Have you been over to the other CAD forum to read the TMC thread? Interesting to hear what the drivers had to say about the fuel mileage on their 387's compared to their 379's.

 

What do they have to say? I can honestly say that's one thread I haven't really ever taken the time to read.

 

I quit after the first 107 pages...LOL.

IIRC, the 387's were getting worse mileage than the 379's. They said they were heavier than the 379's. TMC trucks are governed quite low IIRC, so drag may be less of an issue. Also, as you know, TMC is a flat bed carrier, so there is less need for the "condo".

But the 379's must suck fuel because they have long hoods.

Actually, I have hood envy because we have a T600, T800, T660 & (2) T2000's , so all I need to complete the collection is a W9.....and a K100 Aerodyne.

Long live the hood.

 

Hey Rev. Do you think a MACK Vision is a junk aero truck??

 

To be honest, I have no idea what it looks like.

 

How do I get my sleeper on a 387?

 

Stretch the frame, and stick it on the back behind the factory sleeper!

 

Here are some pics. Now i know you know the truck lol:lol: If you do think they are junk i just want to know your reason thats all.

 

I honestly don't. I've only driven one Mack in my life (a whopping 180 miles or so), and I remember nothing about it.

 

I've heard about that "phenomenal", many times. Still find it hard to believe. Any scientific explanation?
Or it's a pure magics!
