  1. It was Mack's form of "internal EGR" to reduce NOx. I believe it was used mostly on vocational trucks. They offered an "external EGR" version too.
  2. Looks like they have not moved since you took the pics. I did not see the Indiana...is it more to east? If so I did not venture past the Fs. I knew the Paccar was not a F but could not see well enough to know if it was a Pete or KW.
  3. Likely a CL700.
  4. Sunday was a nice day here in central PA. After I went to the "stuffit buffit" at Hoss's I took a drive to Huntingdon to take pics of the Mack Fs. They are parked along the south side of Route 22 just east of Miller's Restaurant (which is east of Huntingdon about 3 miles). I am kicking myself since that is where I stopped for lunch in January. If I had my "Mack sniffer" on I would have been able to take some pics then. Only one was visible but there are seven (7) in total. There was another COE that I think is a Peterbilt but could not tell for sure. Several had an extension on the back of the cab. Was this a factory option or aftermarket? Also a tree grew around the RH mirror. I tried to take some pics of the others but too much of a jungle. I am not a fan of poison ivy, wasps, and snakes so I will go back another day in the winter and take some more pics. I think the only thing keeping the cabs intact is the paint. From what I saw there is MAJOR RUST everywhere. The truck shop across the highway has Huntingdon Motor Company painted on the building and there is an old Mack logo painted on the building however the dog is now a pig with a bulldog face (WTF?). There are a bunch of Peterbilts sitting around (some roadworthy some not). I think a local trucking company is using the building. According to Google, HMC is located closer to the town of Huntingdon.
  5. Use EDIT.
  6. Okay, I understand. Thanks for the explanation. I am used to seeing an outboard drum and makes sense with Budd wheels (or wheels like on a pickup or car). My spoked MH has inboard drums, correct? I will have to look at my GD trailer but it "should" have outboard drums (hub piloted wheels).
  7. Here we go again!
  8. Perhaps I am the only one who does not know about inboard drums. To the "uneducated" would someone please post a pic of inboard drums. Thanks!
  9. Thanks for the update Tom. Tell him we are thinking of him and wishing him the best. Looking forward to seeing him on BMT soon.
  10. Do you have a "line lock" to hold the front brakes? In your second "run" it looks like your front left tire left a "black mark". Either way...we liked the burnouts. Hopefully no cops heard it.
  11. That would be my guess, Yellow ran alot of Brigs.
  12. Another nice truck from the WEST.
  13. Yes great show this year. I posted my pics in the original Watt's Truck Show thread but here is the link to pictures I snapped. http://s1305.photobucket.com/user/pafarmer52/library/#/user/pafarmer52/library/2013%2008%2024%20Watt%20Truck%20Show?sort=2&page=0&_suid=137742373021607772674077845596
  14. The 6th Annual Watt's Truck Show is history. If you were not there, you missed the best show yet. Over 150 vehicles were present. Great show, great weather, and great people. A BIG THANKS to Barry and Watt's for a job well done! Here is the link to my pics. I tried to identify BMT member trucks. Sorry if I missed anyone's trucks. Shawn did the honors of taking the BMT group picture but I found out later at least one member missed the pic. http://s1305.photobucket.com/user/pafarmer52/library/2013%2008%2024%20Watt%20Truck%20Show#/user/pafarmer52/library/2013%2008%2024%20Watt%20Truck%20Show?sort=2&page=1&_suid=1377385719632036746893542781056
  15. The Amish version of a Chevy Avalanche.
  16. Bummer! At least you will not have to worry about missing the BMT picture. I will be taking pics as I am sure others will too.
  17. Nice pics but hate to see all that old iron leaving.
  18. Must be something about the name "Randy".
  19. Great! Pike is more direct for you. Unless you get off at Bedford (I-99 north to 22 West). Where are you going to do your "burnout"?
  20. Nice shirt but where is the Mack logo?
  21. Agree! Also note the steering wheel location. JD GP top pic
  22. Mike - you keeping a journal of all the BMT members you meet? When are we going to do breakfast again? P.S. And I hope the red Mercedes is there too.
  23. A white truck in a blinding snow storm?
  24. That is the weekend before Gerhart's show. I marked my calendar but I will say a "definite maybe". Need to be in several different places that weekend. Depends on the weather forecast and Mrs. Farmer. About 2-1/2 hours from the PA to Winchester. Decisions, decisions. BTW, nice pics of nice trucks!
