  1. Can you still get Lund visors. Beautiful R model.
  2. Read somewhere where the CHU had a hood design change for 2017 to make them beefier. Is that so?
  3. Any chance that Ford will bring their cabover to the US.
  4. Who still makes the series 60 pre emission engines?
  5. I mix Power Services and Howes. Might not be a good idea but it has worked for me.
  6. KT_: I get the impression you may be a Mack employee(engineer)?
  7. Those 672 Cummins were popular in the early White 9000 coupe cabs and later the 743 Cummins (220 HP). The early white 9000 was a strong competitor to the B-61.
  8. Why is Renault so strong compared to Volvo/Mack?
  9. They cease to be a Mack customer/ That seems to have happened a lot over the last 20 years.
  10. That rust looks like you may be close to the ocean.
  11. Terry: Too hot. Too many snakes and scorpians.
  12. HB you're a yung un.
  13. Volvo COE not available here in the USA. Not yet.
  14. Nice looking truck. Hats off to Paccar. Its about time. Just when they were getting their T 800 to look respectable. I'll bet you can get big bore power in that baby as an option.
  15. If Volvo kicks Mack to the curb, Mack could still build some decent vehicles using Cummins, Eaton, Allison and Hendrickson components. A big plus would be Cummins network. The biggest plus would be Volvo restrictions would be gone and allow creativity to flow. Cummins needs Mack and Mack needs Cummins, Eaton, Allison and Hendrickson. Seems like it would be a plus for all companies involved. I have a couple of grand for the joint venture. Ha! John Deere or Oskosh might be a good fit also.
  16. Volvo pushing into the construction market can only hurt Mack even further, especially when the Volvo/ Mack dealerships push Volvos. Once they get a firm foothold in the construction industry they may kick Mack to the curb. Watch out if Volvo ever builds a COE for the refuse industry. That would further hurt Mack. The Volvo agreement where they had to sell Autocar can't go on forever.
  17. Wonder what the turning radius is of that 8 legged cow.
  18. Did the e6 and e7 use the same block. I thought the e7 was just an increase in stroke over the e6 with a beefier bottom end.
  19. Looks like the cab tilt system(2x4) needs attention. 1986 no maybe 1966.
  20. I like the eight legged cow. Tri axle
  21. CTC looks good in any color. Thanks for posting
  22. They don't push the camel backs but I believe you can still get them on Granites. Does Mack offer Hendrickson suspensions. They should be rugged like camel backs.
  23. Hope the upcoming new Mack will offer the Cummins big bore as is offered in the Volvo.
  24. Seems like Mack had one of those centers in Allentown.
  25. FX: The new grill and flat fenders will be quite a change from the present pinnacle axle back. Looks like more of a change than say a 55 to a 56 chevy. May be more along the lines of a 56-57 chevy.
