The Truckers Forum Needs A Photo Of Your Truck!

A set of doubles, nice. Where are you located Donk?

That's an Iveco. Italian made. Probably Europe somewhere.

 

[Donk]

It is indeed an Iveco, but your location guess is Quite far from the mark

Down Under is my location.

not the flashest of gear out there, but its mine.

Damn it. And I was wondering what "trapped on a prison island" meant. That one went right over my head.

Lunchtime in Eastern Montana. A commercial pizza oven and three rock crusher bases.

A new trailer (on an old one) and aircraft tooling for Boeing.

Lunchtime in the Siskyous. My very first load. Flight test ground support equipment headed to Edwards Air Force Base.

Lunchtime in the Siskyous again, different trip. Future airplane parts. Titanium and aluminum.

Lunchtime up on Cabbage. Ground support equipment and future airplane parts.

At the Wyoming state line on US-212. Dirty, dirty, dirty. Commercial window glass, rock crusher bases, and another pizza oven. I like the Quick Draw trailers (connestogas), but the ice buildup makes it difficult to open them.

I already miss flatbed trucking, lol! Dammit Racer! Nice pics though.

Surely you know that Australia originated as a penal colony for the British Empire.

Why thank you Mr. Q!

(I am secretly still trying to get you to come work at SPD!)

Who says I am parked? And even if I am, well I just take my half out of the middle!

Well, ... if you climbed up on something with a camera to take a picture of your truck, I'd assume (hope) the truck was parked. At least the yellow knob.

I was almost expecting you to say that you were parked perfectly straight but it was the people who painted the lines wrong. I've used that excuse before.

Racer, were there more photos than just the one?

Well, none of the guys in the other trucks complained.

You can do that yourself. When you are looking at the pictures in your album, just to the lower right of the picture are two boxes, one is labeled "Picture URL", the other is "BB Code". In the one labeled BB Code is some code. Copy all of the code and paste it into a post here. That will make the picture show up in your post.

The code you want begins with "

" (without the quotation marks).

I can't do that for you because when I look at your album those boxes do not appear for me.

Here is one from one of my albums:

Racer, you can post them the same way you post any other pic. With Firefox you just right-click on it and click "Copy Image Location" then type the "

" stuff after you paste it.

Shhh!!

I know that, but I would rather people do things themselves, and the easiest way for Dayripper is how I explained it. I've tried before to encourage people to use the image tags and the url, but they either are not interested, or just don't get it.

I found a complete list of BB code for forum usage the other day. Now I can't find it.

Problem is, lots of that code, you can't type it and have it show up in your post, because it's code to tell the page what to display and the code is hidden.

I made a tutorial for posting YouTube videos the other day. Maybe I can screen-shot the code and save it as tiny little image files like I did with this:

which I used as part of that video tutorial, and make one for posting non-thumbnail images and stuff. But I just can't seem to get over the laziness right now. Especially since the tutorial would just end up getting lost among all the other ancient threads and somebody needing that info wouldn't know where to look. You'd be surprised how many people don't know what the search box is for too.

See?

You too!
