yeah my grandfather ws a truck driver from the mid 50's to 60's - early 92. he got some stories, mostly ones that cannot be repeated anywhere. he did crash into a house once and spent nearly a year in hospital when my mother was about 8. most of what I learned about truck driving came from him, and watching how he done stuff. asking all the questions of a 7 year old onwards. the only driver I could truely trust, he had a vw golf, and clocked it 2, and a half times well before it's 8th birthday. as for KevTee yes really enjoying the truck build, I partially built a Tamiya Volvo FH, and got a box trailer, working remote ECU, and motorized legs, when I say partially built, then found couldn't put cab interior in, plus the ECU because the ECU had changed from the original design, so got to 3d print something for the ECU to mount to, but not got a 3d printer to do it.

Ill agree with you about Driving in Birmingham I'm a bus driver based in West Bromwich and frequently drive into Birmingham and most people have no patience and try and beat the bus at every chance. Were you were parked at start of video was about half a mile from where I live. Keep up the good work.

Talking of supermarkets when I was warehousing for a independent transport firm, every other day one of our customers would send out a palet which consists of 3 pallets all with one or two boxes in the middle on each pallet and stacked it and shrinkwraped. it seems so stupid that supermarkets can't just sort a mixed pallet out and force suppliers extra costs as they would be sending out 4 Chargeable pallets like this when it could all be placed on the one chargeable pallet space, crazy

I seem to remember you remarking something similar 🤔 Or was that on Twitter? 🤔 BTW I nearly pi$$ed myself when you said the the security guy that you thought he farted 🤣🤣🤣
