    The gold Bulldog, what does it mean? If you get it right, Santa will come to your house first.. Don't worry, if you don't know he will still come to your house....

    I've heard a few different meanings over the years. Originally I think it was for the maxidyne powered trucks. Then the later years it meant all Mack driveline. The 99 has the gold and all Mack driveline

    The gold bulldog means the truck is all mack. Engine, trans, rear ends, suspension etc.

    But they paint the Mack’s engine blocks red. That’s good for a few more HP.

    You know, the whole time I looked at that pooch's axxhole, by golly, I can't remember if it was gold or chrome,apparently, it WAS gold. It was a 1975 R600, 300 Maxidyne and 2 stick 6 speed so it must have been gold. Sorry for poor photo, pic of a pic, DANG, that truck rode rough!! I never knew that about Macks, I saw several Macks Detroit powered, but never noticed the bulldog color. IMG_0159.JPG
