If it’s company bling the drivers pay for it by their low wages.

All you have to do is look at the 20 drivers cars in our yard to prove that what you are saying is ■■■■■■■■ !!!

Figures please.

Why do people on this bloody forum think its ok to demand the posting of drivers pay just because they run tidy trucks? Why don’t you post who you work for and exactly how much you get paid first eh? And what you drive. It may amaze a lot of you but lots of drivers get to drive really nice trucks with wages that they are happy with. Whites drivers I know drive nice trucks, work hard and get paid well. They hardly have much of a turnover of drivers. He’s also got good drivers he can rely on, not drivers that will sit on a bay for three hours then pull outside and grab a 45 minute break, or refuse to go anywhere because a marker light is out. There are a few companies like that, good trucks decent pay, but most of them have one thing in common, they wont employ pedantic jobsworths. And that’s becoming increasingly rare in the UK these days. Anyway, got to go, shock horror Ive a bulb to change on the trailer. :wink:

Edit, I agree with everything The Pariah says. Ill do what I want with my money, if that means spending some on my truck who is anyone else to judge. Just like I wouldn’t judge someone for spending a fortune getting drunk.

YOU SIR, are just keeping on his good side,just in case it goes pear shaped where you are:-)
You have tasted 700 plus of the horse and you don’t want it to end.
Go on deny it.

Either that or he’s trying to get Bertie a job

I used to follow the “British Tipper Trucks” page on Facebook, but got bored hearing how “awwwwwsummmmm” that lorry is. Constant postings about how anyone who doesn’t like it is jealous etc etc and a shame all other tipper drivers don’t show pride in their wagons…

What’s the big handrail thing on the front for, my guess is it folds down for al fresco nights out.

Id be ashamed to drive that.looks tacky and as if a waine has smeared it in glue and tossed crappy truckshop tat at it

That wagon doesn’t night out apparently. Their wagons tip at Earthline occasionally, you should here grown men (allegedly) go goo goo at the sight of it.

I’d rather burn my money than bling the gaffers truck.

I’d also rather walk than drive a Scania sorry Scrapia.

Just because you all don’t like it , no need to sit slagging it off. If the driver likes it and the gaffer does the who gives a ■■■■. Not affecting how you do hour job or affecring your life They probably think your plain crap boring axor or whatever you drive is ■■■■.

And rather walk then drive a scania :unamused: :unamused: get a ■■■■■■■ grip. Are you all part of the “wouldn’t get outta bed for £15 an hour but only really earn half that” Brigade too.

People need to chill out , leave people to do what they want and just live there own life. Bit sad really but there you go , drivers will be drivers. Moaning old women. :wink:

I never said I was on 15 an hour, but you can keep your scania’s!

Oohh thats hit a nerve

Just don’t understand drivers that slag drivers off for abit of pride / appreciation . Fair enough that tipper is slightly OTT for a day driver but the driver is happy. Happy driver equals more / better work and better home life.

I wouldn’t spend ££££ getting my motor to look like that but if I got a job there n gaffer said that’s yours, I wouldn’t be ‘ashamed’ just get on with it

Yes and everyone has opinions. But why not ignore the thread or just say “not my cup of tea” rather than call it hideous and ■■■■ and tacky etc etc

You had a ■■■■ £20 pelmet In the window, I didn’t like it but didn’t slag it off, its your choice to have it in so crack on.

£20? Don’t insult me it wasn’t even half that. :laughing: Tippers look nce when clean but when you go to ■■■■■■ places like Viridor at Ardley you soon lose interest.

I certainly wouldn’t waste time keeping it that clean, 10 minutes max washing per night if I was back early enough.
