  6. Amen joe i agree w/ ya 100% I didnt know how to shift an airshift till i was round 21 yrs old (& im 32 pushing 33) all i was raised on was a 2 stick Mack & 2 Stick 5&4 & 4&4 trannys in like our Autocar we had the GMC'S HAD Airshift 8ll & 9spds except the single axle had a 5&2 w/ a 671 (238) Detroit that enjoyed driving but i was so comfortable w/ a 2 stick i didnt wasnt in a hurry to learn a airshift These new drivers look @ a 2 stick tranny & say "HOW IN THE HELL DO YA DRIVE THAT TRUCK ?" & SOME CANT EVEN DRIVE A CRIS CROSS TYPE 9SPD Give a R OR DM Model mack w/ camel back & a double frame & ill show a VOLVO UP IN THE DIRT & MUD ya may out run me on the blacktop BUT in the dirt ill show a volvo up I could rant on but i wont later
  7. Amen Herb preach on brother preach on The main truck my family has owned over the years is but we have owned the Autocars & White's (pre volvo) & GMC Brigadier & General (pre volvo) I Keep preaching that the same will happen to that has happened to the rest volvo has bought (heavy truck & construction eqpt) The only way Autocar came back was that fortunly another company wound up w/ Autocar the bad thing is they are a Low Cabover mostly used as Garbage trucks although i have seen 1 outfitted as a Concrete pumper As far as The "Jimmy's" the were pashed out within 2 yrs after VO*V* Bought GM's heavy truck div May the "Jimmy" R.I.P. We owned quite a few over the years w/ NTC Cummins & 2 Stroke Jimmy motors & they were a good "poboy's " truck I Pray as FJH Mentioned we DONT SEE VOLMACK ON THE TRUCKS IN THE NEAR FUTURE but im afraid is having its grave dug slowly i hope pray mack doesnt have one foot on a banna peel & 1 foot in the grave !!! But folks the future of mack doesnt look good & we have VOLVO 's to thank for it !!! just my 2 cents
