    Mack sold over 2000 vehicles in december 2011. First time passing 2000 since 2006. Things are looking good at Mack.

    Mack White and IHwere dominant in the midwest east and south during the 50's 60's and 70's. Does anybody know who sold more trucks

    Those babies are all in great shape. The IH 190 is awsome

    The Connecticut Schusters was out of Colchester Ct. Green white 9000's in 60-70's. Last fleet trucks were brown Mack U-600's before they went belly up. They had a terminal in Wallingford Ct also.

    Jacobsin logistics had volvos before. Good move to Mack.

    Why does UPS cut up their trucks? Because they are flipin insane and they have been that way for over 50 years as far as I can tell. Close to the best maintained vehicles in the industry and ripe for resale and they destroy them. Sounds like insanity in my book.

    I remember seeing that KW as a kid. It was a nose to nose shot with another diesel powered KW. I think they were trying to show the low profile of the turbine vs the diesel. Now that I think of it the pictures were in an encyclopedia.

    Unfortunately nothing will sound as good as that white gaser if it had a split manfold. Don't get rid of that engine as the White nuts will grab it up. That school bus idea sounds good. Cheap purchase and plenty of parts around. Good luck.

    lmackattack: When I was a yungun back in Illinois there were several trucks that used to pass by our house from crystal lake Illinois. One of the companies was called crystal lake sand and gravel. They used all red henricksons. One of them had a really strange sounding engine. Later found out that it was a 2 cycle Harnishfegger diesel. Dundee sand and gravel used all yellow and black Hendricksons. There were also tons of Macks from Celli Palumbo Bongi and Lindhall. I think Lindall is still in business using Petes unfortunately.

    I'll bet these clowns are all for memorials for animals but against roadside memorial crosses. If you don't believe in God something will fill the void to make us humans feel worthwhile. As the Bible says the devil is the author of confusion and chaos. Petites are surely confused.IMHO

    Seems like there was a sales brochure that looked like that superliner.

    What video! It doesn't show up for me.

    Nice lineup of Mack dumps. I think there might be a blue pete in the mix. Probably gets stuck in the muck alot with Mack to the rescue.

    What about that twin screw B that looks like it might have some potential. Hard to see the condition from that angle.
  18. james j neiweem
    Quality carriers used to be all navy blue back in the 60's Blue twin screw B-61's. They were from wisconsin.
  19. james j neiweem
    There were many six wheel drive b-53 models produced mostly for cement mixers

    Superdog St. Johnsbury trucking ran a bunch of twin screw U-models with 903's back in the 70's.

    Great looking truck. I think a decked out CH is the best looking truck on thre road. Question though how can you factory ordera truck and not know if the engine is a maxidyne/econodyne/or (forgot what C is) These three options are programmed quite differently for different applications. You must have been so excited you forgot. I am guessing the salesman speced it to your application. Have a good one.
  22. james j neiweem
    Amen brother!
  23. james j neiweem
    What kind of cell phone is that. Sure take a nice picture. Nice CH for sure.

    I looked up lancaster llp and came up empty. Iknow alot of chasis are made by a company down in mexico. I hope not Mack.
  25. james j neiweem
    Sounds like the ideal job watching the dogs comming out of the factory. I was on a tour there last year and I was wondering where do the the chasises come from that enter the factory.
