I hope you understand where I am coming from. Cheers

Might I suggest a name change to any of the following to prevent such confusion from happening again:

NZ Truck Blog
NZ Truck Photos
Photos of Neville Brothers Trucks
Sexy Neville Bros Trucks
Sexy Trucks NZ
18 i̶n̶c̶h̶e̶s̶ Wheels Fan Club
Neville Brothers Trucks - Please note this isn't an official page, it is a fan page so please call 09 426 5901 to complain to management about their drivers

How do I change my Facebook page name?

https://www.facebook.com/help/271607792873806

That last one might be a bit long on second thought

For the record I'm still calling bullshit on the whole "this isn't actually our company's Facebook page".

The Facebook page only posts about Neville Brother's trucks and the contact phone number on the page is the direct line for Neville Brothers.

Whether you like it or not, in today's age your Facebook page is a representation of your company. People will use it to complain, people will use it to talk about your business for better or worse.

Okay I came on here to ask something simple, I did not come on here shouting the odds and running down motorcycles excuse The pun. Forgive me for enjoying a shiny truck and remember I did not put you down for enjoying a shiny Motorbike. Obviously there are a number of members on this page who wish to only see things from one side and have made my visit to this page so desirable I just can't wait to return. Just a couple of things before I go and leave you all in peace,
Firstly I am just a driver!!!
Secondly I don't drive Mitsubishi trucks as pictured so I can't be driving the truck in these pictures
Thirdly unlike some of you I give a shit about what my children and my grandchildren read and I'm comfortable knowing in my own mind they will grow up to be respectful and normal unlike some people I have recently dealt with
Finally someone suggested I give my boss is the contact details for the motorbike rider that originally posted this, well guess what I don't know him or her from a bar of soap I have no name and I have no number so I guess that bright idea won't happen.
You all enjoy your lives however short they maybe, and I'll just keep on truckin 🚚

Hey KBers, Roland came on here to politely ask us not to post complaints and use bad language on his private FB page, and he's been very civil in his request. Lets treat him with the respect that he's displayed towards our site, huh?

And OP, if you've got a complaint about that truck driver then get in touch with Neville Bros management, their phone number is available, pick up the phone and have a chat.

I find truck drivers are universally considerate, if I'm filtering they most often ease away from the gap to make more room for me (and that's not always easy for them to do with 18 plus wheels) and I always try to give them a 'thank you' wave once I've passed. I guess that a number of truckies are motorbike riders too. I admire the skills that truck drivers have, I have to think about every movement of the steeering wheel when backing a trailer behind my car, and they move those rigs (sometimes with the equivalent of up to 32 wheels and with a steerable trailer dolly) like they're Dinky toys.

Have a good day Roland, cheers, and I'll wave to all those Neville Bros trucks when I see them just in case you're behind the wheel of one.

Definitely common in my lane-splitting adventures on the motorway and it's always those same type of trucks (maybe that look attracts a certain kind of kunt? driver) the same truck with the extra trailer tend to be great drivers (but I guess thats a step above in licensing)

He did plenty of hypocritical 'SHOUTING' & a major whining/whinge act too though, to be fair..

Had to be a "smart cunt" * taking the bloody piss..

* Ref: 'Bad Boy Bubby' movie, & classic... "I can't stand smart cunts!" - catch phrase..

This is fun to read...

but then it started to turn into a catfight talk going back and forth which I thought the other better half normally do... LOL

Any way boys we are all here to have a laugh or two and enjoy big toys or small toys. and of course give opinions whats life without opinons

of course going to the extend to subscribe and police ones language is a bit off.

Another point I would like to make if you want to complain or raise attention about an issue (good manners will take you a long distance) if you ride like you talk then I expect a short ride for you. as every force or action has a reaction and do not expect anything less unless your force is nothing compared to the brick wall your talking too (just made that up

)

this teaches them about a) not being a cunt in public where your behavior affects others and b) expressing your feelings and c) non-verbal communication with others.

You seriously believe that a cunt driver of any vehicle, would give a toss about what a fag in a shitty pedo-wagon.... thinks about his/her driving?

**5ive** · 18th November 2016, 14:35

I don't want to ruffle any feathers here, but I also have my HT licenses, and Track endorsement, because I used to also drive trucks, and heavy, tracked vehicles.

So no truck, or truck driver hate is coming from me

Have a good weekend all, I'm off to enjoy this weather.

Yeah, I read it all. I think Roland came on and made a polite request for us not to post complaints on his private FB page. And he stated that he didn't like the language used and had deleted it. Sure he got frustrated, because he explained a couple of times that it was a private FB page on which he posted images of the trucks he drove and not an official Neville Bros site, and yet people continued to argue with him about his site.

Some here couldn't or wouldn't understand that his was a private page, sure he posted pictures of the Neville Bros trucks on it but it was never an official Neville Bros site. I think we owe Roland an apology.
