Does Mack Make An Engine Anymore?
Coalbucket replied to kentuckydiesel's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Well if they just put the Mack name on an engine made in Europe I would agree with you. But a lot of Mack engineers have put their heart and soul into these new motors. I met some of em on a tour. They think it's a Mack engine. -

Let's see. All the EGR system design and certification is done by Hagerstown engineers. The Purchasing is done by Hagerstown Purchasing. The assembly is done by Hagerstown Manufacturing. The Maxidyne, Econodyne, and Maxicruise ratings are clearly Mack. Sounds to me like Mack has enough of their thumbprint on it to call it a Mack. This year Detroit Diesel is going to put their name on the Mercedes MBE-4000 which is designed developed and assembled in Brazil. That's not a Detroit. But these engines are Mack.
