blackdog2 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Those tucks cant get out of their own way. We test drove one. Topped out at 55 i thinkThe HI HO trucks were a lot better they had 350 12 speeds and 24 volt systems .O&G took a good hit when they took them . Terzian had one but the drive shaft kept coming out Edgewood cons, had two.

2stacksuperdog Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 The North Branford Tilcon has the soneco RDs running out of it and has a old KW with the series 40? (4 cylinder) detroit for cleaning out the plant. Up in the quarry they have 2 or 3 DMs running around that they use to pull the drills. 2 Quote Matt Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/51/#findComment-240692 Share on other sites More sharing options...
