If they'd finished wrapping it they'd have been none the wiser
To be honest I think I passed you in Horeb and I didn't even see it. Bloody local press bothering people getting on with their work

I do believe your drawbar weight may be a tadge over lol
But that does mean it will not push the rear off the tractor round at corners
Had that with out tri axle and not a four like yours
Right,
I've managed to work out how to post pictures ,so I will try and load some from my NH demo team days.
At the San Mateo plant in Modena, waiting for the off.
Loaded in Germany, about to set off for the UK.
Supporting the Spanish market doing a national working demo tour, taken just outside Seville. The trailer is an exhibition caravan with two opening pods to give offices, a kitchen and a big open room for hospitality, films etc.

Nothing wrong with that
Trying to decide if I would have put it in the middle, probably not
Here are a few more.
I and a colleague also did a tour of Greece.
This was a typical Greek dealer open day, hot and dusty, all the stray dogs came out to look at us and the local neer do wells.
We also took the two trucks on the ferry to Crete, this is on the quayside at Piraeus,
This is inside the ferry, sadly it didn't come out very well.
We did quite a bit of island hopping, so went on quite a few ferries, this was quite typical.
Most were a lot smaller, I struggled to get the low loader on one ferry, I was later told by a crew member that it started life as a landing craft for the Normandy landings!
Hope you like them, I will post some more as and when I can find them.

What Model was the Turbostar? The older Iveco?
Yes, you are right its a Turbo Star.
As New Holland and Iveco are part of the Fiat group, that meant that we had the Iveco trucks.
My truck was the newer Euro Tech, that pulled the low loader,, a 440-42, 6x2 on a R reg, with a mid lift, It would pull very well, but the limiter was set a bit aggressively so it was a bit slow.
My colleague drove the other truck that pulled the caravan, a 4x2, Turbo Star 190-36, this was quite a bit faster.
They both had the Eaton twin splitter gear box, not everyone's cup of tea, but I got to like it.
Some good memories looking at those photos.

Another day in "lockdown" with the rugrats, walked down to the main road with them for some truck spotting.
Roads are very quiet, mostly trucks hauling farming products.
Plenty of spud trucks.
Not the best pictures need a new phone I think.
The odd oldie still doing it
