Superdog Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 i stopped in springfeild and looked at that truck(had a delivery 2 blooks away)it is top shelf all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I stopped in to look it over tonite after he got home,the truck is very sharp,but I can't figure out why they put the cheapy 1/4 fenders on it.They will be coming off.He was pretty PO'd with the salesman at Springfield.It had been sitting on the lot quite awhile and needed shined up,so he asked if they could detail and polish the aluminum up a little."Sorry,we don't have anyone to do that".Quite obvious they have the Volvo attitude.Still,even a little dirty,it's a beautiful truck.

Rob Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 that's what happens when there are no other dealers for 250 miles, piss poor customer service.There have been three different places try to represent Mack trucks in the past few years in the Peoria, IL area. Not one has remained. Maybe if they tried to be a satellite from a different parent than the one all have used, it may have a different turnout.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
