You know what they say...women can't resist a man driving a Mack truck.

That engine room is beautiful! Those big GMs are cool.

If you want to do some investigating on your Cummins, you could check out Red Smith. He's a BMT supporter.

Yeah, not a big fan of the wheel covers.

I'm not a big fan of Apple in general, but I've had an iphone for over a year and it's been extremely reliable and very easy to use. My son has a Windows phone and he really likes it, the rest of my family has Androids and they work but can be pretty finicky.

This is actually a pretty solid looking truck...I don't think I've ever seen a Roadranger behind a gas engine.

Man, Superdog! You've got a regular Mack ranch there!

I've got an Overdrive from the 70's which has a review of the new Freightliner Powerliner...they didn't have much good to say about that truck! I've got another issue with a tour of the Brockway factory in Cortland and they were impressed with how tough the Brockways were built.

LOL! that was the scourge of the cabover! best remember to yard-up all your S*it BEFORE tilting the cab! many is the time i saw a TV,thermos,dogs,cats,occaisionally a second driver,up against the windshield!..................................Mark

One time we were lowering the cab on a K100 Kenworth, the shift lever pushed a small fire extinguisher out of its bracket and the valve broke off of the extinguisher. The inside of that cab filled with what looked like white smoke, we thought it was on fire! That white powder was in every stinkin crack of that cab.

Great reading, guys! The F model is a beautiful truck.

Definitely not boring, Superdog. Post away!

Doesn't look too rusty.

It does look like an ex fire truck...that would explain the red paint and the nice condition. That's a mess of Macks in the background!!

Must be sold...the listing's gone.

I've done a few kingpins, they were always brass bushings. When we needed to heat them up to work on them, we would pump some fresh grease in them after heating to cool down the bushings.

Looks pretty decent.

Looks great!

Well, it's not a Mack or Brockway building but we did save a Binder dealer here in Columbus Ohio. If you look at where the old truck is parked next to the building, my office (where I'm sitting right now) is right there. The IHC stuff was removed in the Fifties, so we didn't get the chance to save any of it. It's now an office building for several different businesses.

What a hoss! Is that a Detroit in it?

That's a fine looking truck...why do the nice ones like that have to be so far away??

Years ago i was parked in a truckstop next to a Schneider IH Cabover,i went in to eat/shower and when i came out the driver walked over to me,and asked if i knew anything about trucks. "A little" i said,what seems to be the trouble?" well,it made a loud bang when i tried to start it" (he had something wrapped in a rag in his hand) i made i quick look under the truck (huge puddle of oil) when i stood up,he showed me what was in his hand,and asked "is this important"? it was! what he had in his hand was the journal end of a connecting rod,with a piece of the crank still attached! hole in the oil pan about the size of a football! 60 series detroit if i remember correctly............................Mark

Positive Crankcase Ventilation!!

I have a full size GMC for hauling, but my daily driver is a Toyota Camry. I've been driving Toyotas since 1986, wouldn't have any other vehicle. They're built like a...well...they're just well built.
