Do you know what the displacement on the "engine" is?Not quite sure of the displacement as it is so new, it does however feature the "exaust re-generation" equipment (bucket) and appears to be water cooled....but figuering in hay intake divided by water intake/exaust, i make it to be .1 BHP, .2 with the optional off-road steel traction shoes installed, and using the manual power divider (tail) which can also be used as an on highway passing gear if needed.............Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

rhasler Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 but figuering in hay intake.............MarkThat makes it an alternate fuel vehicle, probably qualifies for all sorts of government assistance, tax breaks, etc. I found a couple of pictures of the new cabovers support vehicles too.Here's the dedicated tow vehicleand here's the dedicated refueler Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!"
