on Wednesday, February 7, 2011 at about 13 o’clock I was slightly troubled by a white actros with a white caseauflieger(both charter way) on the southern berlin ring between triangular Nuthetal and triangular Potsdam during the first overtaking process on which he and also I gave our horns signal at the second overtaking process he braked behind my front man and pulled over to the right where he pressed me on the side strip (well that no one had a pan) then I directed a a safe distance when he suddenly came to the stand slower and with a full brake.I also made a full brake and took off on the second track drove past and he hung his upper body out of the window and threatened with the fist. such people do not belong on the road and especially not in a 40 tonner just weapons. achja we drove in a lkw column of about 20 lkw with 80km/h-90hm/h that always swung. I was the second last he the last naja you know Yes.

Hello, what hourly wage is usual if you drive on 400€ base trucks? I mean vehicles for which you need the Fsk CE, in local transport and only day trips. What do you find here a reasonable wage?

The MAN TGL8180 (built in 2008; weight 7.5t) has an average consumption of 17-19 l/100km, i.e. about 23 euros (net) Diesel costs per 100km The last inspection (total approx. 11,000km; 6,000km after first service) resulted in repair costs of almost 2000 euros, and therefore my question whether there are experiences/opinions about it. Although only 6,000km since the last oil change was carried out again, costs 287,- excl. value added tax !! Although almost 2 years old, the batteries became g test, distilled water is added and then replaced, although there were NIE start difficulties (functioned electrically excellent, and started before this service easier and faster than after). Costs 558,- excl. tax (of which 260,- for the batteries, rest of work) warranty is obviously not available on MAN batteries after one year. More: change ÖL rear axle (after 11,000km??): Euro 122,— air dryer and air filter cartridges change Euro 184,— side marking lights (the Euro 224,- Total with Decra/TÜV and VAT almost 2000 Euro. In sum 0,30 to 0,40 Euro/Kilometer only for service costs, much higher than the fuel costs. Must be calculated with such high service costs at the TGL8180 or are there other experience values (with low annual mileage) ? Bzw one can expand the oil change to 2-3 years ? VIELEN DANK FOR EVERY NOTE/INFOS !!

Hello guys, I got a problem with the police today. Because I was traveling home with my truck with a horse trailer from a riding tournament. After a break I was stopped by a friendly police officer and pointed out the Sunday driving ban, because I was sure that I was allowed to drive because I had my horse transporter registered especially at the Tüv as a horse transporter after the conversion. Had I thought nothing at all during the control. Then the gentleman i n green, which I have violated against this prohibition. Because my vehicle is a self-remodelled suitcase truck which the TÜV has registered me as a cattle transporter. As an additional note the TÜV has registered me in the papers, vehicle for the transport of horses. The registration as special vehicle for sports and tournament horses he did not write me in, because he did not find this in his catalog. Although I actually wanted it so explicitly. He only said that that was enough. He said in the registration office that he can only write in what the Tüv wrote in the report. Now I should pay about 70 euros and get a point. The policeman advised me not to admit the violation and also kept everything on photos so that the judge in the photos really saw the horses. What should I do now best not to pay the penalty? Who makes the right registration?

Hello, I’m new here and need some information from you. First of all, I’m 24 years old, Michael, and I’m driving an Actros limb train every now and then. Origin: Lower Bavaria. That should be enough. Now to my project: I have to build a tilt hydraulic on a chassis so that I can tilt a saddle tipper. The whole thing is powered by a PTO shaft or PTO shaft pump. Here are my questions: 1.What do I need to tip a conventional saddle tipper? n. Of course: PTO shaft pump Oil filter tank Return course Various hoses 2.How big does the tank have to be, how much liters of oil need 2-axis or 3-axis tipper? 3.How does this work with the tilting of your trucks?Somewhere must be a valve, where I can control the pick-up and draining. 4.What flow should you choose 5.How much liters should the oil pump bring and at what pressure? For the time being it should have been. ‘There will certainly be more. Thanks for your answers.

My driver card has been in the table for 2 years. Soon, however, I will need it, whereby our trucks still run with disk, the saddle that I have to drive will lose the card. Forwarding is in place A – I drive however from place F to N. dh – read out etc. ok – what is on the card on it, that doesn’t matter; but what interests me is that – if I drive now every Friday from Nuremberg to Frankfurt and back again in the future, at some point the card has to be Is there a company that takes care of this and transmit the data ? or since I did not use the card for almost 2 years now, can it be “neutralized” ?

Hello Truckers, my driver card is running out. I already have the new one, but, at the driving license station, I was told that I had to read out the old card, the speedometer and the card on the expiry day. Could I do the same, but the expiry day is a Saturday, free of work, company closed. Besides, I have 2 days’ vacation before. Now I ask you what to do now? Someone certainly has the solution ready.

Hello, I have a question about the UPS trucks / vans. (picture) I heard that you can buy discarded UPS vans, is that right ? Can you just ask at the next UPS place or to whom you can vill. still turn? Would be really great if you could help me. Do you need a truck driver’s license for such a van (picture) or is the normal car driver’s license sufficient ? Up to 3500 kg you can drive everything with car F.. I have been in the car for a long time now. Internet wanted, but unfortunately found nothing. Would be happy about a few tips and answers 🙂 mfg

I would be interested in how the new turbo couplings in the SLT actros prove themselves. Seems to be a very good system and as much as I know, such couplings have often been used in other industries than heavy transport. Since my father is now probably getting a new SLT titan 4165 8×6 he would have liked to know how the thing behaves when starting and how the Powershift transmission works. Thanks in advance!!! mfg freak4lkw

Hello, have a question again. I have now applied for my driver card. Comes in three weeks. Now, however, I should steer a vehicle that has a digital recording device tomorrow. My boss said that I can steer this if I express myself before I start driving. After my driving time I should then express myself again and that would be okay. I have now stumbled on something on the net and have met with other statements. What do you think about it? If my information is I’ll call my boss in the morning and tell him I won’t move the car, especially because I’m still waiting for my June pay. But I’m afraid I’m going to have another topic.
