On May 28, 2009 you may have noticed that the Forum was in maintenance mode for quite a while. Well it is a long story. But I won't bore you with all the details. The short of it is that I needed to apply an upgrade to the Forum software and there was a bug in the process. After trying many different methods to get it to work, I gave up and put the Forum back online.

Then today (May 29, 2009), I did some more research and found a workaround for the "bug". Now the Forum if properly upgraded and things appear to be okay again.

Thank you for your patience.

Hi, My name is Alex and I am another truck photographer from New Zealand. I live in Timaru and take lots of truck picture when I'm out looking at what is in the local area and when I'm on trips around New Zealnd. Other hobbies of mine include taking photos of race cars, helping at the car racing and building truck models. I have an interest in trucks in Australia, American, Europe and the UK. I have a personal preference for Macks and Kenworths. I also like old trucks and go on classic truck runs around New Zealand.

New Zealand is split up in to 3 islands. GrantNZ live in the North Island and I live in the South Island. There are no trucks on Stewart Island.

Hello Alex,

First of all, also to you a very warm welcome to this Forum!!!!!
I guess I will "speak" for all others by telling you that we all are very glad to have a new "young" member from "down-under" and specialy from NZ!!!!!
I am already looking forward to your pictures!!!!!
Like I also told to "GrantNZ", I have "ton's" of pictures out of Europe (only "analog" but working "hard" to make them "digital") and If you like to "have" some, just ask!!!!!
Also Jan (Norseman) from Norway, John (Actros) from the UK and many "US/Canadian" friends would love to "share" pictures with you!!!!!
For now, take care of yourself, safe trips anytimes and "Keep on Trucking"!!!!!
Greetings from Emmerich am Rhein, Germany,

The DAFman, Leo

Hi Grant,  Let me say welcome from the west coast of Canada, Had the good fortune to know one of your countrymen  Guy Spurr. Knew him for some years and it was a tragic loss for all down your way when he passed away. He was known all over the world form South Africa to North America. You also have some of the BEST TRUCKING MAGAZINES to be found anywhere in the world. There is nothing in Canada or USA that even comes close. Guy was always sending in stories and photos  So now there is a void that you can step into   GOOD LUCK   Steve
