  1. May bee a dream but wouldn't it be nice if Volvo pulled out of North America and sold Mack to Scania. Then maybe we could import the Trident or Superliner along with the Scania V8 and the Mack Scania relationship of the past could be reborn. KS I love the time line history of the CH to the Anthem. So true.
  2. VW jaws are opening wider and wider, with tongue hanging out and drooling for the final chomp. Only Donald can save Navistar from it self. IMHO
  3. Would be interesting to see how this line up offering stacks up to Navistar/Volvo/Pete/KW/Shaker and Western Star in a side by side comparison.
  4. Storkmack. What about the new Pinnacle(CHU)(new interior) with choice of MP7/8 - Allison, M-Drive or Mack manual and new truck warantee. Just a thought
  5. Still can't see why you can't order a Mack truck without a drive train. Call it a glider or a truck without a drive train. (Whatever) . As its coming down the line put the rear of the frame on the robot dollies and drive it out the door. Not that hard! Like the diet commercial Nutra-System says " You eat the food you loose the weight. Its not that hard"! Volvo should allow Mack to have that autonomy. Why should Volvo care? As small as the glider market is this shouldn't disrupt the factory assembly line that much. After all different models and chassis run down the same line.
  6. Saw a Manafort T880 KW dump today in Portland CT to go with the T880 tractor I saw previously. not a bad looking truck really. Looks like they are dropping tan and brown color scheme and going all brown.
  7. Stork. End of the line for Macks?
  8. Sokolowski and Sid Kamp are on the same page color wise.
  9. We don't need free trade we need fair trade.
  10. May be the only RD 800 set up as a plow truck. Not to many RD 800 dumps for that matter. Very interesting unique set up. Thanks for posting.
  11. He also hauls chemicals into the witch hazel plant in East Hampton Ct. Followed her up a long grade in Marlborough Ct. That Cummins was struggling. Truck is painted white with black fenders.
  12. First gear replicas has issued the new Mack Anthem in 1/64 diecast. Already on Ebay.

  13. Yikes yuck yall!
  14. Probably a DAF design?
  15. Can't wait to see those anthem day cabs with the dump trailers. Hope they will offer 44/46's
  16. They must loose forward gears when the dump goes up!
  17. Xdude: Love that shot of the superliner from street level.
  18. That's funny!
  19. Another company to the dark side. Saw a new T 880 for Manafort pulling a dump trailer. These used to be Granites. long time Mack user although they did have a T800 lowboy. Mack not having a heavy haul option allows competetors to get a foot in the door
  20. Having trouble finding the site.
  21. Interesting out of the box thinking on the fender hood interface on the Cummins AEOS.
  22. I guess the power companies will love vehicle electrification.
