PeterMack Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Here is a Volvo loading a Mack at the outside Mack booth and a Mack backed up to a grinder at the Volvo booth. Coincidence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PeterMack Posted March 16, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2014 Here are a few more from the outside Mack booth and other Macks that were at the show. Mack had quite a few trucks herethis year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterMack Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 nice pics i defiantly will be there next timeI would suggest that if anybody is into construction trucks and equipment that you should make it to this show at least once.Quite a site to see, plus its in Vegas. Can go do some serious damage drinking and gambling after the show, or at the veryleast go overeat at a buffet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFCDrum Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 This is where Mack drops the ball. You look at the Kenworth C500's and the big Western Star 6900 and Mack/Volvo could be tapping more into that industry. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobEspecially at a time when the demand for that type of equipment has been increasing as a result of Marcellus Shale drilling and the like.

RFCDrum Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Agreed. Even Volvo doesn't really have a super heavy truck per say. I mean they have some pretty heavy FH's but still nothing like those sows for the oilfield work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterMack Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Had some pretty cool toys on display at Con Expo and one 15ft tall robot. The drill rig truck was made from Lego's,and the road grader was a Classic Construction Model made from brass that had a $1,300 price tag on it. I likedthe Mammoet push pull setup, but it was just part of a companys display. NFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterMack Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 One of the neatest things at this show is the miniature asphalt and concrete plants. I was talking to a guy at the Astec boothand he said they had six guys working on their display for a year and a half. I told him I wanted one for my toy room and he said I should buy a real one because it would be cheaper. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
