james j neiweem Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I believe suzio still runs R Model tractors with dump trailers (maybe 3 or 4). After retiring their DM 800's (#45) they bought a few pete tri axle dumps. I believe there newest tri axles are KW.

After retiring their DM 800's (#45) they bought a few pete tri axle dumps. I believe there newest tri axles are KW. Suzio only had two R- Models. The trailer that's hooked to that tractor in the pic weren't normally paired together. The other trailer next to it was its mate. The trailer hooked to the R- Model was the first aluminum tub they bought and was pulled by a DM. All the Pete's are pretty much gone with the exception of the one that empties the asphalt plant at the end of the day. Those R- Models had 300' s and 5 speed transmissions. Not my favorite trannie by any means. You need a low hole in construction applications, especially when your driveway sits on top of a hill and and traffic is coming. 2 Quote Mack and OshKosh enthusiest in central CT Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/11/#findComment-160182 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 2stacksuperdog Posted January 31, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2013 Some random shots. Old White Oak fuel rig and a few Beard Concrete MixersThe white B-61 at the end was the first mack with a lift-axle on it from the factory. It was featured at the world's fair in New York City in 1964. Beard ended up with it and broke the frame behind the cab. Agra Tucking of North Branford ended up with it and a bunch of other trucks. 3 Quote Matt Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/11/#findComment-160768 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a pair of green single axle B-67's at Macungie a few years back. I think Calvin Cochran (?) from Indiana had both of his B-61 sleeper cabs outfitted with different radiators.One had the larger alum tanked radiator & the other had the cast iron one,correct?
