paul roncetti Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I agree bigdog, as I have lost so much of my manufacturing business to Mexico and points south I wouldn't be a part of selling trucks down there, I would rather junk them first. 1 RONCETTI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GearheadGrrrl Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Guys, at least the folks overseas are using Macks for their intended purpose- work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigiestrada Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 From my point of view I think that everyone in this forum has something in common by owning Mack trucks and that is to make money unless the ones that collect older model Mack trucks. I don't understand why you are trying to keep all the trucks in the US but for what?? So they can sit in a place for years and deteriorate??? While some other countries can use what the US doesn't want anymore?? I been in this business for years and I know where most trucks end up. In some salvage yards that end up selling trucks and parts for scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luigiestrada Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Isn't that a little selfish of your part?? I mean everybody likes to eat steak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stacksuperdog Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Why don't you guys use Petes, KWs, Freighliners? Maybe us Mack people here want the trucks to use for work too. We shipped one truck over seas it was a RB and the guy flew just to see it had camel back springs. It turned into a big mess at the ports. I know i will NEVER export a truck or knowingly help in the cause. 2 Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean everybody likes to eat steak.Maybe U.S. product should be made in the U.S. not in Pacotacojuanyman, Mexico or China. Maybe thats why our economy is in the red?

luigiestrada Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 I'm sorry but don't you think anyone in this world should have the ability to own a vintage truck, why does it have to stay in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stacksuperdog Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 for the same reason you use your Mack trucksMaybe so but have you seen the pictures of the poor trucks from down there. At least we maintain them and don't use them to push trucks around (some people do) but we take care of them.
