  3. Tonight on ABC News they interviewed a Women firefighter looking at a possible layoff situation and the interview took place in front of a beautiful CF couldn't tell if it was a pumper or tower it was in Mass I belive Brockton Mass, bulldog was standing tall in front line service after all these years. I saw a E one calender and the new trucks are goofy looking but that CF looked like a REAL firetruck.

  4. Ihave a 95 E 7454 from time to time the oil cap will be blown off its strange because thecap was replaced atie strapped in place so it wouldnt be lost. i'll be driving get out to tarp and see the spray tighten back up sometimes again in same day sometimes weeks later what would be pressurizing and what do i look for???

  5. Like the gentlemaen refered to earlier it's all about return on investemnet. The bean counters and as I call them Educated Fools have made decisions in the offices and consequences aren't kept in mind. This is now a Country of non serviceable parts and has a throw away mentality. Pride in your job? Shit, this has become every man for himself. I am just glad my 89 year old grandfather and my parents raised me not to be a sheep.What is going on is unacceptable and the granite faces on Rushmore would be apauld. Loyalty, besides for a select few is also a thing of the past. Wal Mart mentality Bigger Cheaper and Faster the hell with longevity!

  6. Every Co they buy they slowly suck the life out of it Autocar is a perfect example I was told by a mack rep the over the road trucks will be the first to go look at UPS and other large carriers who had majority Mack are all being replaced with volvo Unfortunatley by the time they are done the only Mack made will be a LE or MR refuse truck and that sickens me. My family bought our first Mack in 1921 and to think it is a true possibility volvo will slowly eliminate product lines sucks.

  7. You know I've thought about outfitting the R 766 to pull a set of trains You guys are right but every time we say we are, we find some exuse and it never happens. We really can't get anyone to even ballpark value,so if anyone has any ideas let me know. I'll be posting some more pics and also there is approx 15 different old B's in various states, i'll post pics soon the old boy wants to clean up the yard.

  8. We have a 1981 F model Mich spec spec truck for sale this is one of a kind orig owner bought new in 81 400 BC cum .sleeper which still has factory plastic on it. 13 spd fuller 44k Mack rears Never outfitted with fifth wheel or wet kit, spoke rims red in color trying to get pictures posted just a little behind on computer skills. We really don't have anything to compare it to for a price? this truck has less than 100 original miles.

  9. Diesel truck sales in saginaw Mich got a prototype with 2010 engine, they are letting a friend with a fleet of CL's with e-9's and some isx's test this baby for one year to see what it's made of. He's the guinee pig. Its siver Mich special loaded he pulls super trains with a gross weight of 164,000# . Going to the yard this week to see it he just started running it this week. It's one hell of a truck. I have been told loaded Mich spcl specs put it around 145,000$
