Produced from 1940 to 1942, produced totally 365 copies. Externally identical to other E-series trucks, it was included to F range, as equipped with chain-driven rear wheels and F series heavy chassis Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55315-mack-er-photos/#findComment-413443 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to me like they were just built in different years. Probably differences in the chassis either but impossible to state without observations. I also had that question in my mind.

ER build from 1936 to 1941 359 units made. Main differences were heavier chassis , springs, steer axle and Military spec lifting eyes on chassis. Balance of the truck was E series. Originally spec'd out for the French.
