Sell me on a 2016


Recommended Posts

One thing you gotta remember when you rebuild older trucks, if you wreck them, you're screwed. Had a '81 valueliner, totally rebuilt, new rears, twin stick spd, and motor. It was repainted to. Basically showroom new. Driver fell asleep and totalled it. Insurance wanted to give us $12,000. I showed them what we had into the truck and I was told "thats unfortunate" We did end up with $18,000, but that was nowhere near what we stuck in it.

Value-Liner, the most beautiful Mack conventional of all time.

Just need to purchase gap insurance for the difference in book value and the real value.
