Mcrafty1 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hello all, As stated I'm the new kid on the block. I own a small earth work business in the great state of Maine and own an 1986 Mack RD685S that I use as my primary truck (its my only truck at the moment) and at my age(59yo) I hope to 'finish out" with it. Its a great piece of equipment which I've owned for a dozen years or so and built up to what I have now. Looking forward to reading about and hearing from thuroughbred Mack owners and all others about thier experiences over the years with these truck and will throw in my 2cts when I feel it will contribute to the mix. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39893-new-to-the-forum/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcrafty1 Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 Thanks Paul for getting the picture up for me, it is a nice truck and well suited for the earthwork business I have. A little slow in the highway (65 maxed out) but I don't even push it up to that most times, I'm a lot more relaxed than I was forty years ago and have learned a few things over the years....lol Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39893-new-to-the-forum/#findComment-289189 Share on other sites More sharing options...
