We catch up with Waz and Michael from Cleave’s Garden Supplies out in Shepperton, VIC. Waz and Michael talk about how the Cascadia 116 Day Cab has been delivering in many areas for the drivers, and the business.
I’m was from Cleves garden supplies Earth moving shepparton a lot of blokes working for us and a lot of equipment the Freightliner boys approached the cleave boys that own the business give the opportunity for this new cascader to come out so we took it yeah they haven’t looked back since
Fuel efficiency we’ve been doing a program on it since we bought it and it’s out doing all the other trucks in our yard at this present time with the driver that we’ve got in it now Michael so he’s doing a really good job this is
The only truck I drive most days we all got our own truck each I’ve jumped in the other trucks and I still prefer to get back into this one there’s a variety of work with the truck we’ve got our own garden supplies so we’re quite busy doing that or Quarry
Rings up yeah karting local or you’re going into State you’re doing quite a variation of work and it’s quite comfortable to sit in nice big one piece windscreen nice big mirrors and big Windows slopey Bonnet you just the visibility is just great it’s all right in the country but when
You’re driving in the city you’ve a blind spot on the passenger side it just it automatically flashes orange when there’s a car coming up or you can’t see nothing you put the indicator on it’s change an alarm and it lights up red so you think I hope someone’s there so you
Just stay where you are till it’s clear to go the automatic is good it just doesn’t get confused it knows what it’s doing you just get to a corner and it’s not thinking about what gear it should be in just drive you want to get out at the end of the
Day and not think you’ve done hours and hours and feel a bit fatigued you want to get out and relax and you feel relaxed in the truck we can do some big hours you know they’re stepping out of the trucks and they’re still pretty good less Drive
Fatigue then you get more out of the drive you just get there in the morning you’ve got to make sure you’ve got the keys hidden and someone hasn’t taken it it’s a pretty good looking truck
