So glad that I was born and raised in PA because I'm in the heart of old Mack country and I still see R models and Superliners on the road and still working (not show princesses) ;).

Weyerhaeuser had several B model Macks with R cabs. They were purchased in 1965 all used for log trucks Snoqulamie had 5 or 6 of therm as did White River. and Pee-Ell. Looking back, they had to be at the exact time of the change over. They had the B model butterfly hood and the rounded fenders. I think they were labeled B 81s. I got to drive a R600 with a quadraplex annd a 14 yard gravel box on it. Probably the best truck I ever drove until I got my '69 KW 923. The R cab was probably the finest truck Mack ever made especially for someone who was over 5'9". The DM series was a real mistake. I drove a 72 DM 800 and went back to my old 66 R cab for the comfort and reliability.

Grew up not too far from Allentown, so Mack was the home team. I love 'em all , but when someone says Mack the R-Model is what I think of first. You could turn those Maxidynes up, bypass the puff limiter, and let 'er fly.

Dont bypass the reversing valve...on your injection pump remove air actuator add a washer or two done. You got the off idle power not too much smoke

So where’s the mention of Slim Dusty’s many many lines and indeed even songs about Mack Trucks. Mabey you should have done some real research.

Single stack Mack with a can on the back. Twin stick with Armstrong steering. But I miss my 97 DM tri axle Mack the most.

I'm no fan of Mack trucks but if I were to ever buy one it would be a R model. Can thank the movie Convoy for that.
