Red Horse

looks like could have been a fatal

Attached photo was taken at this show. Left to right: Rich (66DC75), yours truly, Matt (MattB73IT), and Hippy (70MackMb). Bronco on left is mine and one on right is my son's who snapped photo. Blackdog showed up later with three of his beautiful red and white Macks. Oh, I'm an old 6'.1, so never post anything bad about Rich's trucks!

Got some bad news this morning from Bob Manchester that his dad passed away during the night after an on and off battle with cancer. Bob started a career with Amoco as a driver and when he retired he was a terminal manager. He and his sons established a beautiful collection of Macks, Autocars and a 761 Brockway that carried the name "Manchester Bros" and were kept in Cromwell Ct and Downingtown Pa. He was a most knowledgable person when it came to distribution in the oil industry as well trucks in general. And most importantly , a great friend who will be remembered and missed by many. Bob

Correct. I was told that by a commercial truck Ford guy. My comment was .."and the 6.7 Power Stroke doesn't generate a lot of heat". an absolute bullshit excuse IMO. Think of the west coast volume they would gain.

Did Adley use the slogan on their bumpers..."A Sleeping Giant Who Never Sleeps"??

Remember them for sure. And I would say they were strictly a "low bid" fleet. Looking at the variety of trucks they had, I would guess whoever had the lowest bid price, they got the order.

Family feud?

Ford should have these Aussies engineer the air brake option for 650/750 gas jobs seeing Ford keeps saying they can't offer air brakes on these God Zilla powered trucks because of under hood heat issues! absolute BS

Drive safe Rich. My shoulder is fine-relatively speaking , But now my right knee is killing me-old age sucks. As Brocky said, send pix, and regards to everyone. Danny and Kenny heading down tomorrow with the R model fire truck

For sure!!

KSC..No argument on the 7.8 parts availability, but that LN with an LTL grill is one good looking truck IMO..so much so thatI wonder if that is not a very good piece of photoshop work.

Has seen better days for sure!

Nice but how about a pix of the LTS next to it

yes but an L-10 or 3306 were what? 5-8 grand more..Just guessing..but if you wanted either in a Louisville I think you had to get a 9000 vs an 8000.

Wow! who owns that
