Damn it, got all gangsta up in hurr all of a sudden! with the Yo's and ####. Come bring that MP10 against my lil ole "550hp and 1850lb-ft" and i will show you my tail lights but only for a second...... Because i will be looooooooooooooooooooooooooong gone....... Just like that D16 ( oh which is a mack MP10 by the way) 625hp 2250lb-ft vulva couple weeks ago through new mexico.


Dont get all defensive dude, not like i put the damn thing down, even though i propably shouldve. But dont sit here and tell me that Mack has as many dealers out west as lets say Freightshaker, Peterbilt, Kewnorth, or even the Cornbinder, cuz im out here every week and im still at the point where my eyes work and i see things.

Well the loggers here in east Tx.used them for years and oil field.The old B and R models.I am guessing that less than 50 persent are Macks.Tou see just about every brand doing this.Most are Petes and KWs.Even loggers like riding in style now days.

Hehe we will have to agree to disagree.... Beware of the big CAT it growls and has huge claws..... My KW dont shake, but im sure that Mack has plenty of rattles inside.

LOL dieselhound!

As far as im concerned when the superliner died in the 80s and so did the old E9 V8, Mack has not put anything out worth a look from me.

The only thing I'm going to say is, the older Macks like the CH and the R models seemed to be built around the gearshift. There was NO leg room. I could never get comfortable in one. I couldn't even suffer through a couple of minutes. I know one has never kept up with me. I've slowed down to run with one or two Visions. Those guys seemed to like theirs OK.

Suck It Up Boys
WELL ONE THING IS FOR SURE NONE OF YOU GUYS KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT M-O-D-E-R-N MACK TRUCKS. FIRST LETS TAKE CARE OF ALL OF YOU OUT THERE WHO HAVE LARGE-CAR-IDUS. THAT BEING THE CLUB OF EXCLUSION OF ANYONE WHO DOESN'T WANT TO OWN A PETE-OF-TRASH OR A KEN-WORTH-LESS AND SO ON.
DO YOU KNOW WHY THEY MAKE THE CABS OF PETEOFTRASH'S AND KENWORTHLESS' SO NARROW??????? WELL I'LL TELL YAH. SO FA*S CAN HOLD HANDS AND SUCK FACE AND WHATEVER ELSE IT IS THAT THEY DO.
NOW ON TO THE SMALL MINDED OF YOU OUT THERE. I OPERATE A BUISNESS, NOT FOR LOOKS OR HOW FAST I CAN GET THERE , NO ON HOW MUCH MONEY I CAN MAKE AND MORE IMPORTANTLY ON HOW MUCH OF THE MONEY I MAKE GOES INTO THE BANK NOT IN THE TANK LIKE THE DINOSAURS YOU boys DRIVE .

Hey Mack I know the R models had bullet proof rears and drive shafts.I worked for a man that had a driver to twist one he carried it to get a new tube built.The guy ask him if it was a driveshaft out of a freight train.You had to realy try hard if you tore anything up in those trucks.Them little motors would pull off road and on.
