james j neiweem Posted yesterday at 04:14 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:14 PM Better looking old or new Granite-IMHO old' Better looking old or new Anthem-IMHO old Better looking old Pinnacle (CHU) or new Keystone-IMHO Pinnacle Better looking Old Mayflower cab or Volvo cab-IMHO tossup The new Mack grills are not that appealing( look Cheap) That being said I guess the new Volvo cab interior exceeds the older Mayflower cab interior dimensions and layout. I guess these new models have to grow on you. Get rid of the new hideous bumper and go back to the old rectangular one with the bent ends.

The Heinz Posted yesterday at 04:45 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:45 PM I have been told the Volvo cabs are very comfortable and spacious, so there is a plus to the redesign. I haven't really been inside one to form my own opinion, only parroting what I've been told by my techs! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76493-new-mack-models/#findComment-593158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullheaded Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Volvo plusses......nice seats. That's all, LOL Volvo...ugly flat panel shapeless cab. Too much electronics and modules. Very limited amount of gauges visible at same time. No manual transmission offerings. I wouldn't touch one with YOUR money, LOL And those electric parking and trailer air supply valves? Hard no! Now you don't even get advanced warning of a problem or frozen air system because now you won't hear any air bypassing in your valves. Throw away junk. Now, you wanna see a real modern truck? Autocar. Dash and door panels all have exposed fasteners. And check out their diagnostic system. That is the only digital display on the dash. Not only gives you codes, but explains what they are in pain english. Then gives you diagrams and schematics of that system.
