Parts of it was really good. I wondered if it had been posted before, I hadn't seen it but I haven't ventured too far from Odds and Ends lately. I drove a 300/5 speed F model for a couple of years and thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread 🤣 I was actually watching a video about the Titanic and it was in the related videos. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

davehummell Posted Thursday at 11:45 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:45 PM I spent quite a few days in F models and in R models I never liked the 5 speed it got the job done but I never would have bought a truck with that five speed in it 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76593-maxidyne-video/#findComment-594933 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted Friday at 12:51 PM Share Posted Friday at 12:51 PM Matlack, a tank hauler, had thousands of them, starting in the mid 60's.. The first I drove were 1970 models in Syracuse NY. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76593-maxidyne-video/#findComment-594948 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Jamerson Brothers here in Appomattox probably didn't have thousands of them. Maybe dozens at their peak? Herbert Jamerson was mostly all Mack in the early days and H.H. Moore ran mostly Internationals. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

BOBWhite Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Dang AI garbage. Need to make a video about the subject myself I guess, find a motor with a hole in the block and tear it down. Those are at least my favorite type of vid Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76593-maxidyne-video/#findComment-595225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
