Never really thought a Mack looked like bulldog, until one day I saw my bulldog trotting up a hill and he looked just like a Mack truck crawling up that hill.
Great video. I reconized a few of those trucks myself. Don't know who owns the tri axle B80 Series Bulldog dump bucket but I like the looks of it. Looks like a great working truck or project truck to restore & work some too.
Daily Dose, you never miss a Mack trucks exhibition do you now? LOL!! I tell you what, if i was in the USA i would pretty much do the same thing. You see, we in the UK have good trucks also but nothing compared to that! Thank you for the video and keep up the good work mate!
Good evening. I love USA Trucks. The old models in particular are just great. In Switzerland, unfortunately, we don't sell MACK, Peterbilt and whatever they're called. In Australia also has many USA Truck. Search for Road Train!. Greetings from Switzerland, George.
On some of the old rigs, it seems that the cab was an afterthought. Hey Jim, can it pull heavy loads? Jim: Oh it can! It feels a little brezzy... Hmm. Oh, let's ad a cab and windshield to the final product!
ONE THING ABOUT A MACK, IF YOU TAKE CARE OF IT, IT WILL LAST FOREVER!! MACK TRUCKS ARE DEFINITELY BUILT TO TAKE ANYTHING YOU CAN THROW AT IT! WHATEVER YOU HOOK IT UP TO, IF IT CAN'T PULL IT, THAT MACK WILL BREAK IT IN HALF!!
Love the super liners I have a couple of them floating around doing grain hauling fire company has to Mac Pumpers 54 + 80 second truck I ever learn to drive F model 15 speed 2 stick
I am probably wrong but I didn't see any U model Macks....First truck I drove was a mid 70's U model with a 238 engine and 5 speed tandem axle I swore it was all tires short wheel base neck wrecking sob of a truck. lol
I drive a 98" RD tri-axle dump every day, still running in the dirt with these new KW's **)'s which seem to have become popular here.. There's a few other RD's running with us also.
How is that guy holding a conversation on a phone while all these diesels roaring pass him? He's probably repeating his order over and over again because the person on the other line can't hear anything.
The L cab and the R cab were good trucks, the B cabs while cools and popular were designed for midget drivers. Preferably under 5'6 as a 6' footer, they were uncomfortable. The DMs, Us and any cabover were junk, and miserable to drive. I spent many hours behind the wheel of all of them . Those were my favorites and those I despised.
Couldn't agree with you more....drove a 68 R model mack for RI Busse out of Chicago....the steel dash was great....then after he closed I drove a RD for a private broker....I'm about 6, all I did was hit my knees all the time, leg room sucked, every bump I would continue to bang the knees up
I need one so I can make these Chevy truck owners that act like their gay ass 1500 half ton is king of the road and better than any other truck ever built a lesson in what a real truck is.
I’m surprised no ones upset over a Detroit Diesel in a bulldog - that is not proper as a 350 or 400/427 bulldog diesel would not only be better because it’s making the truck homogenous again but also because it’s a TOUGHER AND MORE DURABLE ENGINE WITHOUT MASSIVE LEAKS GOOD THING- I want Oomph and Growl not A Cow Like Whine Oh incidentally at 2:19 a brockets which Mack owned briefly Until supposedly Brock got too big for his britches- bad move at a time when Mack bean counters were looking to trim the fat -brick claiming it’s trucks the most durable and toughest in the world Was not bright At all especially when it WAS and IS still, MACKS DOMAIN (unless I have missed something in the past 100+ years since their first truck - Which was actually a Sightseeing bus, named the manhattan rolled out in Brooklyn, NYC, their First home)
What says "big rig truck" more than an R-Model coming straight at you? I like most all big trucks...but when you see an R-Model...you know you're looking at a real truck.
