Underdog Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Nice truck, owner Jerry Kissinger just got an award from Shell for going 1 million miles without an overhaul. Not to be a wise guy, but why does a 20 year old truck only have 1 million miles on it? My WORKING truck has more miles in half the years. Mine would be shined up for the calendar too if I only had to work part-time.BTW, I wouldn't put Rotella in my lawn mower. 1.2 million on my Mack with Mobil DELVAC.

GearheadGrrrl Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Mack corporate should be sponsoring these truck customizers so we have more than one Mack truck entered. In the motorcycle biz, Polaris is sponsoring many of the Victory custom bikes you see in the shows and bike mags- they supply the bike gratis to the customizer and pay for accessories like the Motorvation sidecars too.
