It didn't help GM having the 2-stroke Detroits outlawed. Figure GM was making money off of other brands using their engines as well as their trucks. Not so long ago they let Allison go, too. It's all about counting beans I guess. Basically GMC folded into White and White into Volvo and now it's Macks into Volvos. So far just engines, but who knows what's next? If anything, I'd rather see the Volvo name dropped and carry on as Macks...just because. It would somehow soften the fact that America is being eaten up by foreign money.

Haven't shown pictures in a long time because I lost track of what I showed, others showed, and this thread is so big I haven't had the time to look back.

Repeat? I dunno...screw it! Cool picture
