Ford fusion is a great car. Ford could have this niche to themselves.

Nice truck if you like the feeling of the family jules dragging on the highway.🙂

Can't say I like the Grill but I guess they have to distinguish themselves from Paccar though.

Nice capture Vlad. If you spend a little extra money you can get those pants to reach your shoes.😃

For sure not scrapper material.

Glad it broke where it did. Its good to keep the B's on the right side of the highway!

Good to hear logtruckerman! Here in the state of Ct they buy wimpy Freightshakers and Navistars. But I guess that's all they need. Never saw an MHD for the state of Ct or a Granite of any type for that matter.'

I guess this will kill Mack off in the highly competitive state plow business. Maybe Volvo can slither in instead.

I would guess they would if they could. Olaf of the north must approve. Olaf's long range goal seems to be to replace Mack with Volvo in all areas here in the USA.🤥 I am not sure why Volvo doesn't push their conventionals in Australia to kill off Mack over there.

I'll bet F'n Volvo will have a model to fill the MHD slot just like they filled the heavy haul slot. Seems like Mack is always the whipping boy. Do they ever cut any fat out of the Volvo lineup? Stop buying Volvo's and let them exit the US. The only positive in this long drawn out scenario is that they couldn't kill off Autocar , thanks to the Feds. Diamond-T(bye bye- White road kill)! White (bye bye)! GMC heavy (bye bye) ! White GMC (bye bye)! And Mack is in a paralyzed coma ,all but brain dead , waiting for Volvo to buy coffin nails. Now on the brighter side -Mack employees are still working helping to keep Macungie and Hagerstown alive.

Volvo sure screwed up the Titans potential. But that goes without saying.

Should be seeing the A car conventionals more and more as time goes on.👍

I am sure the DT 466 has more power than the original white flathead or Cummins install

Yes its true the Fed is buying up the economy

Make sure your board of directors has a good Independence Day also. Independent of Germany and Volkswagen

I still can't see why you can't put a big power Cummins under that hood. It looks as long as a CL.😗

I believe the red R is an RD before the RD changeover. Love the RD's with the old style hood.

Dailey used to have a few White 3000's also.

Put four transparent wings on that Scania and you would have a dragon fly.🙂

Nice unit. I wonder how much longer is the hood on the new Granites compared to the original Granites.

Resembles a Pete Bubblenose

Diamond Reo Raider also

Why were the E9's able to pull so well? They were out torqued by the big block Cummins and Cats. Was it RPM's gearing etc.

I was reading Bulldog magazines from 1998 -2001 and I get the impression that every thing was looking up for Mack's future at that time. Mack CL and RD dominated construction. The Mack CH had a redesigned interior and was selling well in highway applications. The Vision was off to a good start. The CL had the big power Cummins option and was competitive in heavy haul. Mack had a good presence in class in class 6 & 7 with the MS and CS. Mack MR and LE were dominant in the refuse industry. Then in June of 2001 bam Volvo bought Renault. Mack executives gave no hint of the trouble ahead (Vickner/Gigou) . The years prior to this they painted a rosy picture. Mack was a sitting duck by allowing Renault to have controlling interest. Volvo got a package deal (Mack & Mack dealerships) in buying Renault. Mack died in 2001 as the last of the Mack engineered vehicles (Granite) hit the streets. Under the Volvo tutelage the following Mack products have died, front discharge mixer, marine and industrial engines, Mack engines I6 and V8, manual transmissions, mack chassis , Mack heavy haul product, Mack Titan and many Mack dealerships now dominated by Volvo. Volvo screwed up White , Diamond-T/Reo, GMC and now Mack.
