    I set up in February and bought my first 18t brick grab and converted it into a BT poling lorry… I’ve had so many people I know hate on me but nearly a year on and they’re out of my life and I’m doing ok… once you work for yourself you’ll never look back… I honestly wish you all the luck in the world bro 👍🏻

      I think some people think all you need to do is buy a truck and the money will start rolling in. I hate to say it but I think they are more concerned about promoting their CZcams channels than actually running a business. I know because I don't have time to make videos, even when I'm not driving I'm still working for the business.
      Good luck to him for giving it a go, hope he knows how hard it is !

      Here in NZ we have them running 24/7. One driver drives the day shift then another drives through the night. I'm from Wellington and have a driver who leaves Wellington at 7pm. Drives to the middle of the North island swaps trailers and delivers it back to the depot. Then I drive during the day. Money is rolling in.

    The reason it’s so cheap is because it’s a 520 literally terrible resale on them very underpowered and drinks a lot of fuel not just that they were common for water, leaks and liners going most of the Irish lads won’t touch them that’s why you will give 5-10k more for a 560,580,620
