Green Dash Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Any fleet could have a few outsiders in what appeared to have been an all Mack fleet so I think 99% should qualify. Overnite and APA Transport ran Mack's in both road and city operations.

bulldogboy Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 BSP Transportation is an air freight forwarder in New Hampshire. Back in the '80s they ran afleet of Mack "MS" straight trucks and "MS" tractors plus a couple of "U" model tractors. It isstill in business but I only see an IH straight truck around every so often. bulldogboy Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34729-all-mack-fleets-past/#findComment-233388 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ditchkus Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Queensway, Northeast Delivery, Gilchrist Trucking from Old Forge,Penna. was pretty much an all Mack Fleet mostly F-Models. I was leased to them in 1980'S with my own 1977 F-Model 300 5 speed 34,000 rears on Camelback. It had air assist steering which was an improvement over non power steering. You pretty much had to get it backed in first shot or would run air down. Joe D.

fxfymn Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 The Fire Department of New York was 100% Mack pumpers and tower ladders for a time in the seventies. The only truck maker that ever achieved that status with FDNY.Thanks to Bulldogboy for pointing out they used Seagrave ladders, not Macks.

Popular Post 57 bcr Posted February 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2014 LCL Transit,Green Bay,Wis. ran Macks for years.The reorganized LCL Bulk Transport,still runs Mack. There is a couple of their older R model pictures on Hank's,but I'm not even going to start that round of B.S.! However, recently departed Bill Bedell had taken a nice shot of an early FS/FL that could have been an O/O truck (they had several at one time) painted in their old colors.Enjoy ( OK, I lied!) 7 Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!
