Deborah Chesser How do women know of Detroits I grew up around trucks as my father was a truck driver. 8V71 is best sounding of them all in my opinion.
Great video. I'm 62. I ain't askard!!! Love those old trucks! Grew up watching them and started driving trucks when I was 20. Big trucks and trailers around 24 year's old. Yeah, I've heard that the only way you got a Detroit was a special ordered truck.
ballston ? truck show its next week i have to go! i love these old trucks driven many of them been going to ballston since 18 years old 47 now i still wont miss that show
DW lip yes I stuffed up but there is a yellow superliner single drive with an 8V92 never seen nothing like it.It's bizarre to have a 2 cycle in a Mack but they did it in Australia as well and not just the highway models.Although the Mack guys were very reluctant to fit a Detroit motor in the factory even though it was an option. In a factory in Brisbane they used to put covers over them so the diehard Mack customers couldn't see what engine was in it.
Mine was an R797.. with the Mack 375hp.. had the triple counter shaft 12speed , 5.32 diff, so changed that for a 4.1.. the 375 packed a sad, so repowered with the 18R.. much better toque and fuel economy .. had a 4inch stack on the muffler up behind the cab, the drone flippin started to piss me off.. so with a short reducer to 3 inch.. much better.. had artillery wheels, changed them to tubeless, loved it....
That is the second Mack I've seen with a "Jade Grenade". The first one I seen was when I worked as a Fuel Jockey at a Husky truck stop. A guy who owned a late 70's Mack Cruise Liner (Motrux Transport) used to come in for fuel. He ordered the truck from factory with a "Jade Grenade". I did not know this was special until one day the truck was at the pump and some trucker come up and said "WTF??? A Mack with a Detroit?" And the owner said "I ordered it with the Detroit". I've never forgotten that to this day.
@@mr7badass they are great when your batteries get low I know that for sure. With a mechanical motor and air start there’s no electronics involved at all, ya gotta love that.
When I was a kid my Dad had a cabover Mack, a 1970 I believe, with a 350 Cummins and a 13 speed. He previously had a 66 R model with the twin stick 10 speed. His first truck was a Ford gas burner with a 5x4. I think it was an FE style engine, maybe a 532 Cubic Inch. That was a long time ago. LOL
Engine will run backwards just as good as it runs forward. Get it in a bind and almost choke it out. She will catch back up running backwards. Seen it many times.
That’s a real Allentown R model Mack ! They didn’t ever get better than that ! It all went downhill with the Renault buy out and Macungie. Mack’s are absolutely nothing but rebranded Volvo Trash these days. Glad you found a real one !
I almost never post a negative comment so I will say that from a collectible standpoint it has value but as an owner of trucks for over 40 years including 2 stroke detroits and 237 and 300 R models this is a ridiculous combination. A 318 will never pull with a 300 maxi. Been there. So many positive comments about the old Detroit’s but I imagine if those folks had to gross 80,000 and drive thousands of miles through hills and mountains they wouldn’t feel the same way. I love the R models but with Mack components front to back.
I think TH-cam has created a following for the old Detroits. Ive talked to so many old school guys that cant stand them, or at least say they are not designed for road trucks. They are stationary, equipment or marine motors in my opinion. Not denying that milions of tons have been moved with them i just dont think they are best in on road apps.
Nick the Mack engines were about 200 ft/p more torque than the screamer and over a broader operating range an 8V71T would go better or even 6V92TA 350HP/ 950-990 FT/P
I kinda agree with ya. My dad's oilfield company had a Mack model R with a straight 6 Thermodyne and 6 speed 1980 model I believe. It was a pulling sob!! 80 mph with about 60,000.
Flip side 2005 mac/volvo vision unrelaible no speed demon doesn't want to pull Its on weight compared to 99 Mac no speed demon tons of torque all day very reliable that's been my experience
black truck looks like a brockway. So.... nothing moire American than driving a brockway, smoking a cig....... with a detroit under the hood..... with a mack on the back.
Never sure why the R-700 never sold well. They usually had Cummins or Detroit in them. Guys who had lots of Detroit powered equipment like cranes and draglines bought them because of the parts interchangeability. Lots less parts to keep in stock when stuff fits everything from a 2-71 in your light tower to a 16v71 in your 20 cubic yard shovel
I don't know which part of the Country you live in But the R7 sold as well as all the other Mack models and were sold mainly to Fleet corporations like say for example Mystic Bulk carrier's and Pro Van bulk haulers you could get them with just about ANY power plant you wanted and even the Mack Maxi-Dyne as well .. These are the very back bone of building America they were NEVER supposed to be the most Chromed or best riding longest hauling these were Regional Grunt if you needed a Bridge built Or Thruways system installed Mack was there..The closest they ever came to over the road I think was the Superliner at least back then ...
@@TheRoguelement I spent most of my life around Philly Pa. Lots and lots of R685ST and R686ST tractors around, All pure Mack specs. Lots of used Matlack and Chemical Leaman trucks around. I'd say about 90% of the Macks were almost pure Mack with the exception of some with Road Rangers in them. Now I'm up in the Anthracite Coal area, The R600s were real popular tractors here too. Mostly speced all Mack with TRXL107 transmissions. We have one here an 86 , 285 , 6 speed, 38 rears on Camelback 122,000 original miles. It's our shop truck. It's spent most of it's life indoors. We're 2nd owners. When we bought our building from an estate, we bought the truck from the same estate, So it's really spent it's whole life in the same garage
@@cindytepper8878 I lived near Philly until '81 when I graduated and remember all of the Matlack, Chemical Leaman, A. Duie PYle, AAA, etc. R600's. The R700's were popular back then in the west where the length laws weren't so restrictive, but you are correct that they weren't common on the east coast.
One reason is setting behind one all day long is brutal! If you have never done it. Man it's bad. No matter what mufflers you put on it or how tall the stacks are. It's bad because if you're moving she's screaming
That looks like an old Roadway Express line tractor. When Roadway dropped teams and went to a relay system in 1969 they converted to R model Macks with DD 8V71 power. They did however have a few Caterpillar powered Macks domiciled in Dallas. Our 10 speed Road Rangers would shift like butter with no clutch. This example is showing its age.
Well, the kid is doing it..... that's a lot more then you can say for the rest of his generation. I like the hell out of what he's doing as opposed to laying on a couch, eating Cheetos and playing video games.
G Black oh without a doubt trust me i know. Ive slid my fair share of equipment off the side of a lowboy. No one likes 2 strokes anymore its bad ass what this kids doing. Im saying is that hes young and has a lot to learn
The plastic toys exist today because of government regulations. With all the safety and emissions standards trucks are becoming subject to, manufacturers have to keep the trucks within a certain size and weight limit while packing more and more equipment like DPF and SCR systems, as well as the necessary parts for the safety features like lane keep assist and collision detection systems. All while maintaining a certain profit margin, and keeping the trucks within a price range owner ops and fleets alike have come to expect. In a modern sleep Freightliner Cascadia there are tens of miles worth of wiring and air lines in and around the entire truck, all of that needs to be serviceable too. Trust me the mechanics who have to repair these new trucks don't much care for it either but its the way the industry is heading. I give it 10 years before trucks with traction motors are on the road and hauling freight.
@@oddieboi That's the exact reason why I quit turning wrenches. The new trucks are a nightmare to work on. R model Macks are some of the cheapest and easiest trucks to work on. That's why thier are so many still in service. Almost every construction company in my area has at least one in thier fleet.
Bryan Dunn wouldn’t need lame assist or any of that if more drivers would pay attention and watch what they were doing and had respect like they did back when these trucks were new
Always great the hear an old truck scream going down the road. These newer trucks just don't have an authentic sound to them when they're on the road. Stay safe.
This takes me back. I drove an RL-700/Detroit/RTO-910 back in the mid-70s. I used to haul steel on a 40' flatbed out of U.S. Steel's plant in Fairless Hills, PA. The trans was so sloppy that it would change gears with a good slap of the shifter. Good times...
Dude she sounds sweet. Ill love to have one. Is it a 716v or a 928v. The mack i drove was a condo globeliner. Funny car hauler. 92 12v . by the way sweet brockway truck . old rigs rule
WOW! Now that was different! As most R model Macks had the inline 6 cylinder engine. However that is one mean sounding Detroit Diesel under that Macks hood! Hope he restores it!
Well done guys! If any truck should carry the adjective “sporty,” it’s certainly Brockway with this engine. And even his steering wheel is sporty 😎 Greetings from Croatia!
Very cool. I was looking at a 78 Mack R with the Mack V8 in it with a twin stick but the guy was asking too much. It needed lots of work. Love those old Detroits. Where are you guys located? I like going to truck shows in my area

Hey the guy with the Brockway and "Eager Beaver" float, just hauled a single axle Brockway from another utuber "Walter Gorzkowski". Minty cab ride. Love the sound!
That sure sounded like a 238 Detroit! Wind it up now! Those old trucks sure are cool! Do you guys own old F model Mack’s as well? Radical! Love the cabovers! 🤩
it was a 318 300 oil leaks and 18 Hp lol only kidding I grew up with those trucks.They only sounded Wound up because they were 2 cycle and usually turned 2150 RPMS or more.Good old days
The R-models I drove were all Mack, engine, transmission and rears. Good solid trucks, not pretty but reliable, if they could of put the fuel pedal about four inches forward would of been nice.
Back in the 1990's I drove an R700 winch truck with an 8V71 and 5and 4 Spicer transmissions in the West Texas oil field.It was quite an experience.
Great to see younger people appreciating older equipment
Old + mack + detroit diesel = america.
Yea. This is the stuff that makes me wish I was born 50 years earlier. Then again , going to Vietnam and all that was not so nice..

A great video! A classic Mack with a Detroit what a awesome combination! The old bulldog has one powerful bark!!
Only a true Mack bark with a Maxidyne. Let the Detroit's ruin the old Kenworths and Peterbilts.
Why put a jimmy in a mack?
Mack was notorious for low horsepower and high torque.
Although, after 32 years, the jimmy’s were the easiest shifting engines of all time.
Hey the guy with the Brockway and "Eager Beaver" float, just hauled a single axle Brockway from another utuber "Walter Gorzkowski". Minty cab ride. Love the sound!
Same guy. Same truck. Same day!
Another awesome video.
That sure sounded like a 238 Detroit! Wind it up now! Those old trucks sure are cool! Do you guys own old F model Mack’s as well? Radical! Love the cabovers! 🤩
it was a 318 300 oil leaks and 18 Hp lol only kidding I grew up with those trucks.They only sounded Wound up because they were 2 cycle and usually turned 2150 RPMS or more.Good old days
Howard Stern can drive the sh*t out of that truck!!
Top Truck!... Big MACK attack!!!!
EASY RIDER with the cigarette.. That jimmy sure does go well.
Is that an R773?
MichaelTJD60 yes
A v8 detroit mack. Something I've had never heard of 🤔
There were some built, not a lot though.
4:27 you even have jake brakes how cool !!!
The R-models I drove were all Mack, engine, transmission and rears. Good solid trucks, not pretty but reliable, if they could of put the fuel pedal about four inches forward would of been nice.
Don't remember too many with Detroits.
