Truck and Drag or Articulated unit

Depends on the type\size\shape of pallets\Cages etc.Its up to 21 meters of loading space,depending on the configuration of axles.

Beautiful trucks and well looked after. Takes a lot more skill to reverse than an artic. Drove them for about five years and when you go back to an artic it’s a doddle.
Mostly used in Europe which is kinda strange as some on here think any driver not from this country is of a poorer standard! Not the case, how often do you see trucks in the UK that have been looked after so well? :wink:

Very true same over this side some drivers look down to East Euros saying “did you get a lorry licence in the army” its still a E.U drivers licence, so the standard is the same across the board. I will agree that the European lorrys are always kept to a super stamdard. The Holland style/Dutch styled interior is very nice, wouldnt wearshoes tho id say its a nightmare if it gets dirty.
That is just vile.

What is the best option for passing a truck and drag(used to a 18tonne) so it would just be a trailer on the back of that or is it better to change to a Articulated truck.

Ive 2 photos of the Tekno Models you can get online of O’Toole just for a reference to a Truck and drag and Artic.

If you have any preferance over one then the other please comment as Im at the booking lession stage and want to be makig the right move that makes me more employable.

Passed in a wagon+drag but artics better to manoeuvre but practice makes perfect best of luck

Wow, bit too blingy for me but beautifully kept.Yeah good and bad everywhere,also had good and bad driver experience from army drivers.A lot of it’s down to attitude in my book. :wink:

I passed my test then did 23 years on artics. Been on a wagon n drag for a year now. They all said once I’d got used to the drag I wouldn’t want to go back to artics…they were…WRONG! I’d still prefer an artic. Ok, so there are occasions when I do a tight site and think to myself, I wouldn’t have got in there with an artic but overall I still miss them.
