Euro Truck Driver - Amsterdam - Frankfurt trip report

[ZeroSight]

Hi, My name Frank and i'm a trucker. I thought i'd share with you my first day on the job and tell you about my trip from Amsterdam to Frankfurt.

Here is my truck. I bought her Today brand new from the dealership. It has more Torque than the wife!

Time to get ready to drive out this place. I had a heavy night last night in the brothels and coffee shops so I hope I don't scratch her

OK, Trailer of toys attached and ready to go.

Bye ,Bye Amsterdam and bye bye to the prostitute that ripped me off last night. She said she had the full package but she turned out to be a 3 foot high dwarf in stockings and suspenders. I guess all part of life on the open road as a trucker!

Onto the moorway we go...

This is my friend Charlie. Many hours on the road means you get very lonely so Charlie was born in my head to keep me sane................He's not very chatty Today though.

Doesn't look like I have any immigrants hanging on the back.

Autobahn's AHOY!

I hate going uphill, I may have to get Charlie to push.

This idiot decided to slam his brakes on and then proceeded to cut me up. I gave him a blast of the horn but he gave me the finger so what did I do?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/Hicko/ets_00013.png

I overtook him and blocked both lanes. LOL!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/Hicko/ets_00015.png

Mmmmmm Prague. The women are amazing there and I think I could do better than a 3 foot dwarf. BUT.....I have a job to do. Prague will be for another day.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/Hicko/ets_00016.png

I'm here in Frankfurt. Now time to find the depot.

Mirror, Signal and manouvre.

Here's the Depot on the right. Time to drive into the yard.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/Hicko/ets_00019.png

Reversing is easy for a trucker like me. All you car noobs would PHAIL!!111!!

Time to sample some German beers and rest for my next journey :063:

PS, God i'm sad lol :lol1:

Hello Frank, I am happy to share my trucking experience with you. I am Joe, and I just got my license to transport fuel and all that.

Here I am, in Frankfurt, just accepted my first contract going to Munich. A small trip, but worth it.

It was quite busy on the road for this time of night.

It seems I am driving the right way, just one last turn to go.
http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/7252/94387092ez2.jpg

There was only a small traffic jam in Munich, but I got to the depot safely and made my cash.

My next assignment was to bring Petrol to Brussels, I will share it with you all later.

So there it is fellow Euro Trucka's see you on the highway.

Hello Bob and Frank. Well, you've guessed it, it's time for another trip report, this time from good ol' Amsterdam all the way to Munich. I can tell you now, it was a trip to be remembered.

So here I am, in Amsterdam. I just got my job to transport some Diesel to Munich. My trailer has just been attached and I am ready to go. Well, as ready as can be I suppose, since the excessive amount of weed from last night still seems to have some effect on me.
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/2253/58813638fe9.jpg

Goodbye for now, Amsterdam. I will not forget you and your pleasures and I will definitely be back for more. Hell yeah!
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/7103/79063344pv6.jpg

There it is, Germany. The Autobahn, time to do some real serious trucking!
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/8851/36360142zm6.jpg

You can say what you want about Germany, but it doesn't look that bad. Also, when there's only so little traffic on the Autobahn, it's time to put the pedal to the metal!
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/4655/38698557as2.jpg

All that hardcore trucking on the autobahn does make even the most hardcore trucker tired, so I here I am, going for some refueling and some rest. Hopefully, the effect from the Amsterdam drugs will be entirely gone after a good sleep.
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/1150/14190800cx1.jpg
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/1564/39635496sw4.jpg

There we go. A good rest works wonders, although that weed (STILL) does as well. I can still feel its mellow effect all over me. Good times!
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5190/79883694rs1.jpg

The first roadsign with my destination. "I can't go wrong here anymore." I thought.
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/4528/83274846dz6.jpg

A few minutes later, I met a fellow trucker called Bill as he entered the motorway. I had a good chat with him for a good amount of kilometers. He was headed to Bern. When I told him I was going to Munich, he said that I just missed my turn and that I am now on the road towards the Swiss border.
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2509/10nt2.jpg

I decided to take a look at my map, and yes, Bill was right. That red cross is the Swiss border and since I am not allowed to go into Switzerland with my precious cargo....
It seemed Amsterdam still had its effect on me, but this time, I did not feel so mellow at all. Such an error is inexcusable!
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/3161/11zn2.jpg

And there it is, the Swiss border. Customs wouldn't let me through with my cargo, no matter how much I tried to throw my charm at them. This meant I had to turn around at the border. Oh well, so be it. This can happen to the best out there.
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/629/12pf4.jpg

This time, I am back on track. All this malarky was exhausting me, so after a rest stop, I was ready to truck this beast straight to the end!
http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/7254/15fd6.jpg

And here is one of the last exits towards Munich.
http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/2927/16sd3.jpg

FINALLY! A load fell from my shoulders as I was relieved to finally enter Munich. I would soon also dump my trailer at the depot.
http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/9231/17sq4.jpg

In the end, it all ends well. So here I am, in Munich. It was a hell of a hardcore trucking trip, but it was really worth it. I would really like to thank Bill to alert me when it was needed. As well as the Amsterdam specialty for having its effect on me. Even though all this happened, I will still be back for more stuff in Amsterdam.

Yawn.
