Episode Five

With an excavator to move 3800km from the Port of Melbourne to Darwin, Jon gives the job to young gun driver Ryan. Despite having recently been married, the 24 year-old takes the move on with gusto, but he quickly opens up about how life on the road can take its toll with loved ones. He reveals he’s hoping to meet up with his dad – also a truck driver – in the Northern Territory but when complications at a weight station leave him grounded it looks like the reunion is off. Back in Brisbane, head driver Dave is moving one of the final pieces of the massive 2,000-ton Tunnel Boring Machine he’s been put in charge of. But when boss Jon turns up to the move unannounced it puts his nose out of joint. A renowned control-freak, can the boss keep the veteran onside by letting him oversee the job and keeping his mouth shut?
