We back! Trying out my vlog again ! Quick update while in Rome 🇮🇹

[@drivewithig]

Class David , best of luck very tidy outfit for your first unit and trailer 👍🏼

[@bigneil8888]

“Always coming first” brilliant 😂

[@d1986scott]

Big respect for doing this. Not afraid to admit I wouldn’t have the balls or a clue where to even start as much as I’d love to give it a go.

[@johnlewis58]

Love your honesty David 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@stugill4513]

hi m8 just a couple of ideas from when i was going over the water , i always got a ferry in the middle of the night allways alot cheeper , and alot of times id go a day early and use the national roads rather than the motorways cuts a massive amount of tolls out . also work into scandavia pays alot better than heading to the normal southern countrys

[@Carlos_70]

Enjoyed ya video and look forward to watchin more of em. I also want to wish you the very best of luck with your business. take it easy n enjoy yaself mate.

[@TheDarrenc1973]

Love it dude, great first vlog, video quality was good sound quality was good and content will increase the more you do...

[@markm-ci6rj]

The Vatican City is the smallest city by area but also the world's smallest country!!!
Good video, nice to see someone with ambition, also nice to see a video were someone is not showing off. Wishing you lots of success.
Ex OD!

[@robertpenning3501]

Hi David, How refreshing to come across a vlogger that is open and honest. I have a keen interest in what you are doing being an ex trucker (now retired and living in Southern France). Bon courage and I look forward to your next video.

[@Mushyboy007]

Nice truck, just right and not a penny owed, good on ya

[@callummaxwell3892]

Top video mate, hope everything goes well for you ❤

[@craigtodd7180]

This is fantastic David. You're doing what I've dreamed of for years but don't have the balls to do it. Wish you the very very best of luck for your future endeavours.

[@WeAreThePeople1690]

Big step going out on your own, you have the right attitude to make it work. Your right about the costings and stuff I wouldn't be putting too much of that stuff in your videos. Its refreshing to see a smiling face in these types of videos, accept for access is the only other one who, like yourself trys to put a positive on all the content. Can't wait for the next video.

[@patrickorourke152]

Cracking video lad and a total different prospective to what everybody else is doing keep em coming

[@nickmorris3859]

Love that you are so open and honest about everything mate. Makes it less worrying for other people wanting to get into being an owner driver.
Love the vlog and looking forward to the next one 🤙

[@kevinprobin2401]

Good luck with it mate genuinely hope it works for you 👍

[@pronsiasmacraghnaill2320]

Best of luck David in your new venture, you’ve got the right attitude to succeed I see you with 5 or 6 trucks in a couple of years, it will come quicker than you can imagine. Was told years ago if you’re gonna go OD you better have a tough boss for the first few years, that was spot on. Enjoy the ride and never give up!

[@Connors-xu8gs]

Good luck buddy. Nice to see someone genuinely enjoying what they are doing.

[@lewiswhite587]

Appreciate the honesty, hope it all goes well for you mate. Looking forward to more videos
Nobody else is doing it this way, will help out us that want to do something similar in the future massively

[@62nidge]

Hey up dave, Great to see you hope you're ok good luck in you're new venture

[@131ikd3]

Good luck David on your new venture, be careful speaking about your figures etc 👍

[@cafedeltransit]

Hi David.The only thing I can think off that may help your finances a bit is buying a card for the Mont Blanc,I only done Euro work in my van but I used to buy a a book/ card of 10 journeys through the MB and it was a lot cheaper doing it this way,a lot of my work was in Italy so worked out well for me.
Sure someone has probably already to you that and I’m unsure whether you can do that for an artic but I’d of thought if you can for a van you can for an artic.Obviously would depend on how much Italian work your doing but from memory I think the card had a years validity on it🤔may have been two..? Safe travels fella👍

[@davidwoolf6948]

Brilliant Dave, fantastic vlog thanks for the van breakdown etc and keeping it real.

[@garyroberts8170]

[@paulwilkes1783]

Good video mate

[@perry85]

[@frankgarside7641]

keep up the good work from 1ex european driver

[@osprey2k5]

Looking forward to the upcoming vlogs but as you said you need to be very careful about divulging details of the financial side of your business as there a some very unscrupulous people out there but you seem pretty level headed so good luck in your new venture and keep the vlogs coming 👍

[@Rob-on-the-Road]

Have you tried for the AS24 card and Euro box?

[@BenLovesPlanes]

Get the vlogs moving! The truck will be paid off before you know it when your sub count increases!!

[@TolaTrucking]

Is that Wayne Rooney?

[@alrightdave6135]

Great vlog. Maybe try and stop waving your arm around though? It’s distracting.

[@Matthew-yi7de]

No finance owned out right, yeah okay pal. What ever you say 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@alrightdave6135]

Why the hate? And you are? £12 k for the truck, it’s not exactly a lot of cash.

[@alrightdave6135]

Stick to your guns mate. The haulage industry is full of complete and utter tools, especially the clog wearing euro boys.

[@johnbarnes9379]

The Merc is nothing to be ashamed of and in my opinion will out live most Scanias re sale included
