They don't make it easy for you, do they. 🤣🤣 At least you're getting the warm weather, it's freezing in Scotland,🥶🥶 and the scenery looks amazing.

    Once you have had mirror cam (instead of ordinary mirrors) you won’t want to change back. You never loose the rear of your trailer, and makes it a lot easier to blind side reverse. Brilliant piece of kit, and makes it so much easier, and safer, to see everything around you. Takes away all of the blind spots that big mirrors cause at roundabouts and junctions.

      Old school driver comment... I believe you. I still think they got it wrong when they banned "wing" mirrors, thus taking your eyes and concentration off the road infront of you......
      Interesting that you now to be distracted by both a kerb side and a front bumper mirror..... I digress.... No I don't, I wish y'all the absolute freedom and enjoyment of the holiday I enjoyed for 30 years. Beware, they are out to get you (or your boss).
      One more question to David , how do the cameras cope with the rain, freezing weather, condensation, general road dirt ? I guess easier to clean but do you still need a shamy on a long stick or do they come with (windscreen like) jet wash?
      Always happy to listen and learn, even though I know everything 🤣🤣🤣👍

      @@Live-life-1 I've not used them but here's how a log truck driver in NZ answered your question after 265,000 km:
      "With this one being so high, I don’t get much in the way of contamination from the wheels. Look at today, raining, yet no spray is reaching the cameras. They’re mint. I would imagine in some jobs with the low cabs you might get a bit. But then cleaning them is as simple as reaching up, and with a tiny flick of the camera, it’s done."
      Also, if your side window is fogged or dirty, or if you pull down the shade, these make no difference.

And no one seemed to know the firm I was looking for, except one old man. He dragged me down to the bottom of his garden and pointed.

    I went Inter-stating the last couple of weeks, so I haven't been on the tube. I stopped one night at Gundagi and it dropped to -7. But it was also +27 in Rockhampton...We don't have night heaters, but we do have stand alone air con units which run separate to the engine.
    Many years ago in Italy a few towns did a stupid thing.... The first block on the street to be sold ( regardless of the location ) was number 1. Next one was 2..3 and so on... So you could get # 35 next to #7. A few year after that, they changed all the numbers back to sequential, Odds down one side of the road and evens on the other. Half the places put up the new numbers and some didn't... Luckily most places put up a sign with their name on it.
    If your ever in any doubt where the new place is, just look for the most inaccessible place with cars abandoned in the worst place, and that'll be it.

    Brilliant vlog Sherralin. I've seen the camera mirrors on other truck users, and personally, I wouldn't be a fan either. Cameras can be a lie, and do not give the correct true distance of anything. No, I prefer mirrors and physically looking behind or to the side of me on blind spots. At least the weather you're having at the moment is the same here in the UK at the moment, at long last🤣. I sometimes can't understand why some of the other truckers I watch don't just get out and ask where a certain place is. Its so much quicker and better on the fuel consumption as well. It doesn't bother me one bit if I need to ask, you'll get to your destination that much sooner
