Why The Titan Failed

At least Mack Australia still knows how to build trucks, to specs customers want.

Actually, Cummins power is not offered in the Super-Liner or Trident.

Only the Titan is available with Cummins power (and the compact Metro-Liner exclusively with the ISL, alike the Granite MHD).

Yes, but at least you can get a big sleeper on a Titan over there. That was one of the biggest things that killed it here. That and the price they wanted for a bare day cab.

My favorite quote from my long time Mack salesman friend when he got his first one in: "How in the F@&K do they expect me to sell these at this price!" LOL

Edit: At the time he said when they first came out, that was a day cab, cab and chassis tractor. It was the same price as what I was paying for fully equipped 4 axle dump trucks.
