I agree, looks easily done with the clean fracture. Just a timely process.

They made 135 of the R492 models.

1- Iraq will have a civil war and Iran will aid the "rebels" and then we will see one unending "revolution" there. 2- Iran will follow through with their threat to level Tel Aviv and Haifa which will require Israel to selectively take out Irans power base and nuclear production. 3- the slim possibility Russia and China will intervene to some what head off the confrontation.

You can use the gps or speedo phone app to set the dip switches on your new speedo. But I see with your set up all you need is an accurate mileage reference.

Also there are speedometer apps for your phone that are extremely accurate to clock both speed and distance via GPS

Gutted is a more fitting term , like they did to White. Difference was that White had enough bones to build back up some what, Villy Voodenshoe Corp even ate the dogs bones. Volvo gave MACK a sour reputation with poor choices for Vocational units, limited engine sizes , reliability issues in the MP series injectors and poor warranty support. Go to your local Truck Group Dealer and the sales reps push PAACAR or Volvo and discourage any interest in a Mack thats not"off the shelf" . One black mark voids all of the pluses.

And don't forget to re adjust them. LED's have a different lens pattern so the lights need to be set up not to blind on coming.

There was a policy back than that should be followed today. A needed trade, skill and / or a sponsor provided job was required then. No illnesses like Polio, TB and such. any hint of illness you were quarantined and if positive you were send back to where you came from.

2000 and up ELD and any older truck with 2000 or newer engine requires and ELD. Here is the required inputs for the ELD from mainly 4.3 on down. ECM VIN id is one of the requirements. may need to copy and paste link. https://eld-federal-requirements.readthedocs.io/en/master/4-functional_requirements.html

I agree, but what I spec'd out on the Mack site and what the dealers say is offered (at least the three I dealt with) are two different things. I know what I wanted is made because Shaws in Maine has 5 of them in their yards MP8 445HE, Maxi torque, Dana-Spicer rears on Hendrikson HN @ 52,000 suspension . It seems that many of the multi brand dealers just want to sell Petes ,KW's and such.

No wall, a few hundred of my baby cannibal snowmen would stop en dead.

Well you just need to have the operator wash it every day after work. I pay my people to start each day with a clean truck or machine. Shows that you have pride in you work . . . sloppy rig =sloppy work in many cases. Got a few jobs because of clean maintained equipment.

And now Autocar is taking away the sanitation and Concrete pump market from Mack. Terrible for the Volvo Board to be so indifferent to the N.American market.

Gabrelli Mack has 4 or 5 dealerships between them all maybe 2 Macks in the delivery line, but the lots full of Petes and K.W.s. Last year I speced out an Anthem for pulling a low boy with a dozer or granite blocks for break waters. Dealer flat out told me to go for a Western Star or a Pete because the Mack with all the specs I wanted still did not have a heavy chassis as an option, only the "road" chassis was available. I checked with the Mack dealer in Richmond and got the same story. They both said Volvo only wanted OTR sales and heavy units to be Volvo. Ended up getting a pair of AM General ex mil power units. Sad state that even the dealers feel screwed.

I feel Volvo is doing this on purpose to Mack by squeezing the last bit of life out of it Seems to me they never had any real interest beyond the dealer network (which IMO they damaged pretty well too) . I hope that it gets bought and it is not too late to turn it around but deep down I have little hope.

That Superliner in the last pic is the thing dreams are made of.

I believe that is the Power Leash Indicator. Look up Power Leash in the operators manual.

Bet Swift goes to the hospital and hires him.

Maybe if we vetted any of the foreign personnel coming to learn instead of pencil whipping them on the word of their government this wouldn't happen.

The entire body design is for low cost manufacturing. All the body panels are made with a shear and a brake. no curves so no expensive tooling and presses. But like his hyped Semi that he took tons of deposits on this will quietly go away. I recall his semi was to be in production this past summer. The pick up if produced will be the new thing in Hollywood to be seen in.

The extended nose factory or a mod for a longer power pack? Either way it looks well done. Paul

Best restored AC I've seen! Is the dump body a new copy? Paul
