B61SX on Ebay

not sure why you would do a beautiful restoration job and then sell it. and 94000 dollars is a just a bit to high -
i still cant believe this asshole obama got reelected. i think it was rigged
-
the guy that will drive it likes the cl he drives now so the gu813 is the closest thing to a new cl and he doesnt run a pup trailer so he wont need a titan .
-
WERE THINKING ABOUT ORDERING A NEW GU813 SETBACK GRANITE WITH A 505 AND M DRIVE IF ITS AVAILABLE .
-
also volvo vhd construction trucks have the i shift
-
i have seen 2013 granite series macks for sale on truckpaper with m drive. i was wondering if it is a misprint or if the m drive is now available in granites.
-
yeah with over weight permits we haul between 99k and 107k vermont and newyork with 6 axles . with 7 axles in newyork you can go 117k .
-
if the us government ever raises the legal load limit to 97000 pounds then i think the mp10 will have to be more mainstream in mack
-
i think the granite would sell for guys that like outside air cleaners. but yeah the pinnacle needs a extended hood version and mp10 and call it superliner but thatll never happen.
-
i have a new idea for mack to pick up some sales. i think they should offer the raised cab and growler intakes on the chu and granite models and call it the outback edition . it would be a option that would appeal to owner operators and elite fleets. what do you guys think ?
-
ours ran 30000 hours. it started to seep coolant into the oil and we tore it down and did a complete overhaul. all that was wrong was the one liner had some pitting . we have all 8 pistons and 7 liners for spares just incase. e9s are awesome engines .ignorant people dont like them .
-
awesome trucks. love the b model and the superliner even tough its a cat .. just joking. i wanted the v8 liner joseph had that was painted the same colors as that..
-
there must be a way to turn it up. being a e6 it must be mechanical im assuming ? u should be able to get more power just by turning up the pump.
-
thanks for the info and advice. the pricetags on the australian and nz trucks are really high. like 160k for a 2007 so i guess its a unlikely purchase. i was thinking of older because i could conver the steering wheel with a older model say late 90s because of the old ch and cl style interiors were universal i think. i know our cl have a cut out in the passenger side where the steering mechanism would go on foreign trucks. food for thought i think

i have seen several australian macks for sale on market book / truckpaper recently i wonder what the deal is on getting one over to america ? it would be bad ass to have a newer australian superliner or trident here in vermont .

Out and About

haha... yeah alot of loggers use and abuse. its weird that there was 2 dm 615 log trucks floating around. i wonder if the old white one i saw is still alive somewhere. the logger called it old smokie -
i saw on truck paper a 85 superliner magnum edition single axle with a generator of some swort mounted on it, i wonder if it is factory single axle or not ? its red and says magnum on the hood i never saw a red magnum. it only has 80k miles according to the add. the truck was located in penn

Out and About
41180 replied to leversole's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
was thaat dm 615 log truck that got scrapped white in color ? we hauled logs for a guy that had a dm with a 250 hp v8 that he used as a prehauler and to load trailers it was pretty well shot when i saw it. but i remember it had a v8 its the only dm 615 ive ever saw. at the time it was about 3 miles back in the woods in southern vermont mountains. the guy that owned it lived in maine, -
mack e9 is the best most reliable v8 heavy duty diesel engine ever. hands down no contest .. game over checkmate u get the point no 318 detroit can compare
-
i like white trucks, its a shame so many great truck builders are gone.
-
i wouldnt cali our mp 10 a gutless bucket of crap. our e9 had a complete overhaul and has about 3000 hours on it now so i dont think it needs to be rebuilt. the titan with the 555 mp 10 maxidyne has the most power of any truck ive ever seen. im not saying a turned up e9 wouldnt take it but i think it would have its hands full.
-
that gutted out superliner has the same rare mrroon silver and charcoal paint job as my dads truck. i always get excited when i see one of those, my dads was the first one they painted with that scheme. ive seen 3 others painted like his since 1989.

Trading 625HP Pete for a Mack!
41180 replied to MACKMADMAN's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
if it were me id just put a r model hood scoop (they make new ones made out of plastic ) , we have one on one of our CL and it looks great and put a moose bumper on it and itll look pretty mean
