I looked in one and didn't see them. Could you tell me where exactly?

Would anyone be able to share the power and torque curves for the e6 and e7 350-460hp engines (US-Can)? I'm trying to educate myself about Mack engines and how they changed over time. I'm interested in the pre-egr era. Fuel consumption tables would also be a plus. Thanks in advance! P.S. I wouldn't say no to the earlier 237 and 315 curves...

Nice Star.

My understanding is that the AC's were e7's with EGR attached. What sorts of things went wrong with the 04's. Why were the 07's just okay? And how would they compare to a 2017+ mp8?

What about the ac 427's and 460's that came in the Vision until 2007? Or would it be better to find a Pinnacle with an MP8? (assume pre-emissions or deleting isn't an option.)

I've heard not good things about the e7 EGR ASET engines from 2003-07. Can they be made to run well WITHOUT deleting them? Is it worth buying a truck with one? (Assuming that there aren't any pre-'03's available.)

That grille was also used on r600's:

When did Mack introduce this style of grille? Did it completely replace the straight grille?

Really? Volvo makes 750hp loggers that haul 130,000+ lbs in the mountains of northern Scandinavia. How much do you pull with your sissy little American truck? 80,000? P.S. Dirtymilkman - it's not cool to insult women.

That 4-axle setup is popular in Ontario and Quebec. It's (usually) a 72" spread with the front axle steerable and liftable. It has to be 98-118" away from the triaxle. I like the old DM's you found! Most old Macks are from the 90's and have that set back grille.

"If Martin Penwald was real what would he drive today?" Probably a white aero truck.

Sure. But how expensive is it to start a truck manufacturing company dedicated solely to building gliders? I don't think there's money in it. Maybe someone like Autocar might take a swing at it, but I doubt it. Besides - aren't they limited to something like 300 gliders a year? That makes it prohibitively expensive to manufacture. I think what's more likely is the growth of refurbishing companies to rebuild old trucks.

What youtube video? link please.

They make bigger trucks for the Australian market because their gross weights are significantly heavier than the American 80,000 lbs. No matter how you cut it, 90% of the American market only needs a 13L engine in an aero package. That's what sells.

Nice! I love the logo. And yes, those are nicer than an Anthem both inside and out. P.S. But then again, I preferred the trimmings of the Pinnacle to the Anthem.
