    Mack has a new ride. I thinks it looks pretty sharp. It's on Macks website, I haven't found a picture that I can download yet.

    A song of my people? Or a wailing and gashing from the depths of hell?

    This is JMHO, but I think that thing looks like crap, from it looking pieced together to the down side mirrors coming out of the top of the hood it's an ugly truck, I was expecting much more outta Mack.

    I have said over and over that Mack is great. Then.

    I worry that Mack is trying to be something they aint. I don't know if you can recall the then brand new CH day cabs and the sleeper versions about the same time. They were exactly what they needed to be and not a dollar more or less. Ive loved those things.

    I really had no issue with the way the Pinnacle "looked" for an over the road tractor, but it needed some SERIOUS help in the sleeper dept, way behind what other companies offer.

    I like it, minus the hood mirrors, but I don't care for them on any truck.

    The freightliner inspiration I think had mirriors driven by camera inside the cab itself. One of the early computer trucks had that.

    Frankly I recall handing over 20 dollars for west coast mirrior, bolt it on and go. Did everything in my time. Spending 3000 dollars for camera mirriors makes me sick....

    Trucks these days have so much better visibility out of them I just don't see any need for hood mirrors myself, but to each his own.

    From the release conference to the name itself it's just a big "we MURICA" circlejerk.
