  1. looks great, like the plymouth,
  2. its in the high 6 range, got in the mid 5s coming out off new england pulling a cf fire eng in that noreaster storm, high winds and about 4 inch of snow and stuck on the interstate for a couple hours, so i know its a good starting point for building some realy good fuel mpg numbers.
  3. the rw 255 the ch 230 but its a setback axle,
  4. the steerings different, i think it turns wider then the rw but i have to get used to the setback axle,
  5. thanks, i'll keep that in mind.
  6. big differance then the rw but i knew that was going to happen, the e7-400 isnt bad but the fuller 9spd sucks after 13 years with 18spd's. will change it to an 18 or 13 soon, the cab's wide but theres more leg room in the rw and i can reach the pass door. the ch is quiet i can hear my cell phone, the heater works well in the ch, its half the truck and its about 3500lbs lighter, im still trying to figure out all dash crap everythings marked with little pictures, what a mess, but it seems like a good truck.
  7. it looks like an Canadiain spec.
  8. ive seen this before, i think in binghamton ny
  9. i forget what year it was but this was the first mack, 300 5spd, ran paper rolls from leola PA to FL every week then cat litter back up to harrisburg PA 2 years on the east coast.
  10. welcome, your own authority, landstar, mercer, places like that, its hard work but keep your bills low and you can make it.
  11. hey theres that miserable sob of a truck, just kiding nice addition fleet,
  12. my wife and i went to Lows for garage door parts and yes the place was a mad house and the gas line at WAWA was for ever we had a good laugh and went home.
  13. welcome, with a mack unless you can stuff an E9 V8 in there "trust me you cant" the 12lit mack six is what you get, there are some after market things outthere but im not knowleged, but pepole here are,
  14. if it is the cam a elec. fuel pumps a good idea,
  15. i thought some one would know. thanks
  16. passing buy cabelas today and this was parked there thought id take a look, very nice, sorry about the crapy pics they do it no justice. should a got more info but had no time,
  17. you guys must realy laugh when we in the states say how hard it is to get parts.
  18. just incase i missed it, when its running have you put your finger on the suction side of the fuel pump it should suck your finger tight, ive seen cam lobes wiped out, on other gas eng. but i agree with everyone else, good luck
  19. just put it the wind
  20. looked on the floor for 5min trying to find the dimer switch, found it on the turn signals, dum place for it, messed around and theres some switch for blinding passing trucks on there also wtich made the the head light flash, so they had power, longer story short it was a relay. thanks for the help,
  21. well that says it all, went to leave tonight for my first trip with the ch and no head lights took switch out checked it made sure the plug was tight, checked bulbs, theres no relay in the fuse block behined the dash but it looks like there was never one there, tomarrow when its light out ill get out a volt meter and start checking power,

  23. jump over on old 22
