  1. Well here I go down the rabbit hole-What is the power plant and tranny.🙂
  2. That would be an interesting thread.
  3. This thread took a turn down a rabbit hole.🙂
  4. Toilet paper is a highly nutritious plant based product that is high in fiber and low in fats and gluten free. When I was a kid I used to eat bread and gravy may bee a better alternative would have been tp and gravy.
  5. Is that a 673C engine? How would it compare to a 237 maxi?
  6. I posted a couple of photos from this web site to Pinterest. Is this ok? I guess I should have found out first.😦
  7. Would a shot of grease a day be advisable?
  8. The goal of the DMV is to make things as complicated and F'd up as possible. Maybe Black dog or Patiamdboss can help.🙂
  9. Axle forward VHD looks pretty sharp. Doesn't seem like much has changed.
  10. Mack salesmen have the sniffles so they stayed home. What is the matter with Daimler don't they realize that they could blamed for the C virus spread. Well I guess somebody has to make the world go round.🙂
  11. Real smart truck manufacturers give the customer what he wants. No sense in turning a customer away when he barely has a foot in the door.
  12. Bye bye Granite. Cab overs (MH & LE) won't be far behind.
  13. IH board of directors are on the verge of traitordem as far as US truck manufacturing goes. So support Crane Carrier, Paccar, Autocar, Oskosh, Ford, GM etc. Screw VW, Daimler, Fiat and Volvo.
  14. Can't get anything by Mr. Hancock!
  15. KS: We would be more excited and supportive if Volvo pushed Mack like Diamler pushes Freightliner and Western Star. Since the 2000 takeover we have gotten: A warmed over Vision with a plus 4 cab (Mack Pinnacle axle back). A lighter Mack Granite with a Cummins engine. (MHD) An LE trash truck. ( Not bad but looks only a mother and NY city could love). A Titan. (Woops we think a Volvo heavy haul is a better option) An Anthem ( Pinnacle axle back with the roof knocked out) New Pinnacle( axle forward CH with an enhanced bow tie grill) And don't forget the steering wheel with the flat bottom. No new heavy haul options or big power. On a positive note. New interior designs all around and the new MD(better late than never I guess)🥱
  16. That's bad ass and rare. Metal looks pretty decent.
  17. Like the nice high hood. How do they achieve this? Extra springs up front?
  18. It would seem that the B model Mack was more aerodynamic than the R model. If the MH had wind tunnel data I would guess the later R models did also. May bee that's why the CH and Vision came about.
  19. If the Euro style cabover(cabs) had straight(flat) lines over the front axle they would look so much better IMO. Cab body lines as in the Mack MH or Freightliner Argosy.🙂
  20. Navistar board of directors still holding out. Good.
  21. Volvo medium duty?
  22. KS: Are you one of the five in the picture?
  23. Tapping into the jeep market.
  24. What do the belts drive on the MP7's? Alternator water pump and power steering pump?
