"We knew last season that we would not be able to get the truck through its MOT, so we were already looking at alternatives", says volunteer Jacco Meivogel of the Beatrix transport team. "But with no real budget, we didn't have many options. Winning the cash prize suddenly sped up the process of getting a new truck."
The old truck was from 1992 and the new one was built in 2003. Besides the improved 'looks', the new truck has cruise control, an automatic transmission, halogen lighting and more horsepower. The truck is also more environmentally friendly.
