mackdaddy Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 My son is on his way home with the latest addition to our working fleet.Picked it up at Mander's in MN this afternoon.Mikeis ol Sid Manders still around. Helluva guy!!! B-52 pilot shot down over Germany.........POW and escaped with the help of a German officer who attended the same university in the USA as Sid did. He said as they drove out of town he was laying on the floor board looking up and could see American aviators that had been captured hanging from the street lights.!!! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/18753-mike-jrs-new-ride/#findComment-76191 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop has a rawhide and now Mikey has a rawhide... hmmmmmmmmmm so is Mike Sr. the next one to get a rawhide?Think I'll be driving my old Superliner for a long time,yet.They are super nice trucks,though.This one was pretty hard to pass up.All Mack drivetrain,333k miles,super clean,APU,headache rack,2 big alum. storage boxes,Dura-brite wheels,and damned near new tires all around.Mikey is really,really happy with it.He pretty much lives in the truck now,so I wanted to find him a good one,hopefully this one will be it.

I am gonna try to get a peak at them next week...I'm afraid this one cut pretty deep,Terry.But as long Mikey keeps running as hard as he has been,we should do OK.

james j neiweem Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 IMHO The tricked out Pinnacle is the best looking truck on the road. Question can the grill with the large Mack letters still be purchased factory/aftermarket?
