i have had almost all the brands out there in towing equp over the years but the best one i had was aatac on a 1 ton had the best boom for its size and the nicest controls to use

There was a big prob with the F model it rusted out and wore out [ one truff truck] because of this parts are a hard find and hole trucks are even harder to find so at the truck shows not many there. so those of us that have them are very proud of them and ritefuly so i think we should band togeather to save one of macks best trucks ! sorry guys got up on my soap box there.

I do have a request though alot of you have sean my truck and that is appernt by the missing grass around it at macgungie this year i have the rased roof gold and white F-model test truck that I am going to name " what the hell is that blue thing on the back of the motor" because i think i heard that 1000 times and it never gets old . so any info about my truck any one has i would love to hear i finly have some pics my profile and on this site at the oct 29 and loves shows every one i talk to has an idea about what my truck did in its life but so far no one was there to witness it for shure always love to hear the ideas and guesses some of them are funny and some are out ther but all are welcome thanks guys- charter member of the" mack pack"- Jay Barbe
