In all fairness MAck would have to have a product to offer before others could kick them to the curb. Have fear the Anthem will save Mack 😁 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Titan was still available at the time of the test trucks being built. May have come down to chassis price. The Simard group did end up going with heavier chassis builds available from other manufacturers instead of the Granite.

gicknordon Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 They still make some with planetary axles and the simard front suspension. They are pretty much all south american exports though. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53622-super-granite/page/2/#findComment-401289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
