Plan Re Videos Going Forward

Hullo all. We made it to Friday! Hurray! Anyway as I’ve been thinking a lot when I nave licence back and working again I’m going to ramp up my social media and video activities, it’s the very least I can do after you’ve all been so very kind, emotionally and financially. I’d be in a very dark place now without you lot!

Anyway want to make some instructional videos at home basically talking about what a particular word means, how it works etc. So on my list in hanging trailers and talking about Euro rails and differences. Another will be white diesel/red diesel/CNG etc. Basically words like that as experienced drivers we know exactly what they mean but new drivers might be too embarrassed to ask. As you know I’ve always been vocal about young/new drivers and how we need more of them and encouraging them. An antidote to all the usual trucking pages where it’s usually a sea of old buggers telling any new drivers brave enough to ask for advice not to bother, Truck driving is crap etc. So yes, things I should mention. And also if you are someone knowledgeable in that particular area I’m not, ADR tankers for instance, you’d be willing to advise me of what to put in video.

Anyway gone off on one a bit! This is my favourite lorry of all ones Dads ever had! Well after the amazing DAF 3600 that a part timer put on its side on M25/M40 slips after it had been allocated to Dad for 2 weeks. Went to Madrid in this and she kept getting unusual looks as they weren’t known over there at all, so people surprised to see DAF below Leyland.

Anyway have a lovely rest of day all.

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...
