    Is it possible to use these results to negotiate a better price? Sorry I have real estate background so a flaw can mean opportunity! LOL

    I was in no way trying to be a naysayers. I was curious. I love mack trucks even though Ive never been in one. I was just curious about the W9. Ive never even been in one, but assumed the dash and front half of the truck was similar to the T800.

    Hiding. Stop looking, and she'll sneak up on you!

    Kind of like cats - call them & they ignore you; ignore them & they'll be in your lap shortly.

    Just a word of caution on the deletes. If you ever have to take truck into a dealer for anything, they will hook up your truck to see if it meets EPA specs. If not, they will hold truck hostage and you have to pay to have truck brought back up to EPA specs before you get truck back. The EPA is really cracking down on people doing Mods . Even Pittsburg Power had to stop modifying the emission engines or get BIG fine and/or put out of business.

    I say 5 years the N.E will pass regulation requiring carb compliance.

    I took the W900 back today and looked at the 379 the guy got in the other day. It has potential, and I am interested in it. It has an N14 and a 15spd and a newer tripac apu. He hasn't had a chance to go over the truck yet but says it should be ready Tuesday. Guess I'll stick around till tthen and do that. I'm itching to go but patience may pay off. The APU would be nice and in the quick look I took everything seemed to be in good shape. Dyno will tell the real story though.
