does this offend you?
truckyboy:
I agree with rob on this one, maybe they have more money than sense…i cant understand why people spend lots of money telling everyone they drive a Volvo…Daf…Scania etc…when all of these trucks have the name across the grill anyway…then there are those who want to tell us how many horses they have as well…big letters painted on the side saying…450…470…580…etc…whats that all about…more money than sense…like the brigade who try and beat each other with how many spot lights they can fit on the front…ive seen 12...6 top..6 bottom...i never need anything more than my normal beams...Maybe they should work for a proper company like mine....you musnt show, name plates..cuddly toys..in fact nothing in the window except tax,
o` licence…dart tags…no flags…spotlamps…the windscreen should be clear…if not you get a disciplinary…its because the company own the trucks…not the drivers…and on the days when they are resting…others drive those vehicles.
sounds like you’re secretly miserable about not being allowed to put your own mark on the truck you drive, and that other people drive it
i put whatever mods i want on my bosses unit, im the only one who ever drives, if im off, its off, and thats how I like it.
OMG OMG OMG
ive got mudflaps on the front of my truck
Every one is diffrent , A chap on Brs once had to pick my truck up from Yorkshire and when he got back he reported that my truck stunk of air freshners , the chap stopped him in his tracks by reminding him his truck stank of crap and ■■■■
.
The chap never ever washed or cleaned his truck .
Id love some on the front of my car, but id prefer them with rude words on instead of Scania or Volvo

And you’ve got too many trailers
3 pages about 2 small rectangular bits of low grade rubber
They are ■■■■ flaps actually, they help stop any splashback onto the paintwork when having a piddle in the MSA lorry park.

Yeah, should’ve been Super Spaces, or even better, Globetrotters And green is unlucky on vehicles so my Mrs says, very offensive.
Nice front mudflaps though fella!
The Sarge:

Rob K uttered … “When did the current “trend” of putting mud flaps on the wrong side of the wheels start? Is it just me that thinks it looks utterly stupid?”
It’s been going on since the dawn of civilisation. People like to make themselves look unique by doing foolish things.
Wearing your mudflaps backwards is no different to having a tattoo. Both serve no purpose other than making yourself look different. I got nothing gainst tats and nothing gainst backwards mud flaps. I simply don’t feel so insecure in myself that I need to mark myself with tats or backwards mudflaps to stand out from the crowd.
Freud said in his late work that mutilating your body with tattoos (or ‘pimping’ yourself or your property) is a sign of insecurity and ultimately repressed homosexuality.

On a similar note, when did the trend of attaching sink chains to the corners of your bumper start? And what do they do?

Now a rose or a small butterfly on a pert buttock is ok, but no, a bloke with a lorry on his back looks as bad as mudflaps the wrong way round.
Chains on the bumper are to stop static, CD’s in the window shield you from speed cameras, blue lights make you gay and none of those things are ever seen on the cool wall
hes also got back boobage

Nice, proper old school livery and a refreshing absence of ridiculous curtains and football stadium lights.
Given the choice I’d go for the one on the left.
well i have read a few comments about this but cant be ar*ed to read them all but my opinion is simply this it is the drivers/owners choice to how they want their motor to look i actually think it looks smart,it seems some people on here drive for a living just for the money and not for liking the job and to be in a smart looking motor…if mud flaps (fitted in the wrong place…fool) take 1mpg away from the factory set up then these must be proper heavy or extremely big …some pride effort and money is poured into makeing motors look smart and worthy of going to shows such as truckfest and seems that there are some drivers that will travel a distance and give up a weekend to visit truck shows which in my eyes is how most drivers used to be about 20 years ago it was a great job to have and a great laugh untill people like you came along and started killing it off …my opinion only

I enjoy the job but I’ll only have “bling” on it if the firm pay for it. Not my job to make it look good.
which is fair play but your not the one that posted a pointless topic about mudflaps…if people like them then why not put them on
