What We Drive

Our Trucks

"Take a look at what you could be driving soon..."

At AHVDT, we emphasize the significance of our trucks. While our vehicle selection may not be the newest on the roads, it is designed to suit the realistic work conditions you are likely to encounter. We avoid overwhelming our trucks with unnecessary driver aids, ensuring that you don't develop a false sense of security during your learning process. At AHVDT, our primary focus is on imparting safe truck operation skills. We are proud of our fully modern fleet, which includes five vehicles and a variety of trailers that allow for numerous combinations. With this diverse range of vehicles at our disposal, there's a suitable truck for everyone undergoing training with us. Each vehicle is considered a part of the AHVDT family, featuring full air conditioning.

Trainers will guide students to effectively and safely maneuver Smurf, making the learning experience both enjoyable and practical, and earning him the affectionate nickname, Smoking Smurf.
