[uncut vapor]

This is my last pic. Goodbye trucking !

[tepid yew]

oh wow another great one goes

[queen brook]

Thank god

[polar ruin]

Bit of shunting with this beast

[old holly]

Yes, I believe I do. Harrys and Sons haulage. But I'm still stuck with an older daf 96. I think he got one of the newer ones. But I can't say I have ever met him

[polar ruin]

Yea, he has got the 106 XF

[old holly]

thats it, lucky man

[polar ruin]

Well, I think the 105 and 106 daf are not that different at comfort or how it drives, only the throttle of the 105 is super delayed

Whoopsie

[old holly]

thats why I dont like it as much

[old holly]

what on earth did you do to end up like that?

[polar ruin]

I don't blame ya, especially whe you do a lot of precision reversing, impossible with that throttle

[polar ruin]

Sharp corner of a sidewalk

[old holly]

god yeah, feels so jittery

[old holly]

ohh rest in peace wheel

[polar ruin]

Nah, not gonna replace it for that

[polar ruin]

You had same problem as me I see haha

Still good for M.O.T tho

[old holly]

tbf I wouldn't either. You just wanna be careful cause god knows what spikey debris may slip in there

[stiff wolf]

anyone here that is in the UK and has his own lorry ? can you please PM

[wooden rock]

just looks good just put new air in and you can drive again

[rugged cape]

What you gonna do now

[patent bolt]

Soon weekend time 🙏🏻

[uncut vapor]

@rugged cape idk but trucking is finish for me

[polar ruin]

Well, that bit that has gone out of the sidewall, is like not even half of the thickness of the sidewall

So no danger

[tepid yew]

and why you just leavin like that

[uncut vapor]

Retirement

[old holly]

ah alright,

[queen brook]

Something isnt quite right

[glossy horizon]

That's a nice truck.

[bright salmon]

You should send pictures of random trucks in #photos instead. Please also read the pinned messages in this channel

[scarlet current]

i know

but i forgot when i posted it

[dry sandal]

why your driver plate is in weird position?

[summer valve]

Personal preference

[old holly]

merc?

first time I seen one of those here

rather jealous ngl

[dry sandal]

up to you, it's your truck, anyway nice merc

[summer valve]

This is the reason why I like it slanted.

[thick cedar]

Does look better slanted honestly

[dry sandal]

relatable

[gusty flame]

denmarkgang

[scarlet current]

[polar ruin]

understandable, dont have that problem with my old little scania lol

[summer valve]

Wouldn't really call that a problem. I've always had my drivers plate slanted.

[rigid talon]

[polar ruin]

XD, indeed Scania not Volvo or MAN quality

[dry sandal]

[rugged cape]

It's cool

[dry sandal]

what's your trailer type called?

usually see the sidecurtain type but never saw this before

[rugged cape]

It's a Legras, full side opening.

[dry sandal]

oh it's like automatic gate.....looks interesting

[rugged cape]

We load a lot of bulk so we can't use curtainsliders

[trail vault]

where u go exactly?

[tawny moth]

Near Salzburg

[turbid sedge]

@rugged cape Please refrain from sending pictures and/or videos that suggest dangerous driving by taking them while driving on a public road. Thank you.

[rugged cape]

Gopro

😠

[turbid sedge]

Would you mind sending me the video in DMs by any chance?

[rugged cape]

You deleted it man

[turbid sedge]

@oblique herald Please refrain from sending random videos not related to "real life trucking", and you're still driving dangerously on a public road while recording it, thus meaning it's breaking the rules.

[oblique herald]

Love you too hunnybun

[rugged cape]

Wanna come party a little at my place? You look a little tense man

[median orchid]

One has to admire the enginuity when it comes to Americans making tricks.

Trucks

[queen brook]

Umm no.

[pastel vessel]

Reminds me of GoodYear

[slim valve]

😄

[summer valve]

Nice google pic.

[slim valve]

But I'll do my internship there next week 🙂

or in 2 week lol

[summer valve]

Still a random google pic

[slim valve]

Does it matter whether it is a google picture or not?

[summer valve]

Do you drive/have driven either of those two trucks?

[slim valve]

🙂

no..

[summer valve]

Then it seems like it's a random truck pic.

[barren nova]

hey i have one question if someone have anny experience with opening your own trucking company can you replay to this message

[rugged cape]

My advice is don't

And you'll get that advice from anyone

But people are willing to help you anyway if you still go through it

[barren nova]

i know this is risky but i like to do it cuz i am going to study logistic and it will myby work out i am going in to it i just like to get some advices if is someone there who can hellp me i am european

[stable lynx]

Best piece of advice you will ever get owning a truck, "You must have a large fortune in order to make a small fortune."

1 truck in the US costs about $150,000-$200,000. The average weekly income of a truck owner is $6,000-$10,000. Meaning it could take 10 years to pay off a truck.

[barren nova]

yes mate i know i am from europe and i am not going to be a driver i am logitstic tehnic i mean i am studiying for it i am gona invest in company

like i am just gona buy trucks and pays drivers

i need advices how to find drivers, posible clients and company related things

[stable lynx]

I can't help ya there

[barren nova]

thanks annyways bro tnx for taking time

[stable lynx]

No problem

[median orchid]

And your rebutle would be based on what? Yankees know how to build quality, powerful and reliable trucks.

Change my mind

European trucks just look aesthetically pleasing. If we get down to the nitty-gritty details, Americans outdo them by a mile.

[median orchid]

Speaking as an individual who owns one. It can be cancerous and beneficiary at the same time.

[rugged cape]

I don't own a truck myself but I did study Transport and Logistics for one year before I started on my license, and I asked a lot of people because I want to be my own king one day too.

A lot of people think the only investment you need to start is to buy the truck and some paperwork, but reality is that you'll have to pay for loan, diesel, adblue, tyres, parts and maintenance for at least 2-3 months before earning any money because you won't get paid by your customers day by day. One advice I got is that when you have enough money to buy two trucks, you are able to afford buying and running one truck without putting yourself in too much debt. For example a €80k truck, you should also have €80k in the bank.

[median orchid]

It's expensive, tiresome, but it's a joy watching your truck belowing down the road with it's straight pipes having engaged the brake jake

All that stress is worth it

[stable lynx]

We used to know how to do that. We don't anymore, just look at the International LT. Most common truck on the road because it's cheap and it feels cheap, it drives cheap, and falls apart easily.

[rugged cape]

The thing is, here in Norway the "DOT" is so strict with noise and light pollution that any styling and joy you'd find would likely be illegal. I think starting up in Norway is one of the hardest places, since you have everything working against you when it comes to DOT, Diesel Prices, Taxes, Tolls, Weather, Roads, Hills, competing against companies from different countries where drivers get 1/10th of the salary you get.

[barren nova]

i know this is why i asked in this forum cuz there are alot of real life truckers who i can ask

[median orchid]

You're picking the worst American truck brand.dont leave out Kenworth, Peterbilt, Freightliner (I happen to own one) and so forth

[barren nova]

yo men can i add you yo seem like a nice person can you mby hellp me with questions?

[median orchid]

The only disadvantage of owning an American truck is that parts are expensive

[rugged cape]

If you want, I can try

[median orchid]

And I have to import them from the USA

Since I live in South Africa

[rugged cape]

You're Canadian?

Even harder

[median orchid]

There are Freightliner dealerships

[stable lynx]

I know I singled out 1 brand, it's because it's where the trucking industry is headed right now

[median orchid]

But they have to import them most of the time

[barren nova]

you from europe?

[rugged cape]

Do they get transported by boat from the US? Do the boats take good care of them, or do you often get issues with corrosion of the salty environment?

[rugged cape]

Yes, Norwegian

[barren nova]

nice i added you

[median orchid]

Yes and no. Most of the time they use DHL and fly them over

You have a choice. Either they fly them over for a pretty penny or they ship them but it'll take longer

[stable lynx]

Every Kenworth I ever owned felt like I was jumping 50 feet in the air if I even looked at reverse. I never drove a pete, my first international blew it's engine 42 miles after I got it. Freightliner has Def issues across the board and Volvo is impossible to get anybody to service them

[median orchid]

What issues with a freightliner?

I own an Argosy

Cummins 500

[rugged cape]

Thanks, I was just asking because a friend got a motorcycle shipped overseas and it was rusty in a few years.

[median orchid]

Always use DHL and fly things over. But just know it's expensive

[stable lynx]

New freightliners have a Deisel Exhaust Fluid system or AdBlue in europe, the sensors in this system like to throw fault codes and derate the truck to 5 mph

[median orchid]

It's the sea salt

Ye you're right Phoenix. I've got a buddy of mine who owns the 2018 version of the Freightliner

Same exact issues your mentioning

My model is a bit older (2008)

[stable lynx]

It's a very common issue.

[median orchid]

But she runs well

[stable lynx]

Older trucks generally run better then their modern counterparts. having said that, modern trucks are generally lower maintenance, more comfortable, and run more fuel efficient then older trucks

[median orchid]

Well most modern trucks have all electronic stuff and are mostly automated. Which has its benefits. But I believe in older trucks because should problems arise, you get your toolbox and get those hands greasy.

Hence I tend to lean more towards late 90s American trucks. And some European trucks like the Iveco Stralis, or DAF

[rugged cape]

If you know how to mechanic, older truck could he more affordable

[median orchid]

Volvos Scannias etc are overly complex for me honestly.

[median orchid]

That's how I learnt some basics of fixing trucks. From my mechanic, an older gentleman but very experienced

He used to work at the serving section at Freightliner

[rugged cape]

Sometimes the work is out of your hand, but putting a older truck in a shop for every small thing could drain your pocket

You probably change brakes, tires, oils etc yourself

[median orchid]

I do the basics myself

Along with him

Complex stuff i send it over to the shop

[rugged cape]

We have a 2000 Volvo FH in our company and it still runs like a charm

But it runs expensive

@median orchid what's the profit margin in SA? In Norway you can expect around 2% profit

[trail vault]

cool I'm near Wien

[queen brook]

Ok but how is using outdated technology outdoing us?

Considering they lack the safety features European trucks do. Their engines are outdated, gearboxes are outdated

Expect newer volvos

And some paccar products

Still disk brakes arent the norm. They mostly use drums

Air suspension lacks features

Acc only exists in few trucks

12v electrical systems

I can go on and on

[stable lynx]

Modern Freightliner trucks are just an American version of the previous generation Mercedes.

ACC in America won't be useful in any application until more vehicles use it. And the sheer stubbornness of most people means it's a stupid slow adoption time.

Until I got in this International I am in now, ACC was broken or not on the truck.

[turbid sedge]

@slim valve Hello there! Please do not post any pictures of trucks here unless you're the one driving them. pictures should be used instead. Thank you.

[rugged cape]

You can use ACC without any other vehicles using it and it'll work it's wonder

[median orchid]

You're looking at around 5-7%. But having long term contracts is an added bonus. Licensing at the DMV is very expensive

[median orchid]

I didn't dispute that. However I'm referred to engine performance, torque and horse power. Especially when you're hauling earthworks machinery, these American trucks tend to move the load easier than euro trucks.

[summer valve]

American trucks max out at around 600hp from the factory. Meanwhile European trucks are closing on the 800hp mark

[slim valve]

Im sorry

[polar ruin]

Yes and no, depends on the truck. Dafs are very lazy trucks, while man or Volvo feel way more powerfull. Also are many trucks here are automatics and stuck in eco or normal mode, then they don't pull hard, but if you have manual or power mode on the truck they pull like beast.

[polar ruin]

Also depends the torq and power rating on everything, engine, transmission, driveline, ratio of the back axles, ratio's of the transmission gears, torq converter, planetary's (if it's has it) and so on.

[tawny moth]

DAFs are very lazy trucks?…

they’re just not made for heavy haulage wouldn’t say they are lazy trucks

[polar ruin]

XD, the dafs I have driven dont pull a knife out of the butter,scania 440 outpulls daf 480...

[tawny moth]

I passed my test in a DAF but that’s the only daf ive ever driven so I wouldn’t know tbh

[polar ruin]

Haha nice

[uncut vapor]

DAF is so comfortable

[polar ruin]

True, rides like a cloud

[turbid sedge]

Let's mind our language, shall we?

[queen brook]

It dont

Have you ever driven a DAF

[summer valve]

Probably doesn't even have a license.

[queen brook]

Most likely not

[summer valve]

Lmao, he deleted the messages.

[devout kayak]

For US peeps how do you guys feel about western star?

[queen brook]

[tepid yew]

[shut silo]

👍

[uncut vapor]

New job

[polar ruin]

Nice man

[dry sandal]

nony drives a merc

[uncut vapor]

The trailer is 25 years old

[tepid yew]

good choice 😉

[polar ruin]

If it gets good maintenance, that's no problem

[cobalt onyx]

Hey, if it works

[uncut vapor]

No problem

[paper bear]

Dafs are one of the leading manufacturers of heavy haulage trucks.

We have a daf 6x4 plated for 150t

They even offer 8x4 configurations aswell

[uncut vapor]

Back at home

[polar ruin]

I my self will never buy a heavy haulage daf truck, our Volvo fh500 outpulls our DAF XF 530 in a long while haha

[tawny moth]

Oh really I didn’t know that, never seen a heavy haulage DAF. Thanks for letting me know

[queen brook]

And whats the age diffrence?

Gear ratios?

Etc

[polar ruin]

2,5 months

[polar ruin]

Both rear axles around 2,90, both 16 speed power mode, both 8*2 crane trucks, both same load for total weight of 37 tons, same hill, Volvo overtakes daf pretty fast

[paper bear]

But the daf is cheaper

So what if it's a few seconds behind on hills, it's more economical for companies so it's a good truck

[polar ruin]

Yes it is, they drive like a cloud. but I think not the best for heavy haulage

[paper bear]

Any truck with air suspension on the front axle with an air ride seat will feel like a cloud, personally I think the new gen scanias are a comfier truck than the new dafs.

Our manual one, when in 4tg the gear stick is touching your left leg,

Can't have the arm rest down as it collides with the gear stick.

Bottle holder is closed off when the arm rest is down too

Massive blind spots caused by the huge dash

But a comfy big bed and a nice asthetic

Easy to use and understand dash and infotainment system. Nice trucks overall but there is better. Anyway I'm out for now, see yous

[high zinc]

Looks so nice

[patent bolt]

Never seen a single one of them.

They're too weak

Volvo, Merc and Scania is where it's at

[paper bear]

It's not about the power out put, seen plenty and they make a strong chassis!

One I see often, they make great haevy haul trucks. Not "weak"

Remember, back in the day heavy haul trucks weren't all this 700hp plus stuff, they were in the 500 mark,

[wooden bronze]

Driveline gearing makes all the difference. HP numbers don't mean nearly as much as torque does.

[paper bear]

Yeah, 500 is plenty, traction becomes an issue before power does when they're geared like this,

And 700hp won't give you better traction!

[patent bolt]

Actually that might be true for you there then but not really here, as I said I've never seen a heavy hauler with as low hp as a DAF has here and as far as I am aware the Volvo I Shift is pretty neat for heavy hauls

[thick cedar]

This looks incredible 😮

[polar ruin]

YES

49,3 tonne combi👌

[paper bear]

How is that an issue here but not in Sweden where you are? Do the laws of physics work differently there?

[patent bolt]

Don't ask me I don't drive that just stating the facts that none here use them as they're weak.

[paper bear]

Riiight... Well there are dafs here that'll out pull your motor I'll tell you that 🤔

[patent bolt]

I'd say that that depends a lot on what you're hauling and where

[paper bear]

How?

[patent bolt]

Lets pretend you're going up a slight hill with a DAF 530 vs Volvo 750 both built for heavy haul you can't seriously believe the DAF has any chance in pulling the Volvo there?

[paper bear]

No, it won't out pull the Volvo

The volvo will fly up hills quicker

But if we're talking the steepest of the steepest

Low gear

Power is then out of the window,

It doesn't matter

[patent bolt]

Yeah but you said it yourself Volvo is quicker and you know yourself that time is money

So no I have never seen any such heavy hauler here as most here are the top of the line from Scania, Volvo or Merc

[paper bear]

You can't call a truck weak, because it has less than 600horse

And drive lines

[patent bolt]

It is quite tho

[paper bear]

Both trucks would be able to climb the same grade of hill, because both trucks would either break something or lose traction before power came an issue

[patent bolt]

I think DAF would sell a lot more if they did offer some stronger engine similar to the 650

[paper bear]

There's a couple 600+ dafs around here that I've seen, mapped ofc. But yes, I agree. They would really benefit in sales

[patent bolt]

Like for fuel efficiency seeing where we drive our 650 Scanias have a nice economy to them meaning we want to keep those trucks in that engine range which in this case means DAF is out of the question

[paper bear]

But for your runs, a 540 scania

A daf could do that happily too

[patent bolt]

Yeah that is true

I was referring to my old 650 and that route

But yeah I'm open to trying different brands

[paper bear]

They aren't a shower of Shi.. they are decent trucks, just not as high on the power tree

But for heavy haul, they used to be tipiog the tree, or near it. And they're still on the tree now, because they make a strong truck

[patent bolt]

Boss won't have it tho as we have a company driving under us who have struggled a lot with their DAF meaning our boss have seen a negative side of them also their service network here is potato which is something we rely on a lot

[paper bear]

Ah, fair does.

Kings, alleys, west of Scotland, collet. All these big heavy haul companies have had dafs and still have the newer dafs.

If companies like that still get them, it really says a lot. They make good trucks, and value for money they are one of the best.

[polar ruin]

They are not that weak, just really lazy haha

[turbid sedge]

@uncut vapor Please refrain from sending videos that suggest dangerous driving by using your phone while driving on a public road. Thank you.

[barren nova]

I would rather have -20 then +30

[rugged cape]

And almost sliding in the ditch like I just did?

I like a good winter better then a hot summer, with all problems included

[dark scroll]

[thick cedar]

This is beautiful

[wary garden]

Soon winter, woke up in the truck to -2 now some Adr driving on the return trip

[rugged cape]

Late winter

I got spotted

[stable lynx]

Got to spend the night at the world's largest truck stop. Iowa 80

[cobalt onyx]

Please read the pinned message in this channel.

[stable lynx]

I did, that is part of the experience of my life as a truck driver

Both of those pictures are taken from inside the store. If I can't post pictures of decoration to show my life as a truck driver, then please change the pin

[tawny moth]

[rugged cape]

Spending your night at the worlds largest truck stop is apparently not a truck experience anymore.

I've been driving with studless winter tyres for the first time on a truck for four days now and I'm very impressed

[thick cedar]

This is incredible! I love those old school pickups so much

For trucking in real. Are the police normally nice to you?

Ive seen clips of police being really awful to truck drivers blaming them for anything going wrong that day on the road. Just wondered if its common for the blame to fall on truckers since they are biggest vehicle on the road or if police are normally really helpful

[stable lynx]

I have never had an issue with the police

[rugged cape]

Let's celebrate start of winter with getting stuck in a jackknife ❄️ ❄️

[rugged cape]

No

Nice TGA

[outer jacinth]

360hp / 59 tonnes total

[thick cedar]

The truck looks nowhere near powerful enough for this load XD

[outer jacinth]

luckily the Netherlands doesnt have hills and I dont drive long distances with it, max 3 hours a day

[thick cedar]

Oh not bad then

Any reason you only do short drive?

[outer jacinth]

I operate the wheel loader mainly and when we are done I load up and head to the next place

And my colleague brings a wood shredder with him

[polar ruin]

Is that combi concidered as a lzv thus may it weigh 60 tons here?

Or is it just overweight😂

[outer jacinth]

[polar ruin]

Nice then

[summer valve]

Yeah. Freezer box

[polar ruin]

oh nice, one of the lower ones?

[summer valve]

Wdym lower ones?

[polar ruin]

like this

[summer valve]

No. It's 4 meters tall

[polar ruin]

ahh ok, cuz in scandinavia i feel there are way more of those, 3.3? meter high rigids then here.

[summer valve]

Idk about scandinavia but in Finland they're not common

[polar ruin]

ah ok, didnt know👍 🙂

[rugged cape]

🇸🇪->🇳🇴

[patent bolt]

They're not that common

There's a lot more 4.5m ones in Scandinavia or well Sweden and Finland compared to other places

[polar ruin]

Ahh ok, really thought they were more common there🙈

[patent bolt]

The reason for having such low trucks is often due to that they're operating in cities where as you might then come across a lot of tunnels that are rather low

Especially in bigger cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg etc, in those places they're quite common to get the cargo from the hubs out to the customers

[polar ruin]

Ahh, makes a lot of sense, here we dont have that kind of trucks, in the big cities here trucks are prehebited, trucks get loaded over to small electric vans at the city line🤦

[patent bolt]

Oooof RIP

Some city trucks here can even change the hight of their box

[polar ruin]

O wow, that's fancy

[rugged cape]

I never saw that wtf

[patent bolt]

Nub

They look like this

They can raise it a bit if necessary due to cargo height

[polar ruin]

Ahh, that's very handy to have, we have 2 trailers that can raise their roof 60 cm, but they drive for linde, we are the only transporter for linde in netherlands

Linde forklifts

[polar ruin]

2 of these 3 meter wide trailers we have can also lift roof, 60 cm. (recently got new tractor units)

[civic siren]

Can anyone explain why Americans having 45 foot trailer when they got 48 foot trailer? It seems very close compare to others in game (28,32,53)

I guess it has something to do with the law on trailer?

[outer current]

[rugged cape]

Thanks m8

[outer current]

I always see the pictures from you guys in Northern Europe and I really want to go there lol

[rugged cape]

You are welcome to visit or come work

[outer current]

would be nice to go there by truck I think

tbh I wouldn't want to live and work there, just visit some time xd

or do you think they would hire some 19 year old from germany to drive there 😂

[rugged cape]

We have two young Germans, yes I think so.

[outer current]

ah lol

[rugged cape]

Even if you want to for half a year or a year

German guy only drove here first for the summer. Then decided to come work full time

[outer current]

I want to quit trucking in Summer and do something different anyway, it would probably be a cool experience to drive a truck in Norway for that half year but tbh it would be too much of a change to move from a big city in Germany to the middle of nowhere in Norway barely knowing anyone and without knowing the language lol

[rugged cape]

No

[tawny moth]

[eternal rose]

Horses are waiting for you😂

[tawny moth]

[wraith knoll]

Where did you put the buttons on the steering wheel?

[eternal rose]

There are no buttons

Vabis steering wheel does not have buttons

But I'll have to order a horn maybe "Hadley868"

Or turkish whistle.

[wraith knoll]

No, from the original wheel, the original wheel had buttons, this one has not... Where did you put the buttons from the original steering wheel?

[eternal rose]

A orginal steering wheel?

Ok wait

[tawny moth]

He’s asking like where did you remap the steering wheel buttons from the standard scania steering wheel, like Cruise control I believe is on the wheel in those scanias

[wraith knoll]

Yea, it is, and all the controls for the Infortainment system

[patent bolt]

All ready for the weekend 😎✌🏼

[eternal rose]

It looks beautiful😎

[eternal rose]

[rugged cape]

[cobalt onyx]

Funny thing is, its not even his truck nor is he driving it

[eternal rose]

Woow fog lights also looking good😎

[rugged cape]

Edit mine

[scarlet current]

okey

[scarlet current]

wich one tho

[scarlet current]

its my dad that drives it but i do get to drive it here and there sooo

i drove it friday

[rugged cape]

All

[scarlet current]

emm ok

[placid shard]

When dirty boys work, hate using this as a replacement 😡 I only ask for a clean cab not asking much am I?

[spare python]

y’all got it nice not having it were it bends the chasis

[scarlet current]

what do you mean im a bit confused

[spare python]

for the end dumps

[eternal rose]

😎

[scarlet current]

ahh i see

[spare python]

by far easiest trucking job lol

[scarlet current]

tippers indeed

[eternal rose]

Yes

[spare python]

i’m lucky. i work for a concrete company so we pick up at 2 different places for rock depending which plant we go to deliver and 1 place for sand than we go deliver at our plants

pic off google don’t have a pic of my truck dumping, but that’s what i mean by the frame

[scarlet current]

ok now i get what u mean

[outer current]

That looks like a lot of stress on a single axle when tipping. Why do they do that

[dry sandal]

and the second question is, isn't the hydraulic gonna break?

[outer current]

I don't see why, the hydraulics seem to work exactly the same

I just feel like having all 4 or 6 wheels on the ground with a tippable body would be more stable than balancing the whole weight on the rear axle only but idk I'm not a tipper driver

[tepid yew]

third question- aint that gonna tip over like everywhere on non-flat surface?

[eternal rose]

This is possible when the tipper is not properly positioned and may tip over under heavy loads

[tepid yew]

tipper not having heavy loads?

everything except air is gonna be heavy there

[eternal rose]

I mean tons

[tepid yew]

i know

but still you cant load a heavy load into that because of the first two questions

so i think that is just for something light in a flat area

[eternal rose]

Yes you're right

[tepid yew]

it just looks like that anything more than 10 tons could be a problem

[eternal rose]

Yes even and more

[scarlet current]

in denmark if u have a 3 axl truck and 3 axl trailer u can have 30 to 35 tons

and if u have 3 on truck and 4 on tailer its like 40 tons

soooo

and tipper they haul 40 tons and a small bit more in denmark

a 2 axl truck and 2 axel trailer its up to 42 44 tons

[eternal rose]

In Poland I I can have on tipper 40 tons max

[scarlet current]

i see

[eternal rose]

either the police will give me a ticket or confiscate my car

[spare python]

we only dump on flat surface

[patent bolt]

Oy vey snow is back

[dry sandal]

you turn off aircond? or the scania has a modified heater?

[patent bolt]

No it’s not off, what makes you think so?

[eternal rose]

This is amazing snow✌️

[patent bolt]

Tell that to my bum

[eternal rose]

A is cold

[patent bolt]

I walked on snow today and didn’t see an icy patch under the snow so I slipped and fell straight on my bum and now it hurts like crazy and I got a cut in my hand 🙄

So doing my deliveries today have hurt quite a bit

[eternal rose]

Ajaj it must hurt

[eternal rose]

You will do it don't give up😇

Ice is my enemy, I don't want to say what he did to me before

[patent bolt]

Ofc all done already so it’s bedtime 😎✌🏼

Yeah ice is never fun

[eternal rose]

Is very dangerous

I had a sledding accident before when I was young it especially caused me a lot of pain

[dry sandal]

well, I live in tropical country so I never ever touches a snow so we dunno what it feels like to live in a snow country

[eternal rose]

Imagine, Me falling off the sled and hitting my head against the ice

[dry sandal]

[eternal rose]

That's good for you I guess

Therefore I would prefer to avoid ice

[rugged cape]

I did that when I was delivering in Tennevoll in the morning. Went to sleep with grass and asphalt and woke up to a plow truck passing me

[cobalt onyx]

Go slep nubxii

[patent bolt]

I am about to

Just gotta watch this episode of The Rookie first 😎

[patent bolt]

[placid shard]

Just a heads up if you're in the UK heading Hilton Park Services M6 Northbound lane closure, quite a nasty one.

[tawny moth]

[patent bolt]

All clean and time to go to bed and watch the latest Chicago Fire episode 😎👌🏼

[patent bolt]

Fully loaded and off we go ✌🏼

[queen brook]

Not even full yet

Still can fit boxes on the back

[patent bolt]

There aren’t anymore boxes to fit tho so yes it’s full

[queen brook]

No it isnt

You have just loaded everything you have

Dont mean its full

[patent bolt]

I’ve got my 4 stores on there and 49m3

[patent bolt]

Also since it’s tempered goods it’s full @queen brook cuz air circulation is necessary

[turbid sedge]

@tawny moth Let's not joke about such things please. Thank you.

[patent bolt]

[tawny moth]

I did remove it as I thought I would get a mod say something like that

[turbid sedge]

Shouldn't have posted it in the first place

[tawny moth]

but don’t overreact the comment wasn’t that bad

[turbid sedge]

It was completely unnecessary and can be seen as offensive

[tawny moth]

[queen brook]

I know because i do the same line lf work

[patent bolt]

I doubt that

[queen brook]

Trust me, we had a whole course on the subject

[patent bolt]

And you paid attention you mean?

[queen brook]

Had to

[patent bolt]

Oh you tried something new I see then

[queen brook]

Wdym?

[patent bolt]

Paying attention

[cobalt onyx]

Nubxii, you got work to do, remember?

[queen brook]

Ah yea i did

Because they taught me how to use airocide

Airflow came as a side note

Though there isnt much to learn about airocide

Just keep it on

And stonks aquired

[patent bolt]

I am working nub @cobalt onyx

[cobalt onyx]

Cleeeearly

[queen brook]

Full moon, cold night coming

[patent bolt]

Tunnel is closed until 23 tho so I’m not gonna make it all the way north today gonna have to sleep at the ferry dock which in turn probably will affect my work day tomorrow too

[cobalt onyx]

Working hard, or hardly working?

[queen brook]

Working tomorrow? Nah

[patent bolt]

Well I’ve been working since 9am this morning so I’ll let you decide

[queen brook]

This aint it chief

[patent bolt]

Yeah I’m supposed to drive from Narvik to Fauske swap trailer and then towards Bodø and then unload some and then back up to Narvik and head home for a short 1 day off

[queen brook]

Ive got a few days off

I was exposed to covid yesterday

Lessgoo

Gotta wait for a test result

[patent bolt]

Ooooof RIP

[queen brook]

2 days ago, not yesterday actually

Workmate has it and we were working together loading a trailer

Or well, 6 of us

So now 6 are exposed to covid

[patent bolt]

Wait it takes 6 Finns to do something it takes 1 of us to do?

[queen brook]

We had 10 minutes to load a full flower trailer

So yes, it took 6

[patent bolt]

Oooof

[queen brook]

And solo loading a full flower trailer takes like 30min

Sometimes 40

Depends on what kind of flowers

And are the trolleys any good

[hexed trellis]

that is very rude. Sorry to film other people. If you are in such a situation, you don't want to either.

[tawny moth]

bet your fun at parties

[summer valve]

Nothing illegal in that. Also, you cannot be in public without something recording you. Cars have dashcams, stores have constant surveilance with cameras.

[patent bolt]

Actually not fully correct tho, if I recall right it is in fact illegal to film or photograph accidents in some countries and you can get fined for doing so

[scarlet current]

in denmark i think

idk

[summer valve]

Depends on the situation as well.

Atleast here when going past a accident, if you have a dashcam that only saves the record if you press a button or if you happen to be in a crash, you can't save the video. If you have a dashcam that records and saves everything when on, you can't upload the video anywhere

[patent bolt]

Yeah but recording/photographing an accident scene with a cellphone is different. I mean sure if it’s a fender bender I don’t see an issue with it but I’ve seen people take pictures of horrible accidents where lives are lost and that disgusts me

Lost a coworker 2 years ago in a horrible head on collision between 2 trucks and pictures from that scene quickly showed up everywhere and it was the last thing I wanted to see, there was basically nothing left of the trucks

[wary garden]

Cleaned and ready for the comming week

[dry sandal]

[patent bolt]

Time to call it a night at the ferry dock for the second day in a row now 😬

[patent bolt]

Finally time to floor it on home for a short weekend

[outer current]

Yes, up to 1000€ fine in Germany. Also making photos of helpless people can be up to two years in prison. Filming an accident and not helping is denial of assistance and can be up to one year in prison as well

[rugged cape]

Cool oldee trucks from back in the day, kinda sad we changed the logo

[patent bolt]

Dude don’t post pictures from Google here…

The ibc had a cracked top and when he drove it into the truck i was in there resulting in that i now have been exposed to 85% formic acid by inhaling

If you call that driving you need glasses.

[slow bone]

Look at the speedometer. =))

[rugged cape]

He's still driving on a public road

[slow bone]

._.

How is he driving with 0 km/h?

In the picture, he is standing.

[patent bolt]

Driving equals operating and you’re not operating something when it’s stationary.

Deedee the rocket scientist

Also pretty sure there’s a rule against backseat moderating @rugged cape

So

[slow bone]

Those who found the driver's license in a bag of chips should immediately hand it in at the nearest police station. 😂 😂

[patent bolt]

[rugged cape]

What if he's drunk in the middle of the road. It's okay if he's going 0km

[slow bone]

I hope you're kidding.

[patent bolt]

Deedee da troll

[rugged cape]

I got more kms than noxy 🤬

[patent bolt]

Relax Winter, Deedee is just bored cuz he broke his Volvo again and have to wait while they fix it

[slow bone]

Yes and I am Michael Jackson. 😂

[cobalt onyx]

[slow bone]

😂

[rugged cape]

I bought you beef jerky be nice

[rugged cape]

The definition of driving is "the control and operation of a motor vehicle." And @patent bolt parking brake is not engaged so he's technically operating the vehicle since his gear is also engaged.

[patent bolt]

Nope

And you don’t even know how the picture was taken dude

[rugged cape]

I can't find this rule

Ban him, high beams on therefore if someone comes round the corner they are blinded and due to this could crash, resulting in him dangerously driving as he is potentially blinding oncoming traffic! #dangerousdriver @rugged cape smh

[glossy horizon]

Also this isn't a place to talk about that.

Isn't that mp3

[urban crane]

Nope this is a mp2 4160 v8

[rugged cape]

Yep, looks awfully similar to mp3 at quick glance

[urban crane]

It changes only the front grill

[glossy horizon]

What you can tell from a MP1 and a MP2 apart is the interior and exterior.

From a MP3 mostly just the exterior.

[urban crane]

👍

[rugged cape]

MP3 < MP4 honestly

[outer current]

nah

tbh I prefer MP3 over MP4

I never understood why people said MP3 is better than MP4 before I started driving myself but it really is

[wooden bronze]

What's wrong with MP4?

[outer current]

Gearbox is shit

Suspension is shit

Not sure if it's the configuration my company ordered but the ones I drove I absolutely hated them

I only ever drove MP4 for a few days to be honest but the seat rocks back and forth on every little bump in the ground and it drives you so crazy

mp3 just feels more comfortable to me

[glossy horizon]

Not gonna lie the MP4 is not bad in ets2 but in real life it's not as what you would call a truck "you can trust"

[tepid yew]

eats brake discs twice as much as mp3 and clutches too

mostly after 5-6 years a new engine is needed

[bright salmon]

@outer current Please mind your language

[tawny moth]

Classic MP4 broken down

[outer current]

What? Because I said shit?

[uncut vapor]

Not broken, just need oil

[frosty peak]

Truck form my work, driver is fine

[wooden bronze]

The bank collapsed?

[frosty peak]

Yea it is very soft in this area and that truck loaded weights about 40 tones

So he didn't stand a chance when he got into it

[wooden bronze]

Ooof. And liquid. Centre of gravity would've moved, so no saving it...

Lol, thought you meant it was yours :P

nah sorry, i wish lol

unfortunately I dont have 150k burning a hole in my pocket

i've always liked w900s

something about an 80 some inch sleeper with a shark sized nose

[fading idol]

lol. same. also like the 389s. what are your thoughts on the w990 @pale portal

[pale portal]

i dont know any technical details, but they dont look bad at all

i dont really like this tho

[fading idol]

the extended top?

I like the w990s. had one pull up to me the other night and turned on his blue accent/underglow lighting. it was a pretty sweet truck 😄

[pale portal]

nah just the shape of that triangle

its makes the rest of the truck look out of place imo

[thick cedar]

Well finally got upgraded at swift from training, and had a choice between 3 shitty trucks so I took this one. Cummins X15 efficiency (400hp, 1750lb torque) 10 speed. So basically like the default in ATS lol. Don't worry unlike most of the guys who work for swift I know how to not hit shit lol.

[pale portal]

XD, hey at least its a little easier to get into swift than some other companies, especially helps that you know what ur doing

[bright salmon]

@thick cedar Mind your language please
