I am not a trucker but I do love to see all the different haulage companies good video greetings from Ireland I have subbed and liked the video. I actually was a helper for a haulage company here in Ireland called Harris I went with the truck driver all over most of Ireland back in the 90s I really enjoyed.I think he drove a Merc truck it was a beautiful Truck both inside as well as out side

Pure pleasure to watch, those 143 were before my time but often travelled on them as a chap. The magnum was such a tall beast in comparison

Those were the days, none of the big brother, ridiculous rules and regs we have now but the video can't give a sense which always brings back the memories, the smell of pre- emission big truck diesels. arrr, such memories.

Whoever that fella is backing in the Walsh Western yoke is a fierce man for the steering wheel. I thought he'd pull the steering column out of it.
