Last lorry that you drove

[dave_the_renegade]

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.

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

Hey, First and last one for a living, now from time to time short trips for MOT or else but most underneath of them , but no one could measure up with my yelo Fullered or 76 Super Sweethearts

Here’s the last lorry I drove for a living…

…and, more recently, here’s the last lorry I drove for the sheer joy of it (alas, off road)…

…and I do hope I’ll get to drive the odd vintage ERF while I still have a licence! Robert

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.
