poor maintenance

if seen full axles come away from tipper and the only way to get them going is place the axle where it should be at the side of the road :D

its the steer axle tie bars thats snapped, usually from hitting kurbs when laiden

Scania is a good truck but seats are terrible, mine has the delux seat so is a bit better

would rather have an MAN on it

I was going up the M5 last night... near where it joins the M6.

There was someone towing a trailer with a volvo on it (one of the 4wd car ones).

The volvo was secured to the trailer with a single (loose) ratchet strap around the tow bar :shock:
