    That looks like such a thrill. I really wanna get my manual restriction removed & drive my Dad's '94 FLD.

    Huh... I guess this is why we design trucks quite a bit differently in Europe. Good job, sir.

    I mean, I don't even own a semi, so why am I enjoying watching this?

    Gotta love truck driving. Every turn without hitting something is a small win.

    I come from a trucking family in the UK - I'm glad your roads aren't as narrow as ours BUT you do have longer rigs! I'd much prefer to drive your rig, those things are badass compared to Euro.
