Western Australia has most of the action with over 200 mines in gold, uranium, nickel, and iron Ore being the main minerals being harvested. With mining companies continuously opening new mines within their lease and also finding new land for exploration especially with iron ore and gold at record prices due to china there is no slowing down during this mining boom in any near future.

One popular occupation wanted by many wanting to get a job in the mining industry in Australia is driving the big dump trucks. It’s a job in high demand especially from the media lately showing people making over 100,000 dollars a year and only working 2 thirds of the year. It’s also in demand by a lot of people as the job itself is less physically demanding than others mining jobs. You are also out of the harsh weather that the western Australian outback provides especially its hot summers which it can reach up to 55 degrees during the hottest of days. There are many different types of rosters, dump trucks operators are on, it really depends on the company itself. 9 days on and 5 days off is becoming a popular roster among workers especially people that Fly in and Fly out from Perth and want to keep a healthy relationship with their other half in Perth. 2,3, or even 4 weeks can also be available which you will be working 13 days in a row and 12 hours days.

There is a myth that mining companies prefer women because they are gentler on the dump trucks than males. Scientifically they cope better with menial/ repetitive work than males which are more likely to fall asleep at the wheel, which is a mining company’s worst night mare. There is a shortage of rubber in the world today and a dump truck tire contains a lot of rubber. The companies monitor how many days they get out of each tire and if it appears that a specific driver is working the truck to hard and wearing out the tires quicker it won’t be long before they are told to slow down on acceleration.

Most the dump truck driving jobs are advertised in the newspaper in the mining section. More and more of the jobs are advertised on the company’s website itself. There is also traineeships available for people interested in obtaining a dump truck driving jobs in the mines in Australia. Some dump truck jobs are contracted out to specialize mining agencies.

Some mining companies have told me that dump truck companies like people who have driven buses in their home city. I can see the potential of this experience as being suitable for a dump truck driver. A bus driver has to constantly be aware of its environment in and outside his/her vehicle. The driver has small kids running around outside and has to be proactive in their driving manner. This experience shows the mining company the individual is safety focused (if they have a good record!) If not driving buses, I recommend start getting experience now driving in a quarry in a production environment. This is going on that I have seen job adverts asking for people with experience driving trucks apply for dump truck driving positions.

Another car geared up to zoom from this stable is Volkswagen Phaeton, whose sedan version is distinctly priced between Rs 75-78 lakhs. With the recent launch of Ford’s first-class hatchback ‘Ford Figo’, the company got all the glare of publicity as the car was welcomed with open arms. Ford Figo that is priced in the bracket of 3.5 to 5 lakhs started rolling on Indian roads from March 2010 and has been deemed one of the best selling Latest Cars in 2010.

Skoda Yeti, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, Tata Aria, Tata Indica Vista Electric, Tata Prima, Toyota Etios, and Nissan Micra are among the other latest cars in 2010 that has turned out to be the choicest cars in the Indian car market.

During the vintage period, electric self starters were introduced on automobiles to do away with the hand cranks that were very dangerous. From the use of kerosene lanterns that were used to light when one was driving in the night or whenever there was an unclear vision of the road ,electric lighting was incorporated on the automobiles to provide better and clear illumination during night driving situations. The vintage cars became more stylish with their enclosed bodies which add adjustable windows that could be lowered or raised if one wanted to. The enclosed bodies also came in handy when there rose a need block off elements from the people within the car.

The vintage automobiles were at this time becoming cheaper and many people could afford them. Moreover its new features made it become more durable. Automobile manufacturers like Chrysler, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, Dodge, Plymouth, Ford, Studebaker and Buick were now able to produce vintage cars in mass assemble lines making it easier for people to travel easily and cheaply. The building of car components also began at this time bringing a rise in sustainability and growth in the automotive industry. The engines of the vintage cars were characterized either by steam or electrical powering to facilitate its mobility. However this situation was gradually overtaken by the combustion engines which were internally placed on the cars. These configurations of engines made the cars faster than the steam or electrical powered vintage cars and they included v-8’s, v-12, v-8’s, and v-16’s.

The latest versions of the vintage cars became more comfortable, practical and comfortable. It included more luxurious features such as the car radio and an in–built car heating system. In addition the antifreeze feature was introduced in the vintage cars to give room to the cars that were water cooled to be used throughout the year. Another characteristic of the vintage cars then was the four wheel braking and brakes that were actuated to replace the foot pedal feature . This made driving become easier. The cars also had a power steered system and later on there was the introduction of fuel octane rating which not only made it possible for the cars to use fuel but also allowed for the distinguishing of the fuels.

The Aston Martin DBS was first brought before the general public in the feature motion picture Casino Royale. In the James Bond movie, the DBS depicted within the film is actually just a modified DB9 since the DBS super car was still in its developmental stage. Some may ask, “What is the big difference between a DB9 and a DBS?” There is quite a big difference indeed.

The Aston Martin DBS is built on the same platform as the Vanquish. The DBS weighs more then 400 lbs less then the DB9. Not only that is produces 60 Horsepower more. With composite ceramic brakes and F-1 style transmission, if you really take a close look, you will see that the DBS is a world apart from the DB9.

The DBS has been fitted with what Aston Martin calls an Adaptive Damping System. This system has five different settings to adjust the car’s ride and handling characteristics somewhat similar to the I-drive feature found in BMW’s M6. In the summer of 2008, the new Aston Martin DBS is sure to make a big splash in the sports car world.
