  1. We ran milk trucks around here that were spec'd for flat country, tag in the back.... when we ran them here, lifting the axle on an incline with a load on ..... took the weight off the steer couldn't turn worth a darn. Don't know the lay of the land in your country, but definitely something to consider.
  2. Judging from the dust collecting on the fan belts (and price tag), that A-model may have found its grave..... What's he want for it anyway?
  3. I have always been curious about the language barrier and long distance trucking in Europe. I wonder if the language barrier is as bad now.
  4. Why do some Mack's have air tanks mounted under battery boxes and others don't? Just customer option?
  5. Doesn't a Mack 12 speed basically do the same thing?
  6. Seems to me its like hanging a heat pump on the exhaust. . .amiright?
  7. Were F models preferable to the Cruiseliners? or is it the other way around...?
  8. Sisu builds a hell of a motor in Massey tractors.. . wonder why they don't install their own in the trucks?
  9. Would that sleeper window been cut-in after-the-fact?
  10. I believe this is a 300+ Shouldn't it have a horseshoe pressed into the back sleeper panel?
  11. A phrase like "Legendary Awesomeness", and the word "badass" in a promo? Clearly directed towards the millennials. I'm not yet 40 and it sounded a little "low-brow" to me. The black machinist was obviously planted in the video for the diversity nod... and what does the exaggerated collar size (and hair-do's) of the 70's have to do with how well a truck is built? Real nice footage though!

  13. I know they are odd for us Americans.... but damn, I like them! Ruud Sneepels Scania 164l 580 V8 + 143H 420 V8 Seem like a dream to drive.
  14. Try giving these people a call... http://www.starclassinc.net Website show's APU's... but I talked to them a year or so ago about boots. Pretty sure they can fix you up.
  15. Word on the street says Able is useless for sleeper stuff now....
  16. BC The trailer had separate brake controls, operated by someone other than the driver?
  17. I feel no remorse for those Iraqis who 'helped us'. I'm certain they knew the risk of aiding the invaders, and were compensated handsomely for doing so.
  18. Here's one even better. . . . Metallica's approval rating was to the moon in post-Soviet Russia.
