism for the hydraulic wires ((I've already broken it, so it's not scary)) was damaged) )

After we lifted it and looked after it, we checked it and everything turned out to be fine.

I want to share the events of this week.

  1. I got stuck in the same place 3 times (they pulled me out after 5 hours).
  2. I drove under a 3.7m railroad (I have a DAF 106 (not a Super Space)). It was a couple of mm short and it caught the upper spoiler (but the damage is barely noticeable, so it's not a big deal).
  3. I drove across the bridge at 13t (I'm 15.2t), and right after the bridge there was a patrol police station (they let me through without any problems (the signs led straight to the bridge, I don't know what idiots put them up)
  4. I saw some little piglets that ran away into the bushes.
  5. I drove on 2 new roads, I will never drive on them again in my life.
  6. The salt was poured into the trailer crookedly (more on one side), and when lifting it, the trailer tilted heavily to the side (the workers threw a ton to the other side and were able to unload it).
  7. I lost my electric razor in my car. I have no idea where it is and I've already ordered a new one. It'll be a shame to find it after I pick up the new one.
  8. I have welded mounts for the 100ah battery into the bomb bay, all that remains is to secure it

to just straighten it

#

gotta worry less about the right

even if u dont intend to overtake

Oh for sure, I didn’t ask for it like that, that’s just what you guys left it like on my trailer, I’m just not worried about it enough to fix it, and it’s not like it’ll change anything for me

formal minnow
#

how much are u sticking out

#

like 5 inches?

#

Nah like a foot, but my quick connect flags stick out more than the blade so I’m not worried

no extra mirrors

we only put extended mirrors on with like them big chalets

Flags, signs, beacons, and flag on the excess point

only need beacons if its past 40 cm total

I heard Europe faces driver shortages due to low pay, didn't think it was like this. American truck drivers would make around 60,000 EUR entry level and a solid year for Owner-Operators could be like 172,000 EUR

It's unfortunate because European trucking technology is levels ahead of stuff here in the US. We just have higher speeds and bigger cabs for comfort

I'm paid by the hour for example

i was paid hourly aswell

most eastern europeans get paid a set amount and then per km

atleast what several have told me

so theyd get like 50 bucks and then 20 cents a km or something

depends on their boss
