Shaun “Bushy” Holland reckons that after 19 years in
trucking he can justify having something rather
special for his five a fortnight runs between Melbourne and Adelaide
and with his new Eagle 9900 he has hit the jackpot.
With its steel grey metallic paintwork, 51 inch sleeper, stainless steel
and LED marker lights galore, Bushy’s Eagle stands out on the road
as a great example of how to combine looking fantastic with a high
degree of style.
“I like the Melbourne/Adelaide run as there’s no pressure,” said
Shaun. “You can do the job properly with schedules that work easily
for both the driver and the customer and be home every second night,”
he added.
Like so many drivers, trucking is in the family blood line with Shaun’s
father having been on the road behind the wheel of a 1982 MAN. But
in Shaun’s case the lure of an American conventional proved too great
an attraction and a trip to Melbourne International Truck Centre (MITC)
soon resulted in a very special Eagle coming down the Dandenong
assembly line, just up the road from the dealership.
