Last lorry that you drove

Here’s one for all the retired lorry drivers, and ex drivers who packed the job in for various reasons.
What was the last lorry that you drove on a public road ?
Cheers Dave.

This Merc was the last HGV Ridgid I drove last year, 40ft overall length, Regards Larry.

Foden alpha , started on fodens and finished on one . 1963 to 2004 .

This is the last one I drove as an owner driver, Regards Larry.

My last drive when I finished in 2002, but snapped here by a forum member in an earlier guise before my firm purchased it from a scrapyard and re-engined it. Originally owned by ARC in Abergavenny.

This was the last one on public roads,i do drive a tipper part time in a mine,but that’s ‘‘off road’’ so doesn’t count

Eric,

One of those God-awful Renault Premium things, but only because they were all the firm had left before the gates were closed for good.

And you’re asking me if I’m heading to sammy Morgan’s before closing?

Just hope there’s no VOSA chap around, Dennis, he’ll take a dim view of the way that blue trailer’s coupled to the dolly.
