[thick cedar]

[tawny moth]

@vagrant cosmos invite me to the server with that emote

[twin sedge]

Yes that's be sick.

[tawny moth]

ETS need to add more customization for lower end truck makes that are not Volvo and Scania, like man and daf need more customization

@twin sedge where do u get that emote

[twin sedge]

Lemme dm you

[tawny moth]

[thick cedar]

daf literally has a tuning pack imy

[paper bear]

they all need more customisation, and daf and man are some of the better makes

[thick cedar]

Volvo should get one but idk when

[paper bear]

for customisation

[tawny moth]

ik @thick cedar I have it but still not the best

[thick cedar]

Merc tuning pack is bad

[paper bear]

none of them are good. when you look at the amount of stuff you can do irl.

[vagrant cosmos]

These kinda loads i enjoy the most :3

[patent bolt]

Wait where and what @tawny moth ?😱

[paper bear]

low loader work is the best

[twin sedge]

Noxi

[tawny moth]

@patent bolt I changed it dw

I was using the picture u posted in ur Scania in the snow as my profile pic

That one

Remember I asked u if I could?

I changed it now tho

[patent bolt]

Haha ah I see, yeah I remember and there's no worries if you'd like to use any of them 😝

[tawny moth]

Thank you

[paper bear]

Must be desperate

😄

[patent bolt]

We got more winter ish landscape now tho

[tawny moth]

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

** Applestan processes to invite imy to his emotes server**

** or not **

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

[patent bolt]

All alone at the ferry dock waiting for the last ferry 🤟

Maybe I should park my clogs for the season tho

[vagrant cosmos]

why?

i plow with them

[tawny moth]

why

[vagrant cosmos]

i run in 1.5m deep snow in them xD

[patent bolt]

Cuz it's slippery and you get your socks snowy and all walking in deep snow 🤣

[vagrant cosmos]

SVV don't really like me

[patent bolt]

Why not?

[vagrant cosmos]

they say i plow to fast sometimes, and that i don't care with all the required visibility cloths xD

i try to argue than an Guardian Angle do a better job then some stupid uncomfortable jacket.. :x

[patent bolt]

🤣

[tawny moth]

do you guys have the heater on 24/7 while you’re in your trucks?

[vagrant cosmos]

yes, on 20*C

[tawny moth]

and you say you like the cold

[thick cedar]

I have my stationary air thingy on all the time i'm not in my truck

As if you're gonna drive in a truck with like 2° imy???

[vagrant cosmos]

well, imy, i have my window open too

also imy, wasn't your name pink?

[thick cedar]

He's a patron now

[tawny moth]

ye, I’ve been a patreon for ages just never linked my discord

[thick cedar]

You can't be patreon for ages. I think they launched it 2 mths ago

[tawny moth]

Well 2 months

[vagrant cosmos]

also, also, this is an Guardian Angle Device for those who didn't know https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpUoDVkJ6oA

[thick cedar]

ooo you have these things?

Well i mean my vest is enough here lol

[vagrant cosmos]

i have had 2, one yellow blue and white and one yellow and yellow

police wasn't happy with the yellow blue and white one

[tawny moth]

I had no idea what it was

[vagrant cosmos]

i have a basic vest too, but it feels weird driving in it

[paper bear]

you shouldnt need to drive in it

thats idiotic policy if you need to drive with it

[thick cedar]

Who drives with his vest on

[vagrant cosmos]

we are required to drive in visibility class 3 while doing snow cleaning :x

[thick cedar]

Oh well

[paper bear]

class 3?

[vagrant cosmos]

yes

[thick cedar]

[paper bear]

what is class 3?

[vagrant cosmos]

pants and jacket

class 3 is how good it shows in the dark

i never follow it xD

Co-worker got a ticket because he had a cut in his pants xD

[thick cedar]

Lol. Police wouldn't give a damn here

I got away with driving 22 km/h too much

Needed to pay 20€

[paper bear]

thats lame, load of bs

i wouldnt even mind if i got punted off the job for that. Like thanks,

[tawny moth]

I don’t think I have ever worn my high vis, we only pull into petrol stations to fill up on fuel or water the horses and apart from that we only pull into stables so no need really

[paper bear]

now i dont need to look like a lollipop dude whilst driving

[vagrant cosmos]

it was summer, it was warm, so he cut his pants into a shorts (the visibility was still there tho :x )

Summer in northern norway is always weird, this is jul.30.2018 at 2.30 am 😂

[patent bolt]

It's not weird

It's amazing!

[vagrant cosmos]

this is in Tromsø x3

not to far from the tunnel opening

[candid solstice]

as a person who loves daylight, that looks like the dream

[vagrant cosmos]

i swear, while i was in Tromsø i must have broken about every one way road there was xD

[tawny moth]

[vagrant cosmos]

came down from the bridge, went right through a school area i apparently was not allowed to drive through, went through it at least 5 times xD

[tawny moth]

most places you guys go are built for trucks, like the places you pick up and drop off your loads, when transporting horses you have to go to farms in the middle of nowhere and the roads are so narrow there is like 1” on each side and every road you go down says “3.5 ton weight limit” but we have learnt that means nothing

[vagrant cosmos]

also, bus drivers in Tromsø are really scary @patent bolt! D:

[patent bolt]

Haha you don't say 🤣

[vagrant cosmos]

not true for me Imy, i drive tipper lorries, so most places i go there sometimes ain't even roads

just have to try and fail

i remember when i asked a farmer if it was safe to go onto his field, he told me yes, he had tested it, so i tried, 30 tons, ofc i go right through, so i asked him what he tried with, he then told me his quad bike

[patent bolt]

This was at midnight Apple

[vagrant cosmos]

❤

[tawny moth]

ahh yes thats true, a lot of places we go don’t have rods either

WHAT! Midnight?

[vagrant cosmos]

yeah

[thick cedar]

Preety normal in Norway

Summer time ?

[patent bolt]

Not in all of Norway

Above the Arctic circle

Yeah summer

[tawny moth]

ohhh ofcourse you guys have like 6 months light 6months dark right?

[vagrant cosmos]

This is 21.48

[patent bolt]

Yeah at the darkest parts of winter there's like 2 hours of daylight 🤣

1am in Northern Sweden

[tawny moth]

that’s actually cool af

[patent bolt]

Yeah summers are the best up north that's why I'm saving my vacations for the winter time 🤣

[vagrant cosmos]

no.. so much depression.. so little sleep when changing from winter to summer

in one month you can have 4-5 hour longer days then you did before

it changes so fast, most go insane xD

[tawny moth]

I’m lucky af. I can sleep anywhere, thought anything. My fire alarm ran out of battery when I was at home and I didn’t wake up, only heard it going off at like 9:30 when I woke up and it had been going off all night according to my neighbor

[patent bolt]

How the bloody F did this happen 🙄

[tawny moth]

LOOOOL

is it inside?

[vagrant cosmos]

is that water?

[tawny moth]

Inside cab light with a bug inside I believe

[patent bolt]

Yeah it's inside it

And when I picked up the truck those were long gone for the season

[tawny moth]

LOL HOW

[patent bolt]

So it must have been there since it was mounted 😬

[tawny moth]

🥶

[vagrant cosmos]

http://prntscr.com/pwknd4 just think that looked like water

[tawny moth]

Scania

[paper bear]

just all the insect juice

[vagrant cosmos]

ahh

[tawny moth]

Your screenshot won’t load for me

Ahh it loaded now, I see what you mean, does looks like water

[vagrant cosmos]

@patent bolt just likes wet things i guess

[candid solstice]

[patent bolt]

Dunno what it is

[thick cedar]

Chernobyl last year ;D

I'm the truck up front

[vagrant cosmos]

was it nice?

[thick cedar]

Yes very cool

But the people there are very poor

[vagrant cosmos]

it looks cool, old trucks and old environment and all that

[patent bolt]

Wait what you drove trucks to Chernobyl?

[vagrant cosmos]

Noxii, let's go there next summer 😄

[tawny moth]

Filling up

[patent bolt]

Haha aye and have a dare of who dares to touch the elephants foot the longest!

[vagrant cosmos]

[thick cedar]

@patent bolt Yes i participated in a convoy to drive there and deliver some stuff the ppl need there

Oops sry

[vagrant cosmos]

if i win you can have all my money 😄

[tawny moth]

Horses are all good

[patent bolt]

Oh that sounds very nice Beni

Like a trip of a lifetime

[thick cedar]

Yes preety much. Took us 1.5 mths

Dk why the quality is so bad

[patent bolt]

Oh christ that's long

[tawny moth]

Chernobyl sounds cool af

[paper bear]

sounds... rad

[tawny moth]

[patent bolt]

Did you have to like wash trucks leaving or pass any radiation scans or something?

[thick cedar]

Many

There's millions of signs warning you lol

[patent bolt]

Yeah can imagine that's a must

[thick cedar]

We were in the closed part too

We met 2 old people that still live there

[patent bolt]

Oh cool

Would've loved to drive there in my truck

[thick cedar]

No electricity, no running water nothing

And no mobile data

And my W-Lan didn't work in my truck cuz there's literally nothing lmao

[patent bolt]

That's sad how the gov at least can't provide them with cell towers

And weird

[thick cedar]

Apple

@patent bolt Well they actually offered them money to move out of the area. And gov doesn't want to spend money for 2 ppl

[patent bolt]

Well still with today's technology it shouldn't be that hard

[thick cedar]

Russia and technology? Yeah right lmao

[patent bolt]

[thick cedar]

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

what if I sexually identify as a Scania S730 @candid solstice

[thick cedar]

[tawny moth]

Assuming my gender

[vagrant cosmos]

we are truckers, keeping to one topic is one of the hardest things we do

[tawny moth]

^

[sterile spoke]

[thick cedar]

If truckers talk, they talk

Like yesterday

[tawny moth]

Near Cordoba but have to drive in like 20 mins

[thick cedar]

Same :(

Gonna start in about 30 mins

The minute i'm allowed to drive again

[vagrant cosmos]

i am gonna go to my big comfy bed, watch a movie and relax

[thick cedar]

Well...I mean i can drive for 11 mins now lmfao

But nahhh

[tawny moth]

yep my co driver has done 3h so will probably be tired soon, we usually drive till one is tired then switch instead of 4:30h each till we reach driving limit easier if we just do 2h a 3h each and if we’re not tired we can keep going

[thick cedar]

I will see if i wanna drive in 30 mins

[tawny moth]

[thick cedar]

I mean...You can easily change driver cards when you drive but when police pulls you over they see that and then ylu need to pay €€€€

Tbh i'm preety illegal up here 😂 😂

The first 1 hour i work i don't have my card in

[tawny moth]

99% of the time we stay legal but sometimes shit happens so you got to keep going

[thick cedar]

So i can finish my tour properly

[stable lynx]

I am all hooked up to a tow truck. I head to Milwaukee tonight

[thick cedar]

[tawny moth]

[thick cedar]

[tawny moth]

oh our 2018 man whines at you like a bitch but this old 2002 Merc dosent make a sound

[thick cedar]

Apparently i'm dumb lol

But police doesn't seem to care

[tawny moth]

[thick cedar]

As i was bwhind a police car and they rolled a bit further to look in my cab and i wasn't buckled. Didn't care

But if i don't forget i'm buckled

The driver died :(

If there was an higher railing of concrete he wouldntve

[stable lynx]

[formal minnow]

Like honestly its expected some point

A truck will go off

But they keep making the railings at these kinds of dangerous cliffsides etc what not just high enough to stop a car

[patent bolt]

I'm on Hammarøya @vagrant cosmos

[formal minnow]

isnt it better to ask the boss to upgrade his truck

[thick cedar]

They wom't

[formal minnow]

hm

what did u even change or add

[thick cedar]

For example

[formal minnow]

the sidestrips

[thick cedar]

New Mudflaps

Horns are coming soon

[formal minnow]

oooh

[thick cedar]

Bought 4 Train Horns

[formal minnow]

tell me

YES

nice

when i was at truckfest people when leaving where competing

trying to scare people on the side of the road

[thick cedar]

Ya. Gonna be the loudest now for sure

[formal minnow]

one of them had a loud one like it almost popped our eardrums

if i end up buying a volvo im putting on a roofrack and an trainhorn

[thick cedar]

Hard to install

Gold that we have an own mechanic shop

[formal minnow]

its not too hard

[thick cedar]

The compressor and everythi g

So it looks good

[formal minnow]

i just need to install an small airthank and compressor

[thick cedar]

I wanna hide them

So it looks normal

[formal minnow]

benefit on trucks is they have one already

yeah

under the chasiss

next to the sideskirts for example

if there is room

but u also dont want dirt to come into them

[thick cedar]

Yup

So somewhere gigher

[formal minnow]

so ud have to make them face towards the back

[thick cedar]

Higher

[formal minnow]

that way nothing can come in

[thick cedar]

Maybe somewhere on the back

[formal minnow]

yea

if id buy an old volvo

i got plenty of room to put one in the engine bay

and just run the tank / compressor depending how big it needs to be into the trunk

[thick cedar]

https://www.truckstyler-shop.de/Doppel-Hadley-Druckluft-Horn-eckig-66cm-73cm-Typ900-Typ901?curr=EUR&gclid=Cj0KCQiAk7TuBRDQARIsAMRrfUYgmhz4iVgQYigB3i-85amYLxkneO_d523CVESazYOucGyYj8Y_4BgaAg_uEALw_wcB

[formal minnow]

i dont think it really needs an big airtank does it

[thick cedar]

4 of them

Don't know

[formal minnow]

mate

u shouldve bought american trainhorn

those are louder

this is nothing

lol

[thick cedar]

Illegal

Sadly

Everything's illegal here

[formal minnow]

ofcourse

[thick cedar]

There's laws for everything

[formal minnow]

but dont cops turn blind eye towards truckers anyways

for like mods they done

[thick cedar]

No

Not jere

Here

But in Netherlands they di

[formal minnow]

ah right

tuv

[thick cedar]

That'a why the trucks are always looking nice

[formal minnow]

trash

[thick cedar]

Not really

Did this too

Maybe you saw already

Wasn't tol expensive luckily

[formal minnow]

its led strips

u can buy pretty good ones for 20 bucks a set usually so

[thick cedar]

But the horns we're very expensive lmao

And the curtain stuff

[formal minnow]

450 total?

like its an set of 2 i assume

[thick cedar]

For the horns 500 with Adapters

The curtains and stuff 500 too

The 2 sidebars 1000

I basically copied my dads interior

Looks like this then

I wanna get 2 Michelin figures too

And 2 💩 Plushies

[formal minnow]

xd

[paper bear]

2 side bars were 1000??

[thick cedar]

Yup

[paper bear]

what the hell

[thick cedar]

Chrome and they installed them for me

[formal minnow]

if your kinda good at fabricating

u could probably make them for 400 combined

[paper bear]

i got perimiter lighting for the rear of my cab, was 300

[formal minnow]

xD

show

?

[paper bear]

stainless strips with red leds.

theyre not on yet

[formal minnow]

ow

but im assuming

you pay for them

and your company shop just installs them

[paper bear]

next time im in the workshop theyll be going on. and yes, i bought them. they install

[formal minnow]

so labour is already 0 instead of a few hundred minimum

[thick cedar]

My shop is gonna install the horns

[paper bear]

beni said he has a shop

yeah

couldve got them to do the lights too

[thick cedar]

I don't. My company will

Ye. But it was like a package

And they came lmin 1 day

And i'm only able to go to the shop on saturday

[formal minnow]

how long would your downtime be tho

just plan it with cargo

if u got the 3hour break

[paper bear]

screw that, i got mine next day, and im only down at our workshop once every few weeks

[formal minnow]

rip

alltough

u could install them in your break sam

and just let the shop wire them up when u get there

[thick cedar]

As if the mechanics are working at 10:30 p.m.

Mate

[paper bear]

yeah, but the job i would make of it compared to them. there would be no point going around with lights that arent working

[thick cedar]

I can't just drive off from the company and install a lightbar or some shit

Not how it works

I'm maybe gonna get a lightbar too

And orange lights for the Volco Light

Like the V

[paper bear]

drls

[thick cedar]

Yup

[paper bear]

might get 2 double burners,

other than that nothing else planned

[formal minnow]

nice

[thick cedar]

This

And for the ones on top of the cab maybe too

[formal minnow]

ok

yes

thats beautifull

i see that alot around here

it looks really good in the dark

[thick cedar]

That's why i only drive nightshift

[formal minnow]

xd

[clear ore]

What is better for mountain driving manual or automatic

[thick cedar]

I mean if your automatic transmission works and doesn't go up a gear in the middle of a hill you'll be fine

You can go in manual mode

[paper bear]

Semi auto

[clear ore]

are truck automatics and car automatics different?

[formal minnow]

Yes

Unless a car would pull 40 tons then i geuss it wouldnt

[clear ore]

So it's still the parking reverse and drive and the other things

[formal minnow]

Yes

Well trucks dont have a park in the gearbox i think

They have a parking brake

[clear ore]

Oh

[formal minnow]

Due to the fact some shitty electronic brake wotn hold 40 tons still parked at an incline

[clear ore]

Interesting

And they are both good for going down mountain

[formal minnow]

What

No

[clear ore]

Oh my

[formal minnow]

U shouldnt go on a gearbox braking downhill

Have common sense and use your brakes

[clear ore]

No like manual and automatic

[formal minnow]

Hm

Well going down mountains aint problem if id be an truck drivwr here

The highest elevation level we have is in the corner of the country and thats like

10 meters

Laoal

[clear ore]

True but in the US I hear people gotta go around the whole state

[vagrant cosmos]

Paper, what i do is i put it in Manual and if there is no ice, i put on the engine break

if there is ice, never use your engine break as it can lock your break and lose your traction

[clear ore]

The manual break is the brake pedals

[vagrant cosmos]

yes

usually 2 system break, Hydraulic + air usually

[clear ore]

I see

[patent bolt]

Blocking roads like pros 🤣🤟

[radiant solstice]

rec ban

[stable lynx]

admeeeeen

[paper bear]

Capri, have common sense and don't burn up your brakes for goi g downhill

Use the retarder

[tawny moth]

💩 Emoji acquired! it’s a bit small so it will be the one for my Ford Ranger, I’ll get a bigger one for my truck

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

I’ve had it for ages just forgot

[vagrant cosmos]

[tawny moth]

You snow plowing today @vagrant cosmos

[vagrant cosmos]

my shift starts at 3, there will be ice, so all i might do is remove as much as possible and just put sand

[tawny moth]

is there a lot of snow atm

[vagrant cosmos]

nah, not really, maybe 5 cm on the roads and 50, 60 cm of the roads

1 cm ice on the roads, so need to start ripping soon i think

[tawny moth]

Do you put sand or salt in Norway?

[vagrant cosmos]

depends where you are, and what class road you are on

i only clean DkD and DkC

Noxii mostly only drive on DkC, DkB, DkA roads i think

Ripping ice is always fun, so stupid loud and can only go 28 kmh

i think you only drive DkB, DkA @tawny moth

[tawny moth]

Sound cool! are you always in that Volvo?

We drive all type of roads

[vagrant cosmos]

when plowing, yeah, it's the only plow truck i use

called the driver that is driving now, he told me that it was so slippery that he put on chains this morning.. this will be my first time driving with chains

[formal minnow]

Wait apple

Is that an extra scraper they put like just under the sideskirt

[vagrant cosmos]

yes

to rip the ice

[formal minnow]

Nice

Do u have a pic xd

Ive never seen that here

When they plow if needed

[vagrant cosmos]

it's basically like this but with rippers and under the truck, also is hydraulic https://digitaltmuseum.no/021025641186/veghovel/media?slide=0

[formal minnow]

Ah nice

[tawny moth]

Went to the north of Sweden once with the horses all the other trucks had chains on but we didn’t have any was so icy we were doing like 15kmh took 2 days to do our drop offs should have taken 8-10h

[formal minnow]

Lol

[tawny moth]

any of u guys home? want to play truckersmp with me?

[formal minnow]

[vagrant cosmos]

i would, but i am on-duty, if they call, i go

[formal minnow]

alt f4 when they call? Xd

[formal minnow]

[tawny moth]

anyone truckersmp promods?

[thick cedar]

Wanna drive?

[tawny moth]

yes

[thick cedar]

[tawny moth]

can u play?

[thick cedar]

Yes i can

[candid solstice]

#general or #ets2 please

[vagrant cosmos]

[stable lynx]

Lol

[formal minnow]

@candid solstice why cant we have an private trucking chat talk

atleast the people who dont know what theyre talking about etc wont bother us here

[stable lynx]

Ye

[paper bear]

But that means that you must know what youre talking about...

so itll never work

[vagrant cosmos]

why can't we have a Real-Life-Truckers-Talk-About-Anything?

[formal minnow]

yeaaa

[stable lynx]

[thick cedar]

im one of those with no clue about rl trucking :)

[stable lynx]

Stay away from the storm brewing

[candid solstice]

We won’t segment users based on their occupation. That’s silly

[thick cedar]

Thats segregation

[paper bear]

because then you would have a real life truckers chat, and who wants that.

[candid solstice]

Isn’t that what this channel is for? Real life truckers to share their irl experiences

[paper bear]

i dont even know anymore

[thick cedar]

when ppl cant read channel names

[vagrant cosmos]

i just want a place i can talk to fellow truckers about anything

[thick cedar]

yes

here

or if i understand correctly, what you want is a group dm

or just make a completely new server

so many options yet you do not consider them

[vagrant cosmos]

i am sorry for opening my mouth..

[serene mason]

Stan dm me fella
