2stacksuperdog Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Saw a sharp red CL dump on 95 yesterday. The funny thing about it was that it said Dattco on the door with Dattco mud flaps.Is this the same as Dattco as the bus company. The logo looked the same. Also saw a new axle back Granite dump for Hanes.Good to see they are buying Macks again. They used to have CL's and RD's before buying T800's. Dattco Bus has their own construction division. Have a few Granite triaxles too 1 Quote Matt Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/68/#findComment-283166 Share on other sites More sharing options...

New KW's t800's (not bad looking). They still can't kill off there 2 old CH's I saw going down 95.(ex two tone green ones from another company I think) Also saw a CWPM black RD i have never seen before. They must be bringing out some old dogs.

james j neiweem Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Not a construction truck but I saw something interesting on I95 this morning. A NEMF pinnacle with a short flatbed trailer. It was hauling another pinnacle and a Mack LJ single axle tractor in NEMF maroon and gray. I wonder if they have any B's kicking around.I know they still have a few R's and U's.
