Canadian trucks are different








Guess what, canadian trucks are different to the ones in uk and i dont just mean the steering wheel is on the other side. I have been driving "lorries" for a fair few years now but this is a completely different ball game. They are slower "around town" and more clumsy, the turning circle is bigger and sometimes it feels like you are trying to navigate a jumbo jet around town (minus the wings obviously).

There is also the small matter of the gear box, in Alberta even if you are going to be driving autos, you still train and take your test in a none-syncromesh, its the law or something.

Anyway here's a couple of pics.
