Ain't nothing better than seeing a PA built truck doing the work it's supposed to in our home state. Greetings from SW PA.

Thanks for posting this video, great camera angle, been retired for awhile, sure brings back the memories, company got some in '88, mine was brand new, great work trucks, probably still working for someone out there.

Mack of the past was so awesome. They over built most of their stuff, and the R Model trucks seemed to be the most adaptable and capable in their class. I have seen these trucks punch well above their class rating. It is a shame Mack and the big US brands are all a shadow of what they used to be.

You nailed it, overbuilt they were, I’ve stared at the Bulldogs ass many a day, that ol 237 letting it all hang out.

Ugh, I certainly don't miss the tight roads and endless traffic in Delco! I grew up in South Jersey but my dad's family are from Delco (he grew up just off of route 1), and we would go up there to visit them almost every weekend when I was a kid. Traffic seems 10 times worse now in Delco than it was even 10-15 years ago - I hate driving through those areas with my F-250 but I couldn't imagine doing it with an R-model and lowboy. Great handling on those tight streets and a great sounding Mack too!

We had two R models in the early 80’s. Tough as nails. I trained several new drivers with them. They took a lickin’ and kept on tickin’. Indestructible and pulled like a freight train 🚂

This was sights and sounds of my childhood, hauling home heating oil with my dad in his 86 R in southwestern PA. Even the turn signal buzz took me back. Can definitely tell you're on roads in Pennsylvania, haha. Penn DOT scared of or doesn't know how to use a road milling machine to make the roads smooth. Ah enough negativity, great video! The R sounds very healthy.

Too bad Pennsylvania is such a state with flat roads. NOT! I've been thru some of those small towns and villages. Barely enough room to drive a car down some of those streets. You can't be in a hurry. Too many hazards to negotiate. Excellent Job!
