earthmover Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 That is a nice single axle. I didn't know you could get that truck in a single axle. Maybe it's a glider? Do you know the specs?

DD15 powered, 18 speed, 20 and 46 axles, air ride and S.P.I.F. automatic self equalizing steering lift axle. Loaded interior, maple leaf red leather.The other two are at my dealer.

Bullheaded Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 A lot of mine didn't have cab sheids either RFCDrum. I've only been on one job, (a big dig in the local steel mill) where they made us get out of the truck while loading if we didn't have one. I couldn't understand that either.......I would feel safer in the cab, than standing outside in a hardhat, lol.Thanks for the compliment.

2stacksuperdog Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 A friend of my dads has a Western Star triaxle. For what he payed for it he could have bought 2 macks and the things is at the dealer all the time getting the motor fixed. 1 Quote Matt Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30496-misc-trucks/page/9/#findComment-240317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullheaded Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 My Detroit has been bulletproof. But the truck did have a lot of little cosmetic build quality issues. Don't know if mine was built on a bad day, but never had flaws like that in the old ones. Nothing that affected it's performance....just annoyances for what it cost. Like grill bars that had no rivets, and lots of marks and scratches in the interior. Crappy, hard to service cab air filters, and it had the wrong engine fan and rad mounts installed. But the dealer and factory rep replaced those quick. But they weren't concerned about all the flaws in my interior. Maybe I'm too picky?Around here they are same price as a Mack.

41180 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 We had 2 stars one a 95 with with the small cab a 425 cat with an 8ll nice truck but the kitty cat blew up at 350k about 15k hrs . Our Mack e7 's of the same vintage ran 35 to 40 k hrs and 700k miles. The other star we had was a 01 with the constellation cab 475 cat with a 8ll . It was a good truck but the cab cracked by the door hinges and the cab air bags were a nightmare and the wiring in the dash sucked Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30496-misc-trucks/page/9/#findComment-240407 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chuck P Posted April 16, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 16, 2014 90 day haz-waste pickup at my job. They used the day-cab starcar a while back. This time they brought the sleeper cab. Most of the waste we generate is alcohol-based (flavors & fragrances) and is used as a fuel at incineration plants. 3 Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

fxfymn Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Rosenfeld Concrete out of Milford, MA ran quite a large fleet of Autocars, Macks, and chain drive Sterlings back in the day. He had chain drive Sterling mixers on the road into the seventies. Based on the stuck mixer and the GMC in the background I'd say this picture was from the seventies and they were still using the Sterling and the LJ.
