  1. I think the last of the Macks at Roadway were R model Econodynes with Mack engines. Why didn't these catch on? Seems like it was all Whites and Volvos after that. Cummins engines were also available in the MHD, and the 6.9 Cummins is the only engine option for the new MD.
  2. Roadway had tons of Macks and Whites powered by Detroits.
  3. O&G should be over this by now. May be they are and they just don't care for the Volvo product.
  4. I know of a guy named Kevin who could answer these questions, but he seems to be AWOL lately.🤥
  5. Jkuhl: Would what you did be considered a delete. How easy would it be to catch the cooler removal and piping blockage.
  6. Is this going to be a rear mixer or a front discharge. If front why doesn't Mack sell this configuration.?
  7. Superliners came out in 77 I believe, Didn't know they kept making the 700's after that.
  8. Plus 3 cab(possible galvanized)-+, Big cam-+, Room for a sleeper-+, Good lookin dog-+🙂
  9. E-7 400 seems like a good compromise between power and longevity. What is the torque on a 400 E7. 1500-1600?
  10. What options for HP increase are there? E7-400, E7-427, E7-454? Turbo and injectors I assume.🙂
  11. Hopefully Autocar will not allow Europe to encroach upon them.🙂 Navistar folded liken a cheap suit.🤕
  12. This was a time when Mack Engineeres were allowed to be engineers. Not Volvo string puppets.😟
  13. I often wonder why the MR isn't used more broadly in the construction industry such as mixer(non pumper), dump and even HD tractor. As stated they are easy to service and work on. This would apply to Autocar and Paccar as well. I have seen some older MR dumps (Galasio from East Granby)from time to time. We even have a twin steer White expeditor running around here in CT.🙂
  14. Bid now 1,655. 1 day 20 hours left. Frame looks clean, so may be the cab isn't bad being from Virgnia and all. So little info though. May not even have an engine or tranny.
  15. Frame up resto definetley not worth it @ 40k
  16. Would be nice to know some more info such as does it run, cab rust etc.(side view pictures)
  17. Yeah when you look out the front window you will be looking skyward.
  18. That may bend in half sitting in the parking lot. This may be a teachable moment. What would be the procedure and cost for a frame replacement on this vehicle.?
