Thanks for posting👍🏼 we bounced up from palmy for it, really glad we brought our truck up for it. Your entire fleet looked amazing, and I think every trucker would have liked todo more to them but at the end of the day they have to work. Shame about the rain but like you we had somewhere to hide.
It's great to see all the vehicles together but I'm afraid being diesels they are really only turning premium fuel into dangerous gas. Here in Australia we had the chance to power vehicles by steam. Diesels are scrap iron jungles at most. Very complicated and costly to run. A friend of mine designed and built a steamer, the lowest emission engine in the world. Took it to America demonstrated it to senators from Washington and the vehicle mfrs. What happened? NOTHING. Suddenly the world did not want a low emission engine. That was nearly fifty years ago. I could be excused for believing a number of things the Australian govt. did to send that company broke. We are that kind of people. The designer had a friend and when they both worked at the Govt. Aircraft Factory he designed and built the first flight recorder. The govt. withdrew their support and sold the technology overseas for peanuts. Imagine every aircraft in the world now has one. When I see a picture of a politician lying in the gutter pissed out of his brain it does not surprise me one bit. I tell young people with a little ambition to leave here fast. I wanted my friend to renounce his citizenship and go to Germany. They had already spent 100Ml. Euros trying to do what he did in a tin shed on a shoestring. Not him.
I can’t tell if this comment is serious or not but I’ll address it as though it is. I don’t think anyone in their right mind has seen steam as a viable power source in trucks for well over 100 years, but here in NZ, electric trucks are being trialled, and Waitomo fuels have just opened a series of hydrogen fuel stops around the North Island, the first of many to come apparently. I don’t believe either of these will see diesels completely replaced in my lifetime, but it’s a step in a greener direction I guess. For now, love it or hate it, diesel trucks are here to stay.
