h67st Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Nice looking truck, but those tire pressure monitors look terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaican Bulldog Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I never saw a Mack in Brazil after many miles on the roads there. I aways wondered if they were ever sold there apart from being imported on the used market. Brazil has a very protectionist market for autos. Most that are sold there have to be manufactured there. The only American Truck I saw was an International which I think some were made for that market. Otherwise lots of domestic market Fords, Scania, Mercedes, and heavy VW trucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxidyne Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Exchange rate is about 3 BR Reals for a Dollar, so price is around $45k. Brazil was another missed opportunity for Mack, their import restrictions are a PITA but the market is so big you can't ignore it. Missed opportunities like that are how Mack became a pawn in Volvo's acquisitions instead of the worldwide brand leader Mack should have become.

Rob Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Kind of nice to see a truck with steel split rims still being run. So many go for the shiny stuff these days. Wonder how it is to get good 20" tires there? Most seem to be China, India, or Korea import garbage in this country.

Vladislav Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Nice looking RW. I doubt they will pick up the money asked. But being a rare beast there as said above it would worth some good $$ indeed.

Mack are so sought after for export to areas where new Macks were not even offered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
