A very quick business trip to the big smoke allowed for a few minutes of truck watching while going to and fro between meetings, meals and hotel. Most of what I saw was construction related (except for Part 2 which will follow in due course) and therefore pretty ordinary. Not so ordinary was this impressive Mack Titan running for Roni Excavating.
Chromed everything, including a back of cab roll bar/light frame, the truck was pulling a J.C.Trailers float, which loaded a digger arm while I was at lunch and the driver was just tying it down on my way back. Why aren't there more of these on the road!

The American Titan is basically a copy of an Australian model of the same name - where Mack in America spec the Titan with the 605hp MP10, we get Cummins ISX/Signature or Mack MP10 power with up to 685hp and a choice of Mack or Eaton transmissions... the 685hp MP10 is only available with the mDrive 12 speed AMT as the torque figure is too high for a manual
