Apparently the cannons at Ft Will and Aberdeen still have the Mack T9 with the cannon, supposedly 20 were built and were fielded in Europe and Korea during the cold war.

De-mil, scrap or a museum

Uh, wth? Why?

11,860#, contain 600# of steel belts $42500ea that's the good deal price for a full set. I could buy new tires and a new truck for what the tires cost.

13' tall on a 793/797, can't remember the weight, I remember they cost $40,000 ea.

I know they're not the real thing, but they are all the same scale and pretty accurate too so here's a Mack Granite, Cat 777 and Cat 793, big difference.

Obummer gets world class healthcare for free for life, and his salary and secret service protection,etc.

Sounds like ya got sum bad spark plugs!lol, sounds like too much fuel at start up, possibly low injector pop pressure, does it have a lot of fuel smoke cold or just on initial start up. I dunno would be interesting to figure out though.

3 per the MH registry, but I doubt they are all registered.

Ha, at least 2! lol, I don't have ay idea, is there an MH registry if so check it.

Wow, yeah that should be the switch but there are multiple reasons why it may not work, air pressure switch, clutch disengage switch, breaker, relay, solenoids, ecm function output, ecm function input, yeah cant figure that one out from here.

Ha, theyre both show trucks Ray, what are you talking about.

Looks like tha same old F750 hood with some extra stuff screwed on the front to make it look different to me, I don't see that its any longer, that's the std bumper and its in the std spot, I would guess that is more for underhood testing equipment or room for larger cooling until they get the new hood ready, that wont be how it looks for good.

That is a sharp truck, you guys are gonna have to get on MHE9 to bring his up there to Lititz, actually he has a Superliner and an Ultraliner to bring, and a detach to put one of em on for the ride there too.

The only people this crap will ever help is those that are unable to work or more likely unwilling to work, all of us that try to earn a living and pay our bills on our own without government help are just getting screwed. I was told by a union rep that since our insurance rates are locked until July1 2015 at that time we will more than likely see our rates double if not triple and our copays and out of pocket triple in an effort for the company and insurance agency to get some money back. I am just about fed up with the fed screwing the working man in an effort to sustain their voter base with handouts, it really makes me sick to my stomach every time I see someone using an EBT card now. As I recall America was founded as a country of people that wanted less government and were willing to work to earn their keep, those that were unwilling to work did without, those that were willing to do what needed to be done lived well, now those that will not have it easy and those that try to earn their living are finding it increasingly hard to maintain a decent level of financial stability, and are increasingly preyed upon by their govt for the funds they need to support those "will nots". I am not a racist, I am not against freedom of religion, freedom of speech or any of the other freedoms our once great country was built upon and I believe every man should be able to do what he wishes with what he has earned. However when I hear that a certain group, be it a religious group, other ethnicity, race,color or creed wants to threaten what I have worked for this far into my life by way of taking more from me to give to them or saying that they are owed something just because of their race,color, or religion I get freaking furious, when do I get to stand up and say "I'M DONE" I will not give any more for someone else to have what I work for given to them for free "GO GET A JOB OR STARVE", when can I actually get to keep more than 70% of what I earn? Ill end this rant now but I think Ive made my thoughts pretty damn clear and that is still protected by the freedoms our forefathers fought and died for!

Yeah those things are monsters, only thing CAT makes bigger is the 797 and I doubt a whole chassis could go by truck theyre so damn heavy. Im glad you don't mind paying with the big stuff, somebody has to do it, I think the rules and other b.s. keep most folks out of the real heavy stuff.

I haven't seen an old 988 in years, I think I was a kid the nly ones here in great numbers were the b-c's, that new CAT loader on the step deck is gonna cost the driver or company a lot of cash, hope he had is million dollar cargo insurance.

I thought it was mounted off the frame so water and debris would run out and not sit behind it, or so it was designed anyway.

68 of those LNG trucks are supposed to be heading to Nashville asap, STAXX just got trained for em.

160k on a 793?, did it have any tires on it? I thought they were on up in the weight closer to 250k empty. I would guess no bed just a chassis and no tires to get you to 160k.

I resemble that remark!

Hey Leslie those 15/16 nuts on the frame are actually metric 23mm I believe maybe 24 I cant remember, oh and theyre body bound bolts, or mine were anyway, tough suckers to get off, dont try to turn the bolt it will break stuff, you gotta turn the nut a little first.

I just talked to a guy today that put an N14 electronic engine in an old 359 pete, said he had to go to the elctronic speed sensor, electronic throttle and hook up the wires needed on the oem side of the harness per the N14 wiring diagram and it works like a champ, he even has cruise now.

Hmm, SWEEEEET KW, I love A models, and a well thought out b.s. cancelling disclaimer in the ad, I think I might call just to see if he'll take an out of state check for $5000 under asking price.

150k?, what are you scared to haul real load or something? I bet Ray can come give you hand if you need some help getting that up a hill! lol. Oh Ray I dropped those injectors off to get cleaned and ready to go in Im gonna try to get started on the exhaust soon, I actually have some spare time again after tomorrow, gotta get that turbo in here then I can slap it all together with some zip ties and chewing gum and hope for the best. I only made 24lbs of boost the other day hauling two old R models on a lowboy trailer up hill at about 75mph, I think the 84 pulled better than the 85, it had the 540hp euro turbo and 20% on the pump.
