What names have you got for the old lorries you used to drive (or still do!), one of my favourites is
“Sudden Accident” Seddon Atkinson
I thought it would be good to have a thread dedicated to nicknames for trucks.
In Australia Fiat trucks are sometimes called “Fix It Again Tony!” For best effect it must be said in an Italian accent with one hand raised while shaking your arm.
MAN’s are sometimes called “Mean And Nastys”. For those of us that have worked on them will know what I’m on about.
Here in NZ Japanese trucks are called 'Rice Burners" and ERF and Foden are called “Pommie Kenworth’s”,due to the simular engines and running gear as Kenworths.

What about the Merc’s----HITLERS REVENGE.
Not quite the same, but our first D Series, was a 7.5 tonne Reg. No. POF ■■? R. Our other two being Commers, it soon became affectionately known as “POF the magic wagon.”

What about the Foden of the late seventies,commonly known as the Pig.

FL volvo’s were fanny lickers ( because they were low to the ground )
Pre Powerliner Merc’s were downhill dashers ( wouldn’t pull the skin off a rice pudding )
Any V8 Scania was " A man’s motor " and you always asked everyone with a straight six " where’s the rest of it "
