  1. Some imaginary story, a travel in time,  to complete the whole pic

    Sundsvall, 1977?

    "My Dad's beloved Scania 111 fuel tanker. This picture has a special place in my heart. I remember myself being 10 years old when dad was taking me with him when he had to travel short distances, so i'll start learning his job in order to follow his path into trucking. It was something that i didn't like at first, finding it boring, but over the years and following him at some trips, i started enjoying the whole thing. One day, i took that picture at some station we used to provide fuel, at Sundsvall. Dad liked this picture so much, that had it in the bedroom but also kept a smaller copy of it inside the truck, next to the speedometer. Until my 20, i was following dad. But then he said "time to start your own thing kid”. I moved on and got my license. Then dad heard about some company that was looking for a driver. I went there and grabbed the chance. And guess what. I was a fuel tanker driver, just like my dad! I was driving a Mercedes, but was always talking about dad's Scania. Years later, at 1994, i had offer to work for some international transport company, that i couldn't miss. Such a huge opportunity to step a level above. After discussion with dad and of course his help, i got my own truck, a Scania 144 with 460hp V8 engine. Dad was so glad for me that roles had changed. He was the one coming with me at the trips aboard sometimes! Until he couldn't because of health issues. When at 2008, he passed away. I keep this picture until today, on his 111, just at the spot that he had it always. Right next to the speedometer. Watching at it when i go to start the 111 up, thinkin about all the memories, all the advice that he gave me and how much love he had about this job. I'm so proud i followed his path. And i really hope my kids will do so too..."
