kscarbel Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 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. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30209-your-mack-bulldog-line/page/2/#findComment-201852 Share on other sites More sharing options...

2stacksuperdog Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I dont know about giving them the best tranny in the world. I think the 6 and 12 were awesome.
