It seems that I've been unjust in my assumption that the Owens truck, spotted on Biglorrryblog making a smart getaway from the Axis Intermodal terminal in Auckland last night (well it was 10:00 in the morning in New Zealand), was coloured pink. It must have been a dodgy setting on the webcam because Rod Simmonds has sent me this picture of three owens trucks at the recent Pukekohe Show 'n' Shine---and they're definitely RED! And a nice line-up too--Foden, MAN and Freightliner.

Meanwhile, click through here for a double tough aussie wrecker from 'Two-Stroke'..or should that be 'Tow-Stroke'?

"More Mack custom jobs from Gary Richards--national product manager for Mack in Australia" TS advises me, adding "'Life is too short' seems to be a comment sentiment from Australia." Well that probably translates into: "So many great trucks, so little time to blog them..."
