jaysm35a2 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Id still take the Mack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Tough choice at my age...never thought i'd say that. The Mack would probably be more fun for a longer period of time, but i'd like to at least take the other for a test drive. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Mike Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I'd ike to drive this oneHey hatcity, This one has too many curves. If ya go too fast ya might run off and tare up something. I'd stay with tha Mack cause at least it has some brakes you can apply. Tha Mack is bigger and will take lots more punishment. It also will still look good after 40 years with it. Should I say more?mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I would start crying if I had to ride that one on the left all day and would land in the hospital.

hatcity Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Be sure to check fluid levels. That first one may have blown a seal at least once.

vision386 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Be sure to check fluid levels. That first one may have blown a seal at least once.I agree,but while both work better with proper lubrication,only one operates better at a much higher temperature........and i got no idea how to close the shutters on the first one!
