Mack 3P

I was told Mack was not making any money on the fire trucks. KME bought the Mack fire line. I was told they had people come down and take everything from parts and prints to tooling. There is still a connection between the companies, a number of people at Mack started their carear at KME.

There was some excitement on Thursday after lunch. There was a fire in the Chassis paint booth. No injurys and no trucks damaged.

GREENSBORO, NC (January 12, 2012) – The National Geographic Channel will premiere its episode of Ultimate Factories featuring Mack Trucks, Inc. on Saturday, Jan. 14 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). The hour-long episode will take viewers behind the scenes, showing start to finish what it means to be Built Like A Mack Truck®. A heavy-haul Titan by Mack™ takes center stage as its Mack MP10 engine – top rating of 605 hp and 2,060 lb-ft of torque – rugged Mack Cornerstone chassis and air-ride equipped cab come together to form the most powerful truck Mack has ever built.

“Filming a show about Mack trucks was definitely one of the coolest gigs I've had,” said Ultimate Factories associate producer Francis Cordero in her blog about the episode. “There are hundreds of people involved in the making of this truck in three main facilities. We filmed at all three locations, the first at the Macungie Assembly plant where the trucks drive off the line. The second facility was the Powertrain center where the Mack engines are made. The last location we filmed at was the Customer Center where Mack trucks are test driven on a closed course.”

Don't know, I'll keep an eye out.

"How many minutes MACK got on the show???? 6 to 12 minutes?? and Peterbilt got a full hour in the Ultimate Factories TV SHOW. I want an ULTIMATE FACTORIES episode about MACK TRUCKS so they can show that MACK is a fully integrated TRUCK built by one sole MANUFACTURER- MACK TRUCKS.

And yes Ultimate Factories already did a TRUCK episode, but they have done several car episodes (Corvette, Camaro, BMW) so they can do a better TRUCK episode with MACK TRUCK."

Already filmed Mack Ultimate Factories. Not sure of the air date yet. I'll keep everyone posted.

Partially correct. The fairing and deflectors are not installed on all the decked trucks. The one in the picture would be a lead truck. The shipping company often takes them off or puts them on.

3P,,,,,,We know you jumped in the corporate helicopter,, Went to Australia for the picture then flew to Canada to take the picture of the stone slinger..... So we have our fix of new truck candy

I wish. I've been trying to figure out a way to get to Australia for years. My managers have always told me that they get to go first.

I keep sharing pics of new trucks so people might get the itch for a new one.

The completed trucks are from a internal Marketing email "Truck of the week". Typically Dealers send in photos and a little story about the customers and the success of the Mack's.
