Always great to hear and see something new from you and your DAF.
The pic "way home" is awesome, excellent quality shot.

Thanks for your Support.

New Stuff incoming, many Changes..

------->

Saturday tour, take my 45 minute break and then go home :mrgreen:

New customer to deliver. Here we supply EBS, which is substitute fuel, chopped up plastic. We will now deliver to this customer every week.
And not exactly my favorite tour. You have to load at 6 a.m. and you only have to unload at 12 p.m.
But it only takes 3 hours to get to the customer. Unfortunately, you cannot unload earlier.

Late in the evening you're home too. Start early and late at home. Not my favorite tour :roll:

[ external image ]


Once I didn't make the tour because my time slot was booked incorrectly. That meant loading at 6 a.m. and at 2 p.m. after work, because the customer was only open until 2 p.m. for reloading.

What a week's vacation, now it's time to prepare for the trucker meeting.

[ external image ]


Got new wheel arch covers, I painted them directly. I will only use this for truck meetings.

[ external image ]


In addition, the truck was at the foiling machine. The side paneling was wrapped in black, the skylight borders were made black and the light box was also new glued.

[ external image ]


There will also be some changes in the interior. A little more Danish pluche.

So also painted wheel arches. Almost everything is now ready for the trucker meeting.

[ external image ]


The day has come. The trucks have been cleaned, and now we're waiting for the rest, and then it's off to the meeting.

[ external image ]


Arrived, the list is made. Now the cozy part begins.

[ external image ]


The light show begins.

[ external image ]


So here a little interior.

[ external image ]


The meeting is over, it was very cool. After the first week, wash it down again straight away.

[ external image ]


Last weekend I brought my colleague's truck home because he ran out of driving time.

[ external image ]


Trial course with the cooler. Hope it starts soon, then it’s finally going international. Later meetup with the Dispatcher :mrgreen:

[ external image ]


All cops are beautiful. :twisted:

And as a finale. I converted everything back to orange. I just like it much better.

[ external image ]


Hope you like my Stuff :mrgreen: See ya

Thanks for your Support =)

Some new Stuff inflying

--->

Early in the morning at the loading dock. I get a load of cardboard, which is a small trip to a small processing company about 10 kilometers away 8-)

[ external image ]


After a long day I was home at 11 p.m. Just get a parking space.

[ external image ]


Next morning 8 o'clock. It continues in the daily madness.

[ external image ]


Made a little detour. Unload again, load and then back again.

[ external image ]


A couple of my WSI and Tekno models :mrgreen:

[ external image ]


This Friday tour was something very special.
The unloading date was only 8 p.m. I picked up the load the day before.
I had the whole of Friday off until evening.
I then drove in a convoy (Just like in ATS/ETS2 Multiplayer) with my colleague because we had the same load and the same unloading date.
I was then back home at 1 a.m. and had the weekend.
It was a lot of fun.

[ external image ]


The day before yesterday I met a good friend again and discussed a little about additional lighting.

[ external image ]


Red Light District. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[ external image ]


Since I don't have to do the loading, I use the time to watch some TV.

[ external image ]


Transfer drive of a new Renault T Evolution. Very nice color.
But the Magnum is also a very nice vehicle.
Back then, my father drove a Magnum.
Renault is love ;)

[ external image ]


And now the hot shi* comes. May I introduce. Our new MAN.
One of the first with mirrorcams.
I'm not a fan of mirrorcams. But everyone as he likes.
We will get this at the beginning of 2022 because it is not quite finished yet.
It is a MAN Individual, that is, one of the more upscale Model variants.

And with this brand-hot information, I'll let you go into the weekend. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: See ya.

Really cool DAF mate, I wonder how the blacked-out skylights would look on your truck...

Nice new MAN too, love the black on black rims
