Why do some truckers drive such crappy cars?

[eagerbeaver]

Pmsl, please tell me you’re gonna do this ‘crab looking’ move at 29 seconds in! youtu.be/z_T81uUeZcM

Security perhaps, the car park at some companies my not be very secure so why leave a decent motor in there. Also, possibly the fact that we know there are many many drivers out there who don’t give a monkeys, so wouldn’t want to back and find someone has hit it, scraped it, scratched it or whatever!!? I drive a fairly decent motor I would like to think and I am very particular as to where abouts in the car park I leave it!!

I dont take the car, it’s only 13.8 Km to work so I cycle. Chained to the bike park with the front wheel in the cab with me, unless it’s going to rain in which case the whole bike rides on the bed.
My car is a Lexus, hers is a Clio, daughters is a fiesta.

I feel your pain ■■■■ good cars though, shame the fuel consumption wasn’t a bit less. Sold mine as atrocious around town and only ave. 33.7 mpg on a 600 mile run driving like an old ■■■■ and even with the snow button on

Hence the bike rides, it only goes out on a weekend. But as the salesman said, life’s too short to drive crap cars.

my car is 16 years old…but it keeps getting me to work

Sounds like sometimes you wish it wouldn’t…[emoji6]

Life is mostly too short if one spends thousands of hours paying for cars too.

Work out what percentage of one’s working life you might spend @ whatever hourly rate you get - paying for the car, paying for the interest on the finance, paying and paying sometimes long after you’ve sold it on, or settled the finance early - with even more fees amounting to more than the entire cost of an old banger on the road for another year…

I don’t even have a clapped out £100 banger as my car. I’ve got an old clapped out pit pony which I ride to work on a Monday and chain up in the field at the side of the yard where he can chew the cud and drop his load all week untill I get back on the Friday where he’s always a right morngy ■■■■ untill I get the old apples out and then he’s happy to ride me home.

[klunk_cumbria]

Did the salesman tell you that as a friend or as someone who is paid a crap basic wage and has to make the rest on commission?

[xichrisxi]

I run a £500 Clio to work and back,I’ve had “expensive” cars on finance before ect but the Clio serves its purpose and if it breaks I’ll buy another,it’s great not worrying about where you’ve left it either.
I decided against getting another car on finance and instead saved a deposit for a new build property,can’t live in a car can you?..yes I know technically you can but I’d rather not.

[bugcos]

We have a 64 plate Astra. Bought new in jan this year, and I have just bought myself a 57 plate tdv8 range rover, because I wanted one, although we have spent a lot of money on cars this year, we both had our previous vehicles 8 years.

[eagerbeaver]

Just been practising the robot in the front room. The old move’s came flooding back. Thought about busting the moonwalk out to impress the 9 year old lad. Left slipper got caught on the rug and I fell arse over ■■■.

Not one to give up easily, I decided to go large. CATERPILLAR TIME. Bad idea. Wife’s favourite photo frame taken clean out by a flailing right hand. 9year old ■■■■■■■ himself at fully grown adult Father getting the biggest bollocking ever off irate Mum.

Glad you find it funny orange one.

You aren’t the one who has to trawl Amazon for a bloody set of photo frames to fix the break-dancing chaos.
