Ok well the truck my dad drives is in my sig, i've driven it on the occasion mostly in the yard or backing up to the docks or other trailers. I've done a little road driving, but not that often coz i'm only 15 so the boys in blue would have a fit. I'm just as good as the next bloke.
Anyways it's a Kenworth K104b, purchased brand new. Dad has driven it since it was new in 07, and since then has done i think over 750 000km's runnin Melbourne Brisbane. If i can get any more pics i will upload em and post em here

If your old man has done 750,000km's in 2 years he must NEVER stop..
My dad's Volvo (in my sig) has done 1.2 million k's in almost 6 years and it barelly stops. Thats on around 4,000 km's a week without any days off. So minus the weekends, Breakdown time, holidays etc (which works out between 5000-5500km's) it's pretty hard to clock 750,000 in 2 years.
And he runs anywhere in Australia. Been to all Major cities.

Melbourne - Brisbane every day of the week, every day of the year. When dad arrives back home, another guy gets in and drives to melbourne and back. So when dad takes time off, the melbourne guy just takes it all the way to brisbane. And when it needs to be serviced, it gets sent off to coffs harbour, so the k's click over pretty quick. You are half right though, the truck never stops, but dad stops alkl the time. Not as bad as it was back in the day when he used to work for Finemores, he'd be gone for a week straight.
