They spent far less money Bob. Now it actually has a Volvo cab......atop the all Volvo chassis. Only the hood is unique. With the 11L engine (D11) discontinued (in the US market), and no big bore 15-16 litre engine (E9 or D16), the Mack brand's days appear numbered.

It's a Volvo with Mack badging. If I wanted a Volvo......I'd simply buy a Volvo (I wouldn't because Scania trucks of course are superior, particularly when equipped with the Mack-born V8). What foreign aggressor Volvo has done to Mack Trucks, reduce a global icon to a mere shell of its former self, should be a crime.

"Only one in four Americans approves of the U.S. strikes" Fake news. I say fake, because everyone I've asked supports the action. Iran is viewed as a dark cloud that has hung over the world since 1979. It has threatened to destroy America for 47 years. Reuters and AP must be owned by Democrats. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/just-one-four-americans-support-us-strikes-iran-reutersipsos-poll-finds-2026-03-01/

No. Russia and China won't do any more for Iran than some diplomatic talk. Russia and Iran have a history of disagreements....Iran cheated Russia on some deals. Iran and China are merely business friends, call it friends of convenience, because Iran had a good price on crude oil, refined gasoline and diesel. China goes with whomever has the best deal on oil......no brand loyalty there.

Columbia University's Pro-Palestine student group yesterday (Columbia University Apartheid Divest -CUAD) posted on X: 'Marg bar Amrika,' which means 'Death to America' in Persian. The post was deleted, but the student group posted a follow-up that said: 'X forced us to delete our “marg bar amrika” tweet in order to gain back access to our account but the sentiment still stands.' Geez. When I was young, they would all have been summarily arrested and jailed.

The whining by politicians on both sides of the aisle is absurd. Would these same people have whined when the 66 hostages were taken hostage in 1979? A world without a Islamist Iranian government committed to the death of the United States, is a better world for all. Today, we sadly learn that three soldiers have lost their lives. Some 7,000 soldiers died taking Iwo Jima, but nobody questioned our action. Some 7,000 soldiers were killed on Guadalcanal, but nobody questioned our action. UN Ambassador Mike Waltz said it correctly, "freedom is never free."
