keg1 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Our terminal got our first Anthem and I guess I get it. Had it two days now and still not sure if I want it or go back to my worn out International. I guess it's not the worst thing out there but I just don't get into all the new modern stuff. Get close to white or yellow line and beeper goes off get within a half mile of someone in front of you and beeper goes off. Don't put your seatbelt on beeper goes off. Doesn't run to bad Mp7 425 with M drive. All the trucks they bought this year are single axles. I wish Mack would have stuck with building R models and forgot this new stuff. Not sure why picture is upside down 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/54053-new-ride/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I lucked out on that. I wish they had aluminum wheels at least on the front. I saw one of Pitt Ohios with that bright red and alum wheels all around it was pretty sharp. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/54053-new-ride/#findComment-404352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lmackattack Posted August 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2018 I remember telling the accountant where I worked at that wanted to install some Driver tracking/recording device to get an insurance discount or something. I told him that I would cut the wires to the thing before it left the shop and then would call him middle of the night, on his home land line, to give him personal updates of my location,speed, and heading. He wised up. 3 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/54053-new-ride/#findComment-404360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
