That might not be as silly as it sounds Swish man
When I was fixing Mrs Macks cab I noticed the can still had the LHD holes for steering pedals etc
So might be very doable
But I think them Yanky jokers might have a heart attack at how much a new Mack costs down this side of the world

Well I love it, the grill looks good compared to what a lot of other manufacturers offer
The inside looks good.
Doubt they will ever make it in RHD but if they did I reckon I might well stick my hand up for one
I have read lots of complaining on the forum over the years about lack of US truck manufacturing, here's you chance Americans to put your money were your mouth is and throw your support behind it
The same goes for the T Line truck

Perfect
It works thanks Joe
Thats my Grandfather on the dozer loading what I'm pretty sure is a Burma Dodge, either that or ex Army EH Mack with some more civilian type cab
Here is my Grandfathers EH Mack
The family always said it was a NR Mack but thanks tp the forum I am 100% sure that's incorrect and it is a ex Army EH Mack

I just use Postimage.org. Save my pictures there that I want to post here. Then just copy/paste the link from Postimage and put it in your post. Really simple, free, and you don't have to worry about the size of the picture.
I'll give it a try

Joe I have no idea, I haven't changed anything, still using the same old computer but the forum has up graded over the years and I think perhaps something isnt compatible anymore
Oddly enough I can still post photos in the gallery but not on the forum

After looking at that new Autocar I would say Diamond T needs to step up their game if they want back in. That Autocar looks light years ahead of the DT. Wonder if they will step up?
Gotta agree, they at least need to produce something more than artist impressions of what they wanna sell

Speaking of all the BS regulations Red Horse.......I have a couple small farm tractors and I have been seeing all kinds of adds recently for these brand new Russian tractors like Zetor and some other name that escapes me at the moment, selling new tractors in the USA and Canada with tier 3 engines and advertising no emission systems or electronics.
How can they get away with that when all the domestics are forced to sell us junk?
Zetor isn't Russian, it's Czechoslovakian, different country all together
They were always a very clean running motor in the 70's compared to most other brands
They ran a lot cleaner than the US IH of the day and into the 80's and even the John Deere's so I feel they would have it well under control today

Will give me something to try tonight
Oddly enough I can still put photos up in the gallery
That bit on the bottom left of the screen shot you posted above no longer appears on my computer or phone
As in the bit about "Click to choose files"
All I get now is "Insert image from URL" on the bottom RHS of the page

Paul, up the top RHS of your screen where your username is.
Click on the arrow pointing down. (a drop down menu will appear)
Click on My attachments..
What does that tell Ya...
I think you have a 500MB limit (Quota) of attachments..
Sound like you may have to vaporise some old attachments to make some room for new ones..
BISTBC
This may well be the case but how do I delete attachments
Other people have asked this on here before and so far I haven't seen a answer

Thanks for the reply but that dohicky doesn't seem to be on my screen anymore, it used to be there for years
I still use the same computer and it even used to work on the phone once I reduced the pixel thingo
I had thread started here about something completely different but I couldn't even delete it once I worked out it wasn't working right, pretty sure I could delete threads in the past if I posted in the wrong spot or something
Dunno

That's how my screen used to be Swishman but all I get now is "Insert image from ULR" on the lower rhs
Dunno I have tried on the phone and on the computer but no luck with either
It used to say my attachments was full or some such thing, now this
Either way I'm buggered if I know

I cant seem to work out how to post photo's anymore ?????
I can see insert image from URL, that will only work if I have loaded the photo on another site that everyone has access toI cant use facebook because if people dont have facebook then they cant see them, I had/have photo bucket but its useless these days and is about as useful as a ashtray on a motorbike
So how do we load photo's to the forum these days ?????
Paul -
Well Im buggered if I know how to attach pictures anymore
A real shame to me but I cant find anyway to load up photo's so the story is pretty pointless with out picks and I cant seem to delete the thread so I guess I will give this posting photos a miss till the forum gets sorted
I have asked about photo posting and how its done these days but have had no repliesSo sorry to all I just type replies to peoples questions till I work it out again

Paul,
Do NOT quote me but I THINK it is about 50/50 maybe 70/30 in favor of loaner trucks??? Hopefully someone will have a better answer..
Maybe some year you and the Princess can make it up to the Macungie show.
I want to Mrs Mack and the Princess to Newzealnd for 12 months or so in the next couple of years
And I have also mentioned the idea of putting Mrs Mack on the boat to the US and Canada for a couple of years
The Princess hasnt said no, then again she hasnt exactly said yes either lol
But it NZ is doable as is the US, not sure about driving in the US with a RHD truck though

Australian Anthem
in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Posted
I would think that a new prime mover in Australia would be over 400 grand with a bunk, bull bar, and long tange tanks etc
Last new KW 90? something with all of what would be considered pretty standard gear in Australia was 450 grand around 550 HP
A mate bought it and hasn't had a bad run and this was at a guess 10 years ago
