Guess you like the new ones that are broke down all the time change the Mack part numbers to Volvo numbers to learn all over again you won't see these new ones go a million miles like those old ones the new ones are like everything else made nowadays designed to fail

I think that Volvo brought Mack to the 21'st century. They have invested millions in a aging engine factory, they offered Mack a new chassis, 3 new modern engines, one of the best tranny if not the best tranny in the world, lately 2 new suspensions, and who knows what else; The Mack sales are booming in Canada just because one thing: THE ENGINE LINEUP and the super M-DRIVE tranny (aka-I-SHIFT) You guys are funny.

They offered who? Mack Trucks?

No, Volvo purchased Mack in 2000 and began substituting Volvo global components (chassis, engine, transmission, suspension, ect.) in their Mack-branded trucks.

The Mack-branded truck is a Volvo with a legacy Mack cab and hood.

Please don't call that a Mack truck, out of respect for the former Mack Trucks.

I dont know about giving them the best tranny in the world. I think the 6 and 12 were awesome.

I think the market also makes its influence.

Because people run new Macks and new Volvos.

Many thanks again for the artical, too interesting to read.
