You don't want to do it in a truck, I can tell you .................................... A fella I knew once worked with some of those fellas on that show, his opinion of them wasn't very much and I can't use his description on here ........................

Dust, bone shaking ride all great fun until a tie rod end falls off or you have to change the 4th tyre for the day and they are all insides................ Yep, insane.... when we going, I just have to repack my old tool box and the old Engel.

Funny that, I cringe at the ads for that show even though I watch most episodes, I often wonder what other drivers or other countries must think, for me its embarrassing to say the least. I guess ice road truckers is similar, not Lisa though she's cool :)

Any Truckie would just sit back and wonder who would hire some of those blokes, truly cringe worthy ................

PS: ........................ I was a TRUCKIE not a Trucker.

I watch it for the locations some of them go to. Like any other show, the drivers are made to look like what the producers want them to so dont really take that much notice.

Some of the antics that the "producers" think is entertainment is complete rubbish. The woman overtaking a car/van arrroaching a level crossing, double lines, just all wrong and she was penalised big time. And the drongo recently released from jail for fraud. I only watch episodes featuring Steve Grahame.
Truckie a long time ago too Drover.
