  2. OK all I thought I better add some pictures of these Kiwi R models that I was talking about the thing that I found unusual was that I always thought or should I say assumed that Kiwi Macks would have come from Mack Australia but having never seen any R models with bonnet scoops in Australia I thought I would ask the question which only Mick replied and not saying he is wrong but I cant imagine they would import into Kiwi land from the states when just across the ditch they make RHD Macks as big as you want and also I was under the impression from reading through posts here that only Aussie R models had the four headlights I could have all of this wrong and most likely have anyway hope you all enjoy the pictures ok these first two pictures are from the book "Heavy Haulage by Dales" top read that book I have read the print off it my type off book more pictures than words bottom picture stolen from the road ranger blog I put a link up else were the other day Trev the blog man says its ok to use any of his pics as long as we give him credit done deal interesting Blog thingo to look at

  25. Well all I know is if John Wayne was riding into town he wouldnt need 1000 people to hold his hand nor Jimmy Stewart or Elvis whats wrong with todays leaders are they really that scared of everyone perhaps if they didnt stuff everything up they wouldnt need there yes man or all there protection perhaps the leaders stuff ups can be measured by the amount of yes men and protection they need !!!! I dont no, I feel its gunna get a lot worse before it gets better Just a dumb Aussie think out allowed Paul
