Remember the other week when I posted what could go wrong, did go wrong?
Well, last night was the rest of the bits that didnt happen that week :laughing:
Firstly, could I get under the trailer I was swapping to - no :blush:
What was even worse was that the change over driver was stood next to me :blush:
Then I (finally) got hitched upto the trailer, on goes the red airline, the 2 electrical lines and the ABS but the yellow airline decided to not play ball and decided to split :blush:
The upshot of it was, my Premium got changed for a DAF CF :grimacing:

I bet the other driver dropped it too low and DAF ended up banging his wheel arches and tyres into it. Done that before, stops you sharpish that does :laughing:

15

air suspension ? winding handle on trailer legs ? :confused: were none of these available ? :confused:

i think having a bad day is called getting experience.
so you either learn from it, or you do like many do
jack the driving in. bad days come with the job .
and when the day comes that you spot an issue that might be a problem later for you.
youre getting there to being a driver.

Im going to agree with you there :grimacing:
Unfortunately I had to relinquish the keys to the DAF and back into the Premium :cry:
For a unit that had over a million miles on the clock, it pulled well :sunglasses:

It was either too low or too high, or it had a pinlock fitted.

Doh, isn’t on the list
