davehummell Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I spent some time looking that truck over and it is pretty good. It has the mack walking beam instead of camelback. I just didn't want to spend that much on a truck, at the time I looked he wanted 30,000$ Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50892-this-a-members-b-model/#findComment-378616 Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarnall Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think the owner, Chap Hastings, posted on here at some point. He is a member of our local ATCA chapter. Mike.

fxfymn Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 While the asking price is no bargain you would be hard pressed to re-produce the truck at that money if it is as well done as the picture shows. You are probably buying at around 30 cents on the dollar or less, and that is right around what it should bring.

Besides, you get to see the back end of a lot of different vehicles when you drive one.

mowerman Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 ya i know what you mean.... i used to run a 185 no turbo,,,,and a 237 they both did alright as long as they didnt see any hills....bob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50892-this-a-members-b-model/#findComment-378696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Bobtailing that old motor will do just fine, as long as it's not gear bound in the back? Mine with 4.62 gears would run 65 mph all day on the governor. Ya, slow down on the hills with my trailer, but always got me there. Yes, my 237 makes it much better around here on the hills.

Maddog13407 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 looks like she has an 18 speed double over. you can see the bottom line of do not use 5th in low and low split so she must have some real slow meat grinders in the back to top out at 52mph Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50892-this-a-members-b-model/#findComment-378720 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobert62 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 That's about what mine did with 4.62 gears and a direct 10 speed Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50892-this-a-members-b-model/#findComment-378722 Share on other sites More sharing options...
james j neiweem Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Are Mack walking beams still offered. Can you still get Hendrickson on a Mack.
