Breaker breaker truck 52, ready to drop my load. BEEP BEEP, back that truck up. Wait, you people on a coffee break, don't tell me I am going to have to wait out here for you all? OK then, I'll get paid to sit here, works for me. HEHE. I really love your truck, its beasty, yet beautiful at the same time. I like the setup on new semi's with the dual automatic/manual transmission. It handles the clutching for you, you just select the mode you want, and then hit the gas.
Good videos In you opinión which suspension is better air suspension, Spring suspension ,MRIDE Suspension or Camelback suspension which one please name two good one
I am thinking about getting a dump truck mack granite like yours I live in texas I like your video I am 65 and I am retired and still want to work in was in pipe line construction so I have been around trucks but I never did road construction is there some where I can get paving instruction before I do it and do some thing wrough
This m drive trans sounds like a bmw feature... lol coming out in the new m5 competition. Bmws is called M Drive where Mack is mDRIVE. Bmws is a feature for presetting the car into a default sport mode will all the settings you like changed in 1 button press
Thank you! I am not sure if I specifically have a video showing the controls but I’m sure there’s videos of me using the controls while I’m talking about something else but I would not be able to direct you to which video that is
Hi Dan, I'm about to get hired to drive an automatic Mack,what videos do you recommend? (The job is in a cooper mine,so the driving will be mostly over dirt) greetings from Mexico
@@dansvlogtrucking I had a 145,000 on a 83 RD 800 Mack with a 20’ bed getting paid by the ton you try and get every pound you can get. And when you haul in a certain place long enough you learn the DOT routine lol
@@dansvlogtrucking Some people might call that covid hair for a joke. I call it, Dan has more important things to worry about then the length of the hairs on his head lol.
Auto makes it easier then having to ride a clutch when milling but when doing asphalt, the paver pushes the truck along. We just ride the brake ever so slightly
Thanks man, I am just so darn busy right now. My side hustling is more like a full time job these days but with winter coming, things should slow down a bit
I have the 2021 quad axle black on blue mack with the M-drive. and i been driving it for 30k miles i do not like the way the trasmission shift i dont think i will get use to it.i will much rather have the allison....
Great content! Dan, any help with the “best” specs for a Georgia only truck? I’m in north Georgia, seems like a lot of people are running aluminum boxes? I’m guessing 20k fronts and 46k rears on a tandem, not sure on length or wheelbase
Get the lightest aluminum box you can find with a dinky fuel saver engine and run for SRM Concrete. Not sure how, but try to get on their list of haulers. 12 month a year steady work
i don't think my single axle pinnacle has drive mode and i really only hate the fact u have to push the brake in so far to engage drive, otherwise i love it.
If you think its slower then other trucks off road you are driving it wrong that is what you said in the early part of the video these Mack trucks with M.Transmission if driven properly will out work or out drive any truck out there off road.FACT
@@dansvlogtrucking That’s the reason they are nick name the big green machine - Georgia’s largest Road Builder. It shocked a lot of companies when they set up a plant and shop in Savannah. Great to see they are using you all!
@@mitaylor19631 The road crew we are hauling for is the best crew I’ve worked with to include the plant operator (Brandon) loading our trucks. First class operation for sure.
The company you are working for they are buying no frills trucks that are easy maintenance like your Mack has camel back rear springs. The trucks are not big horsepower so a driver won’t tear things up. The problem with the Allison 6spd is your constantly on the brake even with the engine brake on. The M drive is actual gears you will have more control. Yes it will be slower off the line as the transmission is shifting as a manual transmission should. When your at a stop light it will click to neutral where as with the Allison there isn’t really a neutral. With the Mdrive you should be able to manually downshift and use the Jake brake. The Allison has a nasty habit of clicking up to a higher gear going down steep hills giving you an oh shit moment. We have a western star bin truck with a DD13 with the 6spd Ally definitely has its drawbacks.

Beautiful truck.
My first job was driving a single axle dump for my dad’s company when I was in high school. That was one of my favorite jobs.
I really enjoy being a dump truck driver. Especially doing asphalt work and seeing the progress each time i come back with a new load

You won’t need special training. After just 1 load, you’ll be a pro. It is super easy and the paving crew will show you exactly what to do

Allison 6 speed Automatic
At 2:18 that is a 10,000 pounds lost between the two dump trucks.
Hi Dan, I'm about to get hired to drive an automatic Mack,what videos do you recommend?

You can haul 80,000 in Kentucky with a tandem and a 100,000 with the extended weight sticker and 126,000 with a tri axle dump trailer
Good info, thank you
