Not much going on

Good evening/night/morning/afternoon* all. Hope life finds you all well. Not much happening of interest in the past week, plus as well as my iPhone being away for repair for the next couple of weeks I've lost the camera charger so I'm afraid the site will be a bit low on pictures for a while. On the plus side I'm putting together a video which should be sorted for next week.

Anyhow it's been a bit of a sad week for me, Steve Jobs was a hero of mine. I don't have many heroes but he was certainly one. He changed the world and was/is a massive inspiration. So it's a very truck free update this week I'm afraid. It was my birthday today and I made my first cake! In the shape of the Apple logo in memory of the Big J.





This was a great piece of design from a 19 year old design student in Hong Kong





And finally the great man himself, I like this picture





So sorry for bombarding you with Apple stuff. Normal service will be resumed shortly.

A SHORT DAF XF REVIEW

DAF Review So, one of most common questions I'm asked lately is what I think of the DAF. Obviously for a long time time I've mostly driven Volvos and Scanias and before this job it was well over a decade since I last tramped full time in a DAF (for HSF). As you know though I had driven later models and hated the body XF with a passion!  When the current version came out DAF seemed very confidant it would change my mind about them in our Twitter exchanges but I thought how different can it be? The answer? A lot. In some ways its like a completely different truck despite being almost identical in looks. Firstly- the gearbox. The auto on previous DAFs was a fupping disaster and everyone knew it! Show, jerky and just generally rubbish in a way no auto should be this late in the day. That's completely changed, for the vast majority of the time it's indistinguishable from an iShift (that having long been the good standard). Yes it has its odd moments but they are very rare an...
