granitefan713 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I see Bolus from time to time in CT. Will keep an eye out for the light blue one. Should look pretty sharp with the red frame. Here's the odd ball, I like this shade of blue much better as a stand alone color, but I think the dark blue fits in nicer with the other colors.Iraq 30 ton wrecker.Wow! It seems the foreign countries are getting some cool stuff. Will that truck get the Mack emblem in the front?

bullhusk Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Saw the post that said all the trucks are made in Canada and Mexico, There is only one truck plant left in Canada Paccar in Quebec and it only buids class 7 and down. Navistar and FL hve moved to Mexico Last June when I drove the Mack Plant in PA, It was a nice summer day an some of the workers were outside having lunch on the Pic-Nic tables next to the plant. It took me back to the good old Mfg. days of Jersey! Heres some examples; Ford plants in Edison & Mahwah, GM plant in Linden, Gordens Gin, Linden, Hyatt Roller (GM) in Clark & Harrison, RCA Harrison, Crucible steel Harrison, Worthington Pump Harrison, Swift & CO. SO Kearny, Western-Electric (every telephone mfg. east of the Miss.) Coca Cola bottling So Kearny, Dupont Kearny, Pabst Blue Ribbon Nwk. GE NWK, Ballentine Beer Nwk. Kruger Beer Nwk. Mack Truck So Plainfield an Somervile, an the list goes on & on an that's just in the area I grew up in!! Were in the HELL did all of those jobs go?? So GOD BLESS Mack Truck in PA,an let's all keep buyin Macks!! And of course restore every Brockway that we can get our hands on!!....BULLHUSK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackdaddy Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Amen to that. it really is unbelievable how we have sold ourselves right down the crapper. Buy a Freighliner made in Mexico.............makes me sick thinking about it. All of the left wing commies in Portland, Oregon ran Freightliner out of Swan Island. And now the City gives money to a wind turbine company to build a new plant and office there. Wow!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firemack Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Mack 3P,Does Mack have any plans to offer a lighter duty Mack to fill in the void where Ford and Chevy/GMC left the mid class truck market?I would much rather have a Mack than an International or import. We are looking for a new middi pumper 4 door with 4 wheel drive around 38000-44000 GVW that would compete with the International 4400. Can we spec a light duty Granite? Our 1954 B75 is 33000 GVW and if it was available today would be the ticket with a 4 wheel drive and 4 door cab, which Mack made in that timeframe.ThanksFiremack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
