Here's a video I made to give you an impression of what's it like to drive the old truck.
Great video -- well done! Thanks for sharing the views from your neighborhood over there on the other side of the pond.

that was an awesome video! One thing I'm sorely disappointed in though, the driver's accent is weak as heck. Almost unnoticable.
I expected the Sweedish Chef and got Stellan Skarsgård!

Hahaha that's funny! I've always had a fascination with rural American culture and lifestyle and have spent a lot of time interacting with Americans. Did my best to lose my accent as much as possible and spending 6 months in the US definitely helped. I try to dress appropriately too with the boots and the Wranglers and snap pearls.

Glad you liked it! Louis van Gaal is notorious for his English.
