id would have loved the job you have when i was truck driving mate, but i cant drive trucks anymore due to me accident, i can only drive a car with hand controls now because my accident paralysed me from the chest down.
im going to the U2 gig, would you be able to get me in to where they park the trucks so i can get some photos & buy you a couple of beers & have a chat, as other gigs ive been to they seem to be locked behind fences, or even a back stage pass would be ace & id’e be in your debt forever mate. 
cheers

keep them coming,just a quick question mat/carl, your trucks, i know are missing the rear wing tops but why does the rear of the unit look like its lowered all the time, or is it my eyes?
just wondered thats all
They do sit low when stationary, but i believe that when they get going they do sit up a bit more level.

hello mate, i missed this, it all depends which gig your going to,a backstage pass is out of the question, but depending where the trucks are i may be able to help out, cant promise anything though

hello mate, i have no idea, i dont think its your eyes as i have always wondered this, it only seems to be low ride dafs which look this way
yer it looks like cab is leaning back etc
was on tramsam facebook page, some job that you have got
hey guys,
its because the trailers are mega cube(massive internal space) theyre run on smaller profile tyres to bring them in at or under the 4.0m euro height limit, therefore fitting more stuff into the trailers (in this job u will usually cube out space wise before weight limits come in) allthough u do have to watch the loading over the drive axles!

but if you look at scanias mercedes etc, their low rides never seem to lean back like the dafs do (or is it just me?)
right, another selection. these ones are from a friend of mine who used to work for both h c wilsons and mdf transport, and he said i can put these on the internet for others to view

Scanny’s Mercs Ovlov’s etc seem to sit flat, just your DAF’s look like they wanna pull a wheelie
