kscarbel Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 Question: In what way did Mack Trucks and MAN share a common connection?Answer: Both the International Motor Company (the forerunner of Mack Trucks) and German truckmaker MAN produced Swiss Sauer brand trucks under license.MAN began producing Saurer trucks under license from 1915.The International Motor Company, the holding company that included the Mack Brothers Motor Car Company and Saurer Motor Company*, began producing Saurer trucks under license from 1911 at a plant in Plainfield, New Jersey which went on to become Mack Truck’s legendary Plainfield drivetrain production location. *The New York-based Saurer Motor Company had been created in March, 1911 to build Swiss Saurer trucks under license, 7 months before becoming a part of the International Motor Company in October. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Too interesting note indeed.Thank you for the Mackological test.I noted long ago that early Macks and Saurer's have much in common but didn't know MAN was involved.By the word, isn't the history of MAN brand not too long in time?I think the company called Bussing in early days, or maybe there was a different story?
