Bullheaded Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) You can get 16 front and 46 rears for sure. That's what the above truck has. Actually you can get 69,000 tri-drive also. I have pics of that posted in this forum somewhere also. Edited June 12, 2019 by Bullheaded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took a trip to NH this weekend from CT. Saw may bee 4 Anthems. Very few CH Pinnacles. Lots of Granites.Saw more new Western Stars than Macks. What is up with ABF and UPS. No Anthems. ABF swithed to KW, And UPS to KW,Shaker and IH. Those new UPS shakers look like they can be bought at bargain discounts KW and Freightliner are 10k cheaper than Mack so brown looks at bottom line.

The Anthem is getting popular around here now for live bottom and wood chip haulers. Here is one I took a pic of last year I have posted in the forum here somewhere. Gabrielli in N.Y. and Excel in Va. both got specs I wanted but Gabrielli is talking with "engineering on best power plant to use for my needs" with my trans, rears, load and terrain. Thats about 40% highway with the rest split between quarry roads, compacted dirt and ocean beach. Anthem day cab, with painted accessories and stainless bumper cover, twin 142 gal tanks, Maxi torgue T300, 65,000 dual reduction rears on Camel back. Most likely a MP8 445SE-HE for my low and mid range power band .

Spec'd out most everything I wanted. Asked the salesman at Excel in Va. a few questions and got vague answers. Asked what the heaviest chassis available is and asked the differences between the seven different MP7 engines and the eight different MP8 engines. I know some with the letter 'C' are California spec but wanted to know what the 'A' , 'E' , 'SE' , 'SE-HE' engines are. Sales man suggested the 5050 h.p. engine and the M drive was what everybody buys so get that. Hope thats not all the dealers attitude. I won’t say I know you well but what I do know is you love custom old iron with big horsepower from the pics you’ve shared of some of your cars. If your goal is to spend all of juniors inheritance why not go big and build a custom older truck? Kind of like a glider but with every bell and whistle you want? Pick your favorite truck, add your favorite big bore that’s been warmed up of course and as Bob says have a ball with it while turning heads. Just my two cents.

HeavyGunner Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Sounds like you’re having fun learning to drive that truck. Looks like a lot of fun.

I use the 3 AM Generals and the old Autocar on the business. I don't need a zillion horses I need a specific low to mid power band but mainly from idle to 30 mph. And new for the contract on the Federal site. My Marmon is not set up to go off the pavement and it is too old for the feds to allow on site. As for high power, don't need it for big granite I need gearing. The biggest blocks weigh in around 120,000 +/ - The toy is my B mixer. . Plans for a Claiben nose, a MP-8 and M drive but the big job is when I left Virginia a few months ago was I laid out the measurements to quarter the cab to make it wider and longer. All in pieces and probably never have it complete.
