    Mack camelback is more gentle IMHO, although not by much.

    Someone at some point put a funky air bag setup on the beam suspension on Flash. I played around with it a little; anything over 10psi you'll come to a complete stop going uphill empty in gravel spinning the drives, stopping empty she'll lock the rears up just touching the whoa pedal, and I can't feel any difference empty on the county roads- still beats you to death, loaded who cares?. Can't figure out what the point was. Hold my beer, I've got an idea? The previous owner said one of his drivers cranked it up to like 60psi loaded and lifted the rear drives off the ground when he dumped. That'll be coming off when I get the time.

    My great uncle had a fleet of worn out R model daycabs. I know this all to well. Still twin sticks. 237 macks I think. He's 93-4 and will still give you a run for your money on opinion. Modern trucks are for girls. That means anything after the 60's. Absolutely love the man. Zero filter.

    I spent alot of my life young life around those men. I wish I grew up with them, looking back. I mean, I did grow up with them, just not same generation.
