[@GBtrucklady]

Yes I do 😀

[@osprey2k5]

I'm with you I can't see why people insist on fitting bull bars on their trucks it's not as if they look all that good 🤷‍♂️

I have friends who love the look and those that don’t. Each to their own I guess.

[@giovannidevos5434]

Scania is more useful in heavy loads climbing in the mountains. .. daf is less power ,more room ,soft comfortabel .... Good luck , be safe and you are lucky with that kind off work

[@GBtrucklady]

Thank you.

[@desmondpatrick1892]

Looking at the combination,it's still running high over the turntable. You would probably be able to shave 2" of height off the front end of the fridge by using lower profile tires on the truck,giving the rig a flat matching profile .However this will alter the final drive ratio giving the truck less fuel mileage..Alternatively higher profile tires on the trailer to even things out.On the continent operators seem to give more time to buying combinations that run flat when running loaded and empty saving crucial height on the trailer .

[@simongranger8131]

Another really good video, just need to get some ear plugs for the chorus of the daf chimes!!!

Hi sherralin ,I find your videos very calm and relaxing to watch I have held my class 1 for only 8 months managed to find dribs and drabs of class 1 through agency I find it inspiring that your so calm with whatever you do I am just about to subscribe to your channel I can only hope once I reach the 1 year milestone I will find a permanent employer held my class 2 for 9 years that doesn't seam to make much difference in the eyes of a employer my digicard is clean too.Look forward to more upcoming videos.

Nice looking Daf. What was the recovery guy thinking putting a strap around the bull bar. The daf always had a great mattress on the bunk.

[@GBtrucklady]

Good question! 😁👍🏻

that was good to now how it is in the UK ..... greatings from sweden..

[@GBtrucklady]

Hello, thanks for watching. You are so more organised to deal with snow up there. We are used to rain lol. We have this sort of “middle weather”, very rare it’s hot like Spain, very rare it’s cold like Sweden. 😀

[@bjornmagnusson259]

hi there ; yes we have snow up here in Sweden,,! But i live in the southern of Sweden close to Trelleborg.. !!But 400 km to the north there is snow and cold.. Greatings from swede

ive got top lockers instead of a 2nd bunk and with them theres plenty of storage space

[@GBtrucklady]

They do make a difference 👍🏻

[@jbbumpkin]

Buying food out seems to be quite a generation thing. I`ve been used to taking food from home, having a flask for hot drinks, even soup when it was cold ad it was a real pain when I had younger work mates who always needed to buy food. You would have to make your site safe and drive off-site and try to find somewhere to park with a larger vehicle. Even worse if you`ve already passed that place on your way to the job but they never said anything. And then they moan because they`ve got no money but they can`t be a***d to bring something from home, even if it`s only a pie and a can of drink!

[@GBtrucklady]

Yep, my thoughts exactly 😀

[@KJRS3001]

Yes I agree, I remember days before all the fast food and garages were for fuel. Cafes and services were the only places. Lads now have to stop in the morning and go out during the day, loses time on jobs.

[@lillocaruso3979]

Nice moter 4x2 all day long.

[@GBtrucklady]

[@dardie37]

I thought you would have got one of his new XG

I’ve only been here a few months, the other drivers are all ahead of me in the new lorry queue 😁

[@Mk-oy9ns]

3" of snow and everything grinds to an halt. ....😂

[@GBtrucklady]

We are very unprepared 😂😂

[@giovannidevos5434]

Bull. Bar was. Too much on the truck and 5litres sulphur acid. I. .. welcome. . . Anytime. Lucky sister i dont have that. Snowchains was safe. Professionals working . Your the. Best 🏅 Another work and.y give white Scania 13800 km. .. loccked is. Better is acid in Spray.

[@chris77777777ify]

Who wants to drive in the snow.? 3” of snow actually shuts down most countries, Drivers don’t carry snow chains. A lorry will get stuck very easily & just wheel spin & it’s the same for cars. Totally agree with food, make as much as you can

[@GBtrucklady]

@@chris77777777ify It’s illegal to use snow chains in the UK. Strangely it’s illegal not to carry/use them in a lot of European countries, including Poland, parts of Germany etc.

[@yodaslovetoy]

OK let address this. The uk gets maybe 1" to 6" of snow a year, that lasts maybe 2 days at most. Yes we're unprepared for it. yes we don't care

[@RonnieCombe-id9ci]

Did you work for Spiers And Hartwell many moons ago ?

Air fryers are great but having no microwave is yesterdays news for me, that's a pretty basic thing to have these days that is useful for many many types of food that you can't do in an air fryer 👍

[@johnp6636]

That was no recovery driver just some 4x4 driver trying to help out them bars are only bolted on any good recovery driver would know that

[@GBtrucklady]

He was from a large, well known recovery company. Unfortunately I’ve only had this lorry for 5 mins, although I didn’t think it was a good idea, I had to leave the decision to the “professional”. You can advise but at the end of the day it was his job.

[@nickaf5262]

I wouldn’t swap a daf for a scania no way

[@GBtrucklady]

Each to their own 😁

[@chris77777777ify]

6X2 are safer, can carry more weight & is better, much rather have a Scania than that Daf.

[@GBtrucklady]

Both combinations are safe. Can only carry 40t in most of Europe (exception being some Nordic countries) so overall weight isn’t an issue with the work I do. Yes I prefer Scania but when you work for someone else you drive what you’re given. 😁👍🏻

[@richardabley7178]

U let snowflake tow u on bar what did u think was goin to happen.

[@vanontherun2843]

hardly her fault the recovery mas is the expert and it's his balls up, I imagine his company will pay for the damage rather than making a claim. I'm no fan of roo bars personally the truck looks a lot better without it, not to mention the extra weight being lugged around and the negative effect on the aerodynamics reducing the mpg of the truck.

[@GBtrucklady]

They’re the “experts”. You can advise but never tell someone how to do their job.

[@imransinghsingh2303]
