  1. Smedley had a maroon peterbilt tri axle tractor. i saw it on 95 a couple of times. Maybee the Kw replaced it.
  2. I used to see Mizzy RD's on 95 for a while. Truck numbers in the 400's.
  3. I believe plainville had a Mack dealership for a short while.
  4. Seems that by looking at the internet news Oskosh and Volvo hav'nt heard about this yet. But I did see a new 2013 Mack B-75 on the way to work.
  5. Um Lets see. Volvo is tired of getting upstaged by Mack and they are selling Mack to lets see- John Deere/Cat/Navistar/Case? Oh I know Hostess Twinkies!
  6. LT the Dussenberg of trucks as they were known. A Mack official back in the 70's said they were the finest trucks on the west coast.
  7. Tewe's used to have yellow and black fendered Mack B tractors. Is TEWES STILL AROUND.
  8. BCR as I remember they were B-63"s with the turbo 205's. Sweet smooth sounding engines. Could have been B-613's. I am thinking they had about 5 or 6 of them.
  9. Not enough to keep Renault and Volvo out of the bloodline.
  10. At first I didn't like the looks of the RB but now its one of my favorite R's. Sure looks better than the Granite axle back ant eater.
  11. Speaking of Vinny how about a U prog update.
  12. T-800 and W-900's are the only good looking KW's IMHO. I think they are both being discontiued/replaced by newer models.
  13. Looks like the son of the B-63's Meyer ran out of Wheeling back in the 60's.
  14. Does Celli truck center still sell Macks or do they just work on them.
  15. That CL is sharp with the two tanks. Looks like a Canadian setup.
  16. 220. Good points! Not to mention the spill over effect to local and not local parts suppliers and sevice providers.
  17. How many of the Celli off springs are still involved in Celli truck center. It seems as though the Celi company was much bigger than I thought. Were they bigger than Palumbo. Thats funny that the B's were on the road longer than the R-700's. I'm guessing the R 600's were on the road until the late 90's
  18. Kscarbel does know some shi? though
  19. Along with Macks and A-Cars and Hendricksons there were a ton of those R-210's thru R-230's in the midwest. Cummins powered 190 and 220's.
  20. In the era of the 673, NH 220/250, 6-71 fleet in frames were generally 200,0000-250,000 miles and out of frames 400,000- 500,000 or sold.
  21. And still buying Macks I believe. I think I have seen shakers also.
  22. Up near Brandon Vermont there are lots of Mack tractors with dump trailers hauling feldspar or something similar. Mostly CH's and a few paccars. Different companies
