They need to go to a Salvage /wrecking yard or an Auction & buy a couple of Worn out Old Trucks, & use the Components to build a Truck (or 3). Would be Huge Boost to their Street Credibility .........IMHO

That Collapsible Aero Kit's a Great Idea.. Nice Looking Truck...

That bull bar gives a new meaning to the Word "Fugly"........

Back in the '80s the largest Articulated John Deere Tractor had a V8 Motor. I have a Funny Feeling the block was cast by GM. or there was some Non John Deere source for It...

YES, to both Questions.

It's a 100 years since the first Mack Trucks came to Australia. To celebrate We're getting some Limited Edition Superliners & Tridents.. https://www.macktrucks.com.au/100-years-limited-edition-mack/

I'm with Swishy... Grease packed Hubs give far less trouble than Oil filled ones in my Experience..

Air bags aren't bad either......

Look's "Rooted" to Me.........LOL Edit: You'll have to be an Aussie to appreciate my Humour (I Think)...

The Trident & Titan weren't about when the CH &CL's were current... From memory the CL was available in both "Elite" & "Select" versions. I seem to remember the E9 powered ones being Called Superliners.. But happy to be corrected though.

Yeah , We got 'em.. Can't remember them being real Plentiful though..

A bit like Mack here & In the U.S.A.

They sold the first batch Pretty easy.. From Memory the Boss of UD Australia got into hot water from the head Honchos in japan for doing It (Giving the Customer what they asked for).. & was told not to do It again.. They also sold a Series 60 powered version in the '90's...

An X12 powered GIGA would sell real well here I'd reckon Paul.. Cummins are in a bit of a bind with Kenworth refusing to fit the X12's in their trucks....

That's a Homemade gadget Kevin. Still impressive though.. I believe It's still about & gets to a few Shows in W.A.

Exactly...

Yeah Paul, a Kenworth T909 with bit of "Fruit" on It is over $400K. However there's a fair bit of KW tax in that Price. A T610 with indentical Driveline is significantly cheaper. as is a Western star with the same running gear. You can get a very Good B Double spec truck for around the $300 mark. all the way down to a Daycab Single trailer Spec around the $200K mark.

I've seen one..too big & heavy for my part of the World.. They were a limited edition for Star's 50th anniversary

Here is all I could find with Prices.. They're last years Builds so new ones would More..... https://www.trucksales.com.au/items/details/2018-mack-granite/OAG-AD-17038994/?Cr=0&psq=(And.Service.Trucksales._.(Or.SaleStatus.For Sale._.SaleStatus.For Auction.)_.(Or.SiloType.Dealer Used._.SiloType.Dealer New._.SiloType.Private Used._.SiloType.Dealer Near New._.SiloType.For Auction.)_.(C.Category.Trucks._.SubCategory.Prime Mover.)_.Make.Mack._.Year.range(2018..).)&pso=0&pss=price https://www.trucksales.com.au/items/details/2018-mack-granite/OAG-AD-16952483/?Cr=6&psq=(And.Service.Trucksales._.(Or.SaleStatus.For Sale._.SaleStatus.For Auction.)_.(Or.SiloType.Dealer Used._.SiloType.Dealer New._.SiloType.Private Used._.SiloType.Dealer Near New._.SiloType.For Auction.)_.(C.Category.Trucks._.SubCategory.Prime Mover.)_.Make.Mack._.Year.range(2018..).)&pso=0&pss=price https://www.trucksales.com.au/items/details/2018-mack-superliner/OAG-AD-16991063/?Cr=1&psq=(And.Service.Trucksales._.(Or.SaleStatus.For Sale._.SaleStatus.For Auction.)_.(Or.SiloType.Dealer Used._.SiloType.Dealer New._.SiloType.Private Used._.SiloType.Dealer Near New._.SiloType.For Auction.)_.(C.Category.Trucks._.SubCategory.Prime Mover.)_.Make.Mack._.Year.range(2018..).)&pso=0&pss=price
