the case is stamped TRTXL1070B so I would assume that I have the later single stick version? im wondering if just a cover goes over the hole where the 2nd stick would normaly be?

I think on the early version the 2nd stick just put the trans into low low. With the later single stick version they just put a air shift control for that hole?

I think you are right about the second stick just putting it into low low. I'm not sure about anything else. I just by chance happend to see that cutaway picture of the 2 stick 12 speed as a new picture added to someones gallery here on BMT today and thought it could be what you have.

2 stick 12 speed? Like this

remember when cersosimo had a fleet of all macks rd and dm and ch and cl models ? now there all shakers and paccar.

I heard that they had a lot of problems with the last batch of CHs that they had. That could be why they switched. I will say that their new KW W900s are some sharp looking trucks. Last I knew they still had one R model with a log loader or something on the back and the dirt side of the company has a Granite 10 wheeler(something they got used. Its a brownish color and doesn't match their other trucks.)

logtruckman, Do you guys ever come over to Brattleboro with the Titan or Superliner? I see the CLs from time to time.

Now if he would just put the dog back on the hood!

I agree. That is the only thing I don't like about his Superliner.

A town called Wells Vermont. About 15-20 min from Rutland, and about 30 min from Manchester.

I've heard of Wells, but don't recall ever being there. I'm way down in the south east corner just below Brattleboro. Let me know if you have any Vermont questions I might be able to help you with.

Steve

Where in Vermont are you headed?

Really? We rented a Penske truck a few years ago, it had air brakes and we did not need a cdl to operate it!!

Tom

I know that in Vermont if the truck is under 26k, no cdl needed regardless of whether or not it has air brakes.

The owner of that all wheel drive B is 89 and still trucking!He lives about a half hour from me.

Wow! I knew he was an older guy, but didn't realize he was 89. Good for him!

I thought this all wheel drive B was really cool

If anyone is interested all the pictures I took at the show can be seen here http://s134.photobucket.com/albums/q118/sbrem/2012%20ATHS%20National%20Show%20%20Springfield%20Mass/

I see Mike Yarnalls F model over there on the left!!!

Thats a sharp LT,the red one,with "Eilers Brothers" on the door,looks to be a pretty rare "Aero-Liner" aluminum sleeper on it as well.............................Mark

They had their blue LT there as well

There is a reason only 261 of those things were built. There were three in West Springfield yesterday.

I agree that some of them don't look the best, but if they are done right I kind of like them. I really liked the one J.P. Noonan had at the show

What was that massive blue Kenworth? Does anybody know anything about that beast?

All I know is it was BIG

Congratulations!

I'll be there Saturday.

Phil, never met you but heard all good and you always have some really neat trucks for sale.

If you (or anyone else), is ever interested in something that Global has for sale and would like someone to take a look at it, it's only about a 20 minute ride for me to get there and I'd be happy to check it out.

Yea guys, rub it in cold and rainy here.

It's cool and raining right now down here in southern Vermont too, but they are saying by the middle on next week it will be in the mid to high 70s. It's been an odd year, that's for sure. Do you still have snow on the ground up there?

I have gotten a few small items for the RD I drive at work from them. I had good luck as well, and highly recommend them.

Looks like a Crosley. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/crosley-cars.htm

someone save that b model bus!!!!

Hopefully it goes to a good home. Very cool, and rare.

It would be a shame if you quit participating on this site. Your great wealth of heavy haul knowledge and Mack trucks is not only appreciated but valued here. And like Rob, I would hate to see you go.

John, I agree with Rob and Thad. Please stick around.

Only thing I really want to do now with mine well a few things are put a more stought trans in mine.

Here is a link to someone who swapped in a 13 speed. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=912565

I just checked again and it's back online now.
