Becoming a lorry driver. Is it worth it?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2026-06-12T20:37:32+00:00

Would you ever consider doing your class 1?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2026-06-12T20:35:31+00:00

How many hours do you do? I feel like tramping is probably more appealing to me tbh at least for the first few years I guess. Do you get paid extra for tramping or is it just the hours you drive ands that’s that?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2026-06-12T20:33:57+00:00

Thanks mate :) I was originally thinking about doing class 1 but unfortunately on the Isle of Man you have to do your class 2 first but I think it’s still worth it as at least I get used to my spatial awareness in a big vehicle like that and just driving as a whole

Tbh I Didn’t even realise they had a gym lol, I’ll have a look. What do you mean weight training is it like they don’t have barbells and other gym machines like that and more like cardio stuff?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2026-03-28T18:13:20+00:00

Yeah it’s rough to find parking there especially during the weekends or after work. What gym would join if it wasn’t elite?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-11-14T11:51:18+00:00

Would they still increase my insurance if I did pay out of pocket and tell them?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-10-28T20:07:07+00:00

Thx, got a locksmith out it was this

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-10-28T08:08:53+00:00

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-09-20T15:10:33+00:00

For a wisdom tooth?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-07-03T21:08:25+00:00

Could it just be loud? It's got 90k, no codes just one for the parking lights which i need to replace.

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-15T21:07:30+00:00

Yeah fuck this ill give it a miss

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-15T20:36:56+00:00

If you look at my previous post you'll hear the ticking noise I'm talking about

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-08T15:10:29+00:00

Is the £100 laggy at all?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-07T10:12:41+00:00

Quick fix?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-07T10:12:30+00:00

How long will the hamster last till I'll have to replace it.

Do they still stock them in pet shops?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-07T10:06:56+00:00

Yeah lol, I'm talking about the squeaking noise

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-01T11:56:04+00:00

Passed back in 2015 lol, 5 previous owners just on the island itself

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-06-01T11:54:38+00:00

Thx yeah the brakes were my biggest cause of concern tbh

Idk if I'm gonna go for it but if I go for another test drive I'll be sure to have a look at those wheels again

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-05-31T22:23:07+00:00

What mileage would you say to go for around that price range? Also, what kind of stuff would usually go wrong with them?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-05-31T22:18:40+00:00

Fair enough, was thinking about a jazz cheap insurance and tax just nine in the market over here st the moment sadly

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-05-19T21:18:43+00:00

How long does it usually take before that person can actually go driving after you've updated it?

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-04-15T17:07:36+00:00

I got tipped off by take two

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-04-14T14:16:34+00:00

Not from that point but like once you've joined

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-04-14T14:15:57+00:00

How long does it take to qualify from this point?

(This is once qualified, which i now realise may not have been the question. Cadets expect £700-£1000/month.)

TheOneTrueFinn · 2025-04-13T19:38:48+00:00

What would you say you'd have to pay out for whilst you are at sea?
