Mack R model Moving Equipment 

I totally agree nothing like a R Model Mack Truck

Nah if have to disagree there my 79 w900 Kenworth and 08 Kenworth t408 have both done 3million kilometres without a rebuild or any major issues just a few tweaks here and there and could kick the r model Mack's ass all day long without breaking a sweat 😆

@@connornutsford4776 Cope harder, I see more R models in piss poor condition still doing every day loads and getting it done. Any old FuKenworthless I see are show trucks.

@@crazymixture57 King comment but both good, never see a KW daycab tractor. all are usually 790,000 dollars for no reason

You bet!

In my country, Venezuela, you can find Mack R model everywhere, still working daily from side to side of the country!

They keep going without complaining that’s for sure

Much appreciated. Glad to have you along.

Yeah always start crankin on em and say need to oil these binders up hahaha

It’s actually around an 87 r600. It does have a 300 with a 5 speed.

Yep

This is an R600… but I’ll have a vid of a R700 Dump waking up after a 10 + year sleep

They are great handling trucks

I think you will find that it's an R 700

@@chrismurnane6389 it’s a R600 with a 300 engine

Thank you yeah its a 5 speed, with a 300

Thank you. Check out some of the later videos. Less music

Oh yeah I shift like that a lot. Have to on hilly roads

We’ve got two komatsu dozers close in size that have 6 way blades. They are a late 90s or early 2000 model I’m not sure right off. Parts for the Allis Chalmers are almost nonexistent now. We’ve got a bone yard behind the shop though.

I believe it’s a 87. It’s got a 300 and 5 speed. Rides like a Cadillac compared to the DM I drive

@@AppalachianRust Definitely smoother ride I drove a dm 685sx tin nose 20,000 pound steer 65,000 rears on both and a dm 886sx I love them these Mack’s ain’t nothing like them at all they can keep all these new trucks along with the def egr computers all plastic trash

It’s a 5 speed. There is another R model with a 9 speed, but it needs some work.

I was going to say a 6 speed. But after watching I can see it's a 5 speed. Takes some patience to shift one of those transmissions after you come out another truck with a 10 or 13 speed. It has been a long time since I drove that R600 one stack Mack with the window out the back with the single stick 5. Nice vid and be safe out there.

The driver proof 5 spd, one of the first trucks I drove.

5 speed or a 6 spd mud stick

@@DoriClement-fe6tjBelieve me they are in no rush to shift those 5 speed gear boxes unless you bump the Jake then you can slide it in quicker that’s what I do a little harder with the Mack dynatard very sensitive will stall an engine quick with the dynatard

I hear ya. I’ll do a little of everything just testing the waters. Been running this stuff for years and decided I’d show the old stuff still working. Thanks for watching

​@@AppalachianRust😃👍

I’m glad you put the old Mack to work.

@@AppalachianRust yes, no music please. love the Mack sound. That's the music right there.

This was my first video with this truck. Check out the channel for later videos.
