Vladislav Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Looks like you worked too much that week so kept the camera up side down making the first shot.I agree with Tim, your R is one of my favorits from all others I've ever seen on the net.Wish you a long while before you feel a need to swap it with something newer.

mrsmackpaul Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 5.8 MPG pretty darn good I would have thought confirms what I have always said these new trucks are no better than a well maintained coolpowered Mack that has electronic problems I am like a stuck record arent I Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/41806-all-in-a-days-work/#findComment-304123 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmyb Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Take nothing away from these newer trucks, but it does show how fantastic the old Macks are! My dad ran an old '76 cab over kenny, with an 892 in it. He sold that truck in 95, and bought a '91 valueliner with an e7. The money he saved on maintenance and fuel paid for his Mack (4 years old at the time)! It was a free truck he kept telling me. Mack rules!
