Traffic news reports only tell you the bad news when you’re already stuck in it anyway, so a complete waste of time.

Who are the knobs who do this? they can hardly listen to them in their car or at home.

I have driven some right old nails 1625 merc 1629 “Powerliner” (with clicky clicky gears) G290 Renault, Foden 8 wheel tipper (scary brakes) I currently smoke a backsore which has a bit of the seddon atkinson about it. None of these hold a candle to the pile of annoying junk that is Scania, crappy 3 speed box, a park bench for a seat, candles for headlights the wayne Roony of the truck world* you never get bored in a Scania as you spend all your time trying to keep it going in straight line closely followed by anything rigid or a d*****r.

*highly overated.

I love reading the bile that’s directed at Scanias, most entertaining. I do wonder how peoples views on the are awful or amazing. I’m in latter camp.

N reg Merc 2527 absolute pile of ‘zb’
Prob in Africa or somewhere similar since I wrecked the gearbox

Well the MAN fitted with the Tip-matic autobox with the fleet software(identified by "FLEET"on rotary knob) must be right up there… :unamused: No manual gear selection possible except when starting off or on over-run, no kick down facility… Steering wheel attendent can sum it up…

got to be eight leg foden that had mind of its own trying to go in a straight line and gear selection that was a guessing game :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp:

bloody “plastic” Iveco !!! horrible truck the only good thing was if u hit the clutch enough u coul get it to 70 :stuck_out_tongue:

Anything limited to 52 or less.
