  1. According to a member of this site one of the reasons Mack Western left California was poor worker motivation and quality of work. Reason why Peterbilt left California also.
  2. Nice fleet Pat. I bet the southern puppies are still working.
  3. 57: Lucky you are not driving a U model.
  4. That's funny fjh. TS7 I agree with you 100%. Paccar didn't have the product or component lineup that Mack had 40 years ago Yet they are still around. They didn't over reach like Mack and White did. While Paccar maintained a profitable business model Mack and White did not as a result of over expansion.
  5. I think the midliner helped keep Mack afloat prior to Renault take over
  6. Actually they sold a lot of those French poodles
  7. Why don't they sell Mack and get it over with? Probably will let Mack die like White, Autocar and Diamond Reo. Speaking of Autocar why don't they expand their line up into construction heavy haul etc. Maybe the sale agreement with Volvo precludes such an expansion.
  8. Now he can sail around the ocean in a Cummins powered Yaht.
  9. Still no Cummins options?
  10. Was watching rig races on you tube the other day. How boring can it get. Paccar vs Paccar/Paccar vs shaker/Paccar vs Paccar. I noticed the parking lot truck displays are bling Paccars after Paccars. Not like the old days.
  11. Move over Japan. Good luck.
  12. Does run? Sell it. Cut up something else like a shacker Paccar IH etc.
  13. Does Hendrickson offer a suspension similar to camelback?
  14. R700's can be as ugly as sin without a little bling or as good looking as super dogs dressed up. Nice R700's I am thinking a V12 will fit under an R700 hood.
  15. Nice motor home chasis
  16. Like the XF and CF. I would suppose that Paccar gives DAF engineers pretty much free reign.
  17. Be care full of being entwined in one of KS's wish full thinking scenarios aka April fool B model. That one had me convinced.
  18. I wonder how many RD/RB/DM roll offs are converted to dumps. Seems like there would be a lot.
  19. One wonders if they calculate in the cost of battery charging electricity and the cost to produce the batteries. May bee they are shooting for 10.00 an hour drivers.
