Is it just me or is Mack replacing everything that is Mack with Volvo? If I wanted a Volvo engine and a Volvo looking cab I would go and buy a Volvo.

Fusion is much more then a new cab based on the Mack cab, not Volvo. They are new models that were designed to be more comfortable, and productive. The new engines are shared with Mack, Volvo, and Renault, but the US engine was developed and manufactured at Hagerstown which is now Volvo North America's powertrain facility, formerly Mack plant. Each truck brand has specific needs and requirements that its own engines will meet. The new trucks will be unveiled soon.

Volvo, VTNA, Mack, and Renault (aka Volvo Global Trucks) share parts just as Peterbuilt, DAF, and Kenworth (aka Paccar), or Freightliner, Mercedes-Benz, Sterling, and Western Star (aka DaimlerChrysler). Volvo has replaced some of their parts with Mack and Renault just as Mack is using Renault and Volvo and so on. Most of these common parts consist of hardware. To compete and survive in this global truck market is necessary to be part of a larger group. It is known by Volvo that someone who buys a Mack is unlikely to purchase a Volvo as their next truck just as a Volvo customer is unlikely to by a Mack. That is why the products will remain different and distinct yet sharing parts for greater buying power. We may not like all the decisions Volvo makes but we are still around.

I am not and unable to give any new info, just trying to clear up concerns and misinformation.

This is a nice looking Axle Back.

Here is a link to the article about the hybrid Mack.
