Hi all. For those that know me some might have noticed my absence of the last twelve plus months.
I had a job change about 15 months ago. This job was anywhere from 12 to 17 hours a day with the average been 14.
Due to these long hours I have not been on this forum.
I did try a few times but found my self falling asleep at the computer so gave up.
I have now changed jobs for shorter hours to get my life back.
Looking forward to getting back on board and I would imagine there being quite a few newbies joined since then.

No. Last job was a Kenworth. New job I would rather not say what I drive as it is embarrassing.

Sold the park back in Jan 2016 Did interstate trucking for about 12 months.
Then got a local job delivering stock feed to farms.
I am now driving a milk tanker, picking up from dairy farms.
I still have on my bucket list to drive a road train up the middle like you once did.

If I remember you did say you wanted to do some steering. well done for following thru with it.
Done several more road train trips and wonder how many more the heart can cope with, with all the idiot drivers out on the open road.
Welcome back and hope you enjoy the forum
Cheers Ean

Definitely nothing wrong with the milk tanker. It's what is pulling it that I don't like.
