What's new and not so new

 I don't often get to the Burnside Industrial Park in Dartmouth, but when I do I like to swing by all the truck dealers to see what is on the lots.  Usually there is something of interest. Sometimes it is a new truck ready to deliver and sometimes it is an older truck in for service or resale.

Today (April 23) was a nice sunny day, and this is what I saw:

A new Mack Anthem ready for delivery to Municipal Contracting. It has some nice options including a serious headache rack.

Hansen's deliver high end autos in enclosed trailers, but also carry cars in the open. This Volvo was in the yard, maybe for servicing.

The Kenworth dealer had this "triple screw" T880 - surely a fairly rare beast - and worthy of two photos:


 

The Western Star dealer had this 4900 with a very serious bull bar:

 Speaking of W'Stars, and bull bars I spotted this twin steer, at the Navistar International dealer's lot:

To round off the trip, I also saw a rare International LoneStar, but not at the dealer's. It was at the Petro Pass fuel stop. It also had a serious critter filter, specially configured to protect the LoneStar.
