Re: Combo vans too low
Being 6 ft 2" they are an absolute pain
During this horrendous spell off parcels and getting in and out of the van a rediculous amount of times each day it has caused me to have a shooting pain go down my leg to my knee and bloody painful

Re: Combo vans too low
I really struggle with them. The handful we have here are from the workshop and are very unreliable. I’ll never understand why they assign these vans to people on rural covering 50 miles, having to get in and out 250 times a day, instead of rounds closer to the office covering 5 miles ‘only’ in and out 50 times.
The day is gonna come when we’re all gonna have to testify.

50 times? Got to be more than that for most surely, particularly now.HTPostman wrote: ↑19 Dec 2021, 12:13I really struggle with them.

Not allowed poke with Trimble's lolgreengiant wrote: ↑18 Dec 2021, 16:40At least the old combos had a bit of poke about them, compared with the asthmatic bippers.
