Highly doubt this is an original NY truck based on those axles and pusher

That rig is better looking than most new trucks.

Cool! Even with the Transformers crap on it.

Here is one for the Jersey guys. 1980 DM812SX1041, Mack 300 Plus, with Mack gearbox (12) and Mack rears. Original owner was Blairstown Paving and Excavating. Purchased in 1989 by Cortese, sold in 1995, current location unknown.

My father spent a summer making Bulldogs for Mack at the Precision Castings plant in Fayetteville, NY, mid 70's I would believe. I believe there a few still kicking around the house.

Mmm, Autocar.

I like the way you think.

Alkane has been floating around for a number of years, with low fuel prices the appeal of these vehicles diminish greatly.

I can't remember where I saw this pic, maybe on this forum, but a Volvo VNL driver posted a shot of their electronic dispatch screen and a message from their company, it instructed them to pull the truck over immediately and wait for the wrecker. The problem? What you just read.

Truck show in March? Ooooh you southern folk!

I saw this one at the St. Lawrence Power & Equipment Museum.

Perfect!

Is this a B-model? The cab is throwing me off, show registration paperwork said it was.

Some video from the 2015 ATCA Northeastern PA truck show in Harford, PA. You'll see a B, R, LJ (maybe two?), MH, and two Brockways.

Pine State color look better on the Mack than the Volvo VNL's I see around my part of the world.

mmmm, sandwich

Had to shoot this one through the windshield, thought it had a nice heavy look about it.

Not a NY Mack but I took the photo and live in NY soooo, close enough. Middlesex Corporation of Orlando, Florida.

Current CEO Troy Clarke is pushing for possible merger or partnership with existing firms. Once again, VW enters as the most popular suitor. Ironic considering both companies have received a beating at the hands of non compliant emission engines. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-navistar-ceo-idUSKCN0W5025

If memory servers the Allis Chalmers OTR engine, "Big Al" found their way into one or two Powerliners.

If anyone made money on this venture it was Navistar. They let cat pay for a redesign of the cab and all the tooling that goes along with it, training of workers, installation of equipment, etc, etc. Now they can cherry pick the best parts for their HX line of trucks. Based on past decisions by International management I don't think was intentional but some times you walk into a good situation ass first.

Caterpillar Inc. says it will discontinue production of its Cat Truck on-highway vocational trucks, blaming "the current business climate in the truck industry" for its withdrawal from the market. “This is also in line with the company's ongoing restructuring to align its businesses with existing conditions,” the company said in a statement issued today. Those previously announced moves include personnel layoffs and cutbacks in production of its earth moving and material handling equipment. “As a result of this action, the company will cease taking new orders for vocational trucks, although Caterpillar remains committed to existing truck customers and will support the existing trucks currently on the road,” the company said. Caterpillar launched its first CT vocational truck in the North American market in 2011, working with Navistar on the product's design and build. It was based on the International PayStar and built under contract by Navistar, and now includes three variants. Last year, Caterpillar announced its intention to begin independently designing and manufacturing its on-road vocational truck products at a plant in Victoria, Texas. That was to phase in this year. Cat Trucks, designated CT, are premium products based on Navistar International's PayStar and use a Navistar-built 12.4-liter diesel. They are assembled at a Navistar plant in Saltillo, Mexico. CT sales volume remains low, annually totaling 1,100 to 1,200 units, a Navistar spokesman said last year. Navistar meanwhile introduced an upscale version of its PayStar vocational truck, called HX, which resembles and would have competed with the Cat Truck series. "Remaining a viable competitor in this market would require significant additional investment to develop and launch a complete portfolio of trucks, and upon an updated review, we determined there was not a sufficient market opportunity to justify the investment," said Ramin Younessi, vice president of Caterpillar's Industrial Power Systems Division. "We have not yet started truck production in Victoria, and this decision allows us to exit this business before the transition occurs." Canceling the CT program will impact approximately 70 positions, Cat said. The reductions will begin in March and will take place over a period of time. Truckinginfo.com You were pretty close on the wording Red Horse!

lol, You're not the first to say that. It could be a former MTA Bridge and Tunnel truck, repainted of course minus the wheels.

Dangerous, entire fleets have been lost to one truck catching fire. Could have been worse.
