    recent earthquake did some damage on my house, roof tiles are slightly moved despite they are made of concrete (10lbs per piece), and water pipes in toilet leaks.....this means new toilet would be needed, around 5000€ investment

    Shorter working hours, no access to workshop itself.

    But generally everything is working.

    My local Daf dealer is by appointement only,except for breakdowns.
    Shop works under closed system,meaning only mechanics allowed inside.

    If it dies I will celebrate. There should be a special section in TTR for threads like this that crowd out worthy threads from the first page. There are quite a few of them. I don’t care about Millis or if it snows either. Y’all should just open your own chat room.

    Don’t need to. If they were any good Americans would be driving them and companies would order them. We don’t have cramped cities that were built when the black death was a thing. That’s why we have huge trucks and trailers and don’t need to drive tiny toy euro trucks, basically glorified F250s.
