“Make Way for the Bad Guy” is the motto of the truck used by Jos Jansen Transport in Everdingen. Jos Jansen has been crazy about trucks since a very young age. It was therefore his dream to become the driver of his very own truck. His dream came true in November 2006 when he received his own King of the Road version of the Scania R500 Topline 4x2 tractor. The Scania was delivered and sprayed by Gerritse in Tiel. Its red colours originate from an International oldtimer......

Jan quickly earned his qualifications to enable him to work as an international truck driver. His younger brother......

Last Saturday, it was time for the Truckers Mystery Tour, which turned out to be a fantastic day. At around midday we all sat in the bus and the question on everyone’s lips was of course “Where are we going to?”. But we were able to maintain the suspense for a while longer, keeping a close eye on the signposts we passed... In the end, Joep Hansen was unable to keep the secret destination to himself: The trip would take us to Dongen, to Mr Mosselaar’s museum......

Curtain side trucks, either trailer or drawbar versions, are common good on the European roads. They characterize themselves by their straightforward manner of (un)loading: slide the curtain sideways fully to ensure loading and unloading capability over the entire length of the truck’s body.

Last Sunday the new model of the Nooteboom ASD 40-22 semi low loader drawbar was introduced at the Mack Day in Utrecht. The ASD 40-22 is primarily deployed in the road construction industry, where rollers and pavers are required that cannot reach the work sites on their own. After the machines have reached the site, however, they usually remain there for a protracted period. This means that the deployment of step frame trailers is less economical. This makes the semi low loader drawbar......
