james j neiweem Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 You go T-Line. The 9800 and 9000 looks like it can be speced for a great lowboy/heavy haul truck. Might look good with a super dog grill on the front.

Yes I am thinking the same thing Not to have a go at T Line, but it's gunna be mighty hard to sell something that doesn't exist I would be interested in buying one, but not if they have never completed a truck yet Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-421055 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullheaded Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Yes. We saw the pics of an unfinished cab, and I do love the idea of an old school simple truck. But those pics showed components like the mirror arms and mounts that look kinda toy like and not like they will last in a vocational environment. If they got one built and got it out on a job for people to see they would have a better chance.

james j neiweem Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Searched the web could not find one example of a T-Line other than on the T-line web site.

Red Horse Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Can these guys build these new "Diamond Reos"?? I'm sure they can. Can they build them and make a profit? Sure -if enough people are willing to pay the price. My bet is there is no way that is going to happen. Maybe twenty years ago this might have been possible. But with today's regulatory bullshit and all kinds of compliance issues, I don't see how. "Economy of scale" is a buzzword we all hear about-and unfortunately I think it is a real factor. And by the way- Osterlund tried doing it twenty years ago right? And that didn't work. Hope I'm wrong.

Bullheaded Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Speaking of all the BS regulations Red Horse.......I have a couple small farm tractors and I have been seeing all kinds of adds recently for these brand new Russian tractors like Zetor and some other name that escapes me at the moment, selling new tractors in the USA and Canada with tier 3 engines and advertising no emission systems or electronics. How can they get away with that when all the domestics are forced to sell us junk? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-421275 Share on other sites More sharing options...
james j neiweem Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 May bee Donald Trump and Putin have a sidebar agreement on trade. Russia seems to be outside of the big international trade agreements with the US Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-421494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lmackattack Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 After looking at that new Autocar I would say Diamond T needs to step up their game if they want back in. That Autocar looks light years ahead of the DT. Wonder if they will step up? 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-422047 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetor isn't Russian, it's Czechoslovakian, different country all together They were always a very clean running motor in the 70's compared to most other brands They ran a lot cleaner than the US IH of the day and into the 80's and even the John Deere's so I feel they would have it well under control today Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-422084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to their Canadian sales rep. They do not meet emissions regulations. They have a set amount of units they can still sell with emission credits. Kinda like what all the engine manufacturers did in 2010. Those tractor are 2018 models that are still left over and that is the last batch that does not have DPF's. Now they have to have to conform to tier 4 like everyone else. They were allowed to sell so-many non-compliant engines and these are the last remaining stock. The ones I was looking at in the Marketbook were MTZ Belarus as well as Zetor. Anyway, I was just curious. I'm not interested in owning one. I have Kubota's and Allis Chalmers. And they are pre-emissions. It's bad enough I have to deal with that useless emissions crap on my big trucks, but I will NEVER have an automobile or tractor with a DPF on it. Not ever. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56821-t-line-announces-2019-conventional-custom-truck-product-lineup/#findComment-422092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
