Drool, drool! Ohh well...might as well give up right now.. and did you see the way he reversed tank transporter? I bet a lot of truckers, caravanners, and others pulling trailers couldn't manage that. Still, it gives you something to aspire to... and a massive overdraft.
A question:is there an articulated tank transporter form of penis envy?

Dear Lord how much does one of those cost?!
All that work and the tanks don't run scale speeds?

Re: Must see 1:7
43,
It is called a "Double Bottom" An Articulated tractor/trailer pulling another trailer"
I think in the United States they are called "Pup trailers".
I have driven Draw Bar trailers in the past and whenever I had the choice I would PUSH the trailer into position off the front bumper rather than back them up,(two steering axles in tandem)
Reversing an Artic is a doddle in comparison,
The point about Tank Transporters that does not get made very often is that a lot of the reversing is done off road, at night, and between tree's, that is when the driver earns his money.

Re: Must see 1:7
..And I thought a ''double bottom'' is what a cosmetic surgeon provides you with, if you're the wife of Kanye West....
Most I've ever managed is reversing a muck-spreader (by function, not by nature!) through a gate, in broad daylight, with an old David-Brown tractor (type used by the RAF in WW2 to tow planes). The bods in logistics, transport command, and so on, have my complete and unreserved admiration.
