Doug Maney Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I've been seeing quite a few in the eastern part of PA. I saw a tri-axle dump getting off at Pine Grove the other day and I often see lowboy tractors on 81. Quote Interested in Old Trucks?

rhasler Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I posted some picture of one awhile back, I think that company owns at least 3 or 4. As far as I know they still don't have a factory sleeper option, the one in my picture had an aftermarket affair installed. On a side note, I hear the GU is supposed to be getting an HOS sleeper option in the future. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!"

mackbulldog64 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I seen O out in my travels.! I only seen 2 so far and those two were at Cook Bros in Binghamton sitting. I think the Titan is goona be a very scarce truck amoung trucks and only goona be a special order truck and not just a stock truck anymore. Any input on this?

BAD DOG Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 There are none on the road where I live. The Mack dealer in Windsor has had one out front since Christmas time. Not moving it too fast.

BAD DOG Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 If Trucking rates would go back up, fuel prices would go back to where they should be, the cost of the truck would come down to where it would be affordable to pay for, and if they would go back building a V8 engine again, I'd be the first one in line to buy a new one. But for now I think I'll just wish in one hand and S--T in the other and see which one gets full first.

granitefan713 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I think the Titans are out there, they are just illusive. Maybe 3P can tell us how many were built so far (if he hasn't already somewhere).Just as an example, a local trucking company bought a bunch of Visions in '06, as well as one Pinnacle (CXP613). Since it was new at the dealer, I think I've only seen it twice in those 5 years, and I see a bunch of their trucks daily.

We only sold 2 new trucks all of last year. We are having a much better year this year but no Titans planned to order.

Where was that 20 years ago. Anybody that drives one will want one. If we keep it in shop for p.m. Driver takes the day off does not want to drive his old 2000 C L .
