umodelnut Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 In one of my local towns they are doing some road work and their dump trucks are all mid 70's DM's and R models. the company is CCI. The trucks are red with black boxes, and white lettering. I love them trucks cause when ever they hit the throttle, there is black smoke everywhere. I have to roll the window down when I see one, because im not kidding you they sound like a Mack Detroit mix. Its also cool to listen to the drivers double clutch. Sometime on a weekend ill have to go into the yard and get some pics. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24294-local-contruction-work/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyp Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Careful there young man, that kinda working noise and all is addictive! It ever gets in your blood, youll never get it out.

I HATE the heat. My stepdad is always bustin' on me cause I like Macks, he likes Petes, I dont know why, he says them CCI trucks are junk and they'd prolly give em' to me when they are done. I dont think that will happen. I still dont know how they make em' sound like that!!! Does anybody know how, or is it magic?

Forget trying to sleep we got rooms everynightI prolly couldnt live without A/C. If im drivin down the road in my Sidewinder, every vent is going to be open. Around here drivin' is ok.
