vision386 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Yeah Ernie,seems everybody had MB's at one time! i'm pretty sure APA had about a thousand of them before going to the MR's which nobody liked! drivers hated them for some reason,i never got to drive one myself. the one i drove was the scania engine with a 5 speed Mack trans. only thing was no power steering,end of the day your arms would look like popeye! sometimes wish that hada worked out,hell i coulda been damn near retired by now! APA was a good gig,good pay,they treated their guys very well,my uncle started as a city driver,ended up terminal manager at the terminal on aramingo ave. in philly,he was there almost 50 years before he passed!............................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

41chevy Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Jamacia Ash still has a few and where we are Holab Recyling and Artic Fuel each have around 30 betwen them. They are the MR or MF's though. I think Holabs are LNG fueled also. Always liked them better than the Mid Liners too.
