Default Pics of what you drive - past and present

After seeing Gremmie's post, thought it would be good to see what you drive, or have driven in the past - from any country.

I'll put a couple on, but will have to find some more

Is that first pic an OSH KOSH? have always wanted to drive one of those (nearest I have got to that was a Scammell Crusader ex MOD recovery, was a lot smaller than the truck in your pic though!)

I had a Mercedes 2534 with EPS box - it was gutless compared to the FH12 that replaced it, and the cab was tiny in comparison. But never let me down, and I have good memories with that truck. it's now pulling two trailers behind each other across Africa!
