About the experience
In America, everything - driving included - is supersized, and this is especially true of their trucks, as your young driver will discover when you book for them to attend our excellent Young American Truck Driving Taster day at one of 8 locations UK wide.. Their day will begin with a welcome and safety briefing from an expert instructor. Then it’s time for them to climb into the cabin for one driving lap in a Ford F650 Pick Up truck. Here, your junior trucker will be driving and manoeuvring the fully automatic, truck chassis-based truck around a short course 10 minutes behind the wheel. There’s also the option to purchase additional laps on the day, which are fantastic as these give you an entirely different perspective of the track. This really is the ideal experience for any young truck enthusiasts aged 15 and up, or anyone looking for something to drive that’s more super-truck than supercar!
