storkmack Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 We had bought one of Five Star’s old mixers at Ritchie Bro’s down there. Made it back north about 40 miles and had to call it. Oil blowing out the blow by real bad. Can’t win them all.

storkmack Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) 87’ Valu-Liner, it was our first mixer. Sold it 2 years ago. In its tenure for us it delivered 17927.5 yards of concrete over 2744 loads. I just happen to be sitting at the batch computer waiting for trucks to get back Edited October 2, 2020 by storkmack 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57352-an-anthem-and-a-couple-gold-bulldogs/page/6/#findComment-461770 Share on other sites More sharing options...

james j neiweem Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Storkmack : May be I should say more granite tractors with Cummins engines Gicknordon: Looks like you found a good Mack spotting location.

storkmack Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Would a Cummins engine make the various wiring harness not garbage?

james j neiweem Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Stork Mack: Sounds like the wiring harness would be an issue although they did have a Cummins specific wiring harness for the MHD small Cummins.

Popular Post Bullheaded Posted October 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2020 A couple more different specs courtesy of Nortrux Mack in Alberta, Canada. Odd that anybody would want an Anthem dump truck. But like has been said, probably cheaper than a Granite. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57352-an-anthem-and-a-couple-gold-bulldogs/page/6/#findComment-462156 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some dump operators really run a lot of highways in the Northeast from what I hear, so fuel mileage is on their minds. I imagine that an Anthem dump may be a little more aerodynamic. What is the super-long tri-axle for?
