I drove trucks around Chicago for many years, mostly dump trailers. I only ever knew two guys who bought an R model for themselves to drive. Lot's of companies had all Mack R model fleets, but the guys ordering them didn't have to drive them. Even when the air conditioning was perfect they were hot in summer. In the rain water ran down the inside of the windshields. They were loud. Most of the ones I drove went 58MPH flat out. They road terribly, they seldom had air suspension. They were tough, with camelbacks they were almost impossible to get stuck, and were maneuverable.
I've been waiting for someone to put this video up. My family has been Mack for a long time. My great grandfather and grandfather worked at Mack as well as 2 of my uncles. My dad worked as the mechanic for a trucking company that had mostly Mack's. The hardwood floors in my house are from Mack when they made busses. Thanks for putting this together. 👍
