Mack trucking RS700L 285hp tipturbine. walking the dog. part 2 of 3

Taking the dog for a walk after replacing head gaskets. Truck builds 25 pounds of boost. She's old and a little tired, but can still turn heads

Now that is how to enjoy a classic ride. No big horsepower but it is reliable and tuff!

[@josephciabattoni]

Mack's were some good ole rides!🙂

[@Mrbbigrig]

Love the whine of a bad ass tip turbine

[@BonheurEsperer]

Nice video man I just subscribe to your channel. Do you think you could please see if you could do a three or four hour ASMR video of you driving this truck and include engine start up before departure and if you can hammer down on the Excelerator cause I love hearing that thanks man stay safe and have a blessed one.

Boy , for bobtail that looks like it rides smooth.

[@Maddogtrucking]

@rev.randall2292 yes sir. She rides pretty nice even with camelback springs under her. It wasn't always this nice though. I added a superliner cab air suspension, and it made a huge difference in ride quality. The old rubber mount cab was a bucking bronco.

I'd rather have a good R Model MACK like this, than all the hybrid MACK/Volvo crap trucks they make now...... just my opinion.

[@SOU6900]

Interesting place to put the turn signal indicator.

[@Maddogtrucking]

@SOU6900 that's the factory location on late 80s r models. I put a newer dash panel in with the turn signal indicator

Mach den Blinker aus!

[@kleetus92]

Why does the hood flex every time you change gears or add power?

[@Maddogtrucking]

@kleetus92 I think you arr seeing the air ride cab lean back from the acceleration forces. The hood rests on rollers so the cab can pivot just below the cowl. If you watch my walk around video it will show what in talking about

[@kleetus92]

@@Maddogtrucking Ah, ok that would explain it... I was 'pretty sure' you didn't have a cracked frame! lol!

[@Maddogtrucking]

@kleetus92 lol. No cracks in the frame! The camera was also mounted high up on the rear window so it probably cought more movement. But good eye!
