Keep On Moving

The intellectual might of New Zealand Trucking Media brings all they have to the table in a post workday chat at their local. Sometimes they convince some poor unfortunate soul to join them. The result is more often than not ….. concerning.

This month we're joined by David Tanner from McCall Creek Mississippi with his take on the US Presidential elections, and Finance HQ's local rep Adrian Hunt who was heading home on a Friday 'arvo' and thought he'd pop in, only to find himself thrust in front of a microphone. What a great sport! 

This month on the Vocational Podcast ...

If you're looking for an entertaining, frank, funny, no-holds-barred yarn with one of the great industry characters of the modern era, you'll do no better than Robert Pascoe, founder of RPC Logistics. Starting his own metro trucking business in the highly competitive scene that was early 80s Auckland, he had all the key components required to make a go of it – smarts, savvy, a huge work ethic, and several hundred-weight of cheek. Strap in – here we go as he recounts a wonderful adventure in business as only he could. 

We catch-up with our new Euro regular in Sweden, log truck driver Mattias Vikberg. It's been a muddy autumn in the forest, there's a new configuration, thankfully no wild animals, and he's about to join a Scania Roadshow for a couple of weeks demonstrating alternatively propelled heavy trucks. It's all go in Mattias's world!

Lager than life Yogi Kendall – the one-man trucking industry cheer leader – joins us for a catch-up on everything from electronic work diaries and carting farm machines interstate, to making Lamingtons.  

We talk to Wheels at Wanaka 2025 organising team member Annabel Roy for the first of a regular catch-up between now and the big event at Easter next year.

We compress the show into one interview with International Truck of the Year jury members Charleen Clarke and Will Shiers. They chat to Dave McCoid about last months IAA Transportation show in Hanover, reporting back on what they saw, what is emerging, and what they think trucking in tomorrow's world might be like.

This Edition – Ray and Fiona Reid are one of the most infectiously fun and funny couples you'll meet and proof that incredibly hard work is a nursery for great character. A third-generation transport operator, Ray, with his grandfather, father, and uncle, ran one of the most identifiable line-haul trucking brands through the halcyon days of pre- and post-deregualtion trucking in New Zealand – Reids' of Rangiotu.

This is one that will have you laughing, and enjoying the best walk down memory lane.

Plus, Dave has the Whats On in the industry leading up to Christmas.

This month on the KOM Podcast Business Edition, brought to you by UDC.

Murray Lindsay has the latest truck news.

There's a whole new world heading our way, and whether we like it or not, we need to find out more about it so we're ready. Powering On talks to people in the know and those who have already headed off on a new propulsion journey. We aim to make it not too techy, delivering useful information for those who will still be responsible for delivering our new tomorrow.
This month we chat with Mark Irving from Mt Maunganui based Heavy Vehicle Machinery Solutions (HVMS) about what they're gearing up for in the conversion space. It's a classic Kiwi take-the-bull-by-the-horns innovation story.

On Schedule - New Zealand Trucking Media editorial director Dave McCoid speaks with the National Road Carriers (NRC) senior team on the work the association does – the wins, the challenges, and the strategies taken on key issues of the day.
This month, Dave McCoid joins National Road Carriers general manager of policy and advocacy James Smith in a discussion debunking the myth an adversarial relationship exists between the different transport modes at work in our country. The truth is we're in this gargantuan task together, and each mode is hugely dependant on the others to play their critical part.

Cameron Bagrie updates with his regular look at the economy.

Clear the Air is the section where co-host Dave McCoid and his good mate and Environmental champion Lindsay Wood discuss the climate and environmental issues of the day, as they should be discussed – respectfully!

This month we're joined by Maddy McCoid, host of Chick Chat and sales specialist at New Zealand Trucking magazine.

It's a truly wonderful Kiwi road transport story and a lesson in so much – understanding your business and the market in which you operate, never over reaching, business as part of the community, and loving what you do. In 1975 Merv Pryce and his mate Malcolm Savage purchased the business of Maurice Vickers Transport in Stratford. It marked the beginning of a five decade adventure that hasn't quite ended yet. We sat down and chatted with Merv and former employee, contractor, and good mate Graeme Forbes. It was an absolute treat on a lovely afternoon in the shadow of Mt Taranaki. Burn all your textbooks, this is a tale of business done well by a true practitioner.

In 2015, Dave Carr organised the inaugural Magpie's Truck Run in the South Island. Tragically, this well respected good bloke passed away shortly after. His good mates, Dave Ching and Cam Lill took up the banner and kept the event going, renaming it the Dave Carr Memorial Truck Run. Built on a spirit of camaraderie, good company, and a love of the industry, this year will see it's ninth running, and it's now a major event on the national trucking event calendar.

You could be with him at the Rover's Return having a beer ... It's always a hell of a laugh catching up with our good mate and Commercial Motor magazine editor Will Shiers to see what's going on in Blighty and the Euro zone. 

Our new Euro regular is Swedish log truck driver Mattias Vikberg. Our first podcast chat will introduce Mattias to us all. He's been a reader of New Zealand Trucking magazine since 2018 and listens to the podcasts. Why not make him part of the crew?!
