    Looking at one of these anyone have any input on them? I am not sure how many are on the road. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    What are you looking for? A Mack Truck with an M6 or M8 engine? I have an Anthem with an M8 which is the same as the Volvo D13. Runs great, very good fuel mileage and plenty of power at 455 hp.

    IIRC it is a new model of Mac trailer that has a lower floor thus allowing for a full height cargo with a Conestoga installed. But yes the company doesn't have much information past the press release.

    It's a new design. Narrower neck gives you more inside height on a Conestoga around 104" clear. Also fully aluminum compared to some other low profile neck design from other manufacturers that use steel
