[bbp666]

Thats one good looking truck. Hope you get one of these and enjoy it.

[heil702]

[MitchellM15]

Looking Gooood! Can't wait to see this one in action, you looking forward to driving one? Only a little baby truck (30yd) - what's the largest FL size you get over there, 40/42yd?Guess that "BACKING" sign on the bottom of the tailgate lights up in reverse? Thanks for the notification :D

[ThaThunderStorm]

thnx Mitch, it is a 40yd, McNeilus and Heil like to post the body size only, in this case 30, my truck is a 28yd, with a 12 yd hopper, this truck has a 10yd hopper

[MitchellM15]

Oh righty, to think what it would've looked like as a 30yd all up :D

[amrepmike33]

we have this

pete/volvo/white GMC/ and now LNG AUTOCARS!

and for the bodies we have amrep/ mcneilus/ wittke/ and a few old heils

[chillin626]

that is one nice looking truck. Allied Waste has several pete/McNeilus FL's here and they work very well. fast as hell. i think you should at least try out this truck T'! thanks for this. 5 stars

[ThaThunderStorm]

LMAO, after watching the Metro Pete in action twice, I love the way that they scream, and you're right they are fast! It's only a matter of time before I get mine, we'll see how she holds up to my abuse LOL

[packerblade]

seeing this now, you should let 15 go, haha...mcneilus fl's get the work done, and guess you'll have to wait and find out about pete's

[ThaThunderStorm]

yeah, McNeilus is a strong product, I'll just miss being able to double dump some of my cans that's all...

[Trashman242]

Oh the forks aren't as long on Mcneilus? That's weird...

[retardobull]

is that a new rl next to tha pete

[ThaThunderStorm]

nah its old

[retardobull]

how old

[gtpmike2000]

UMMM still have mixed feelings man shes a good loooking truck but like we said on the phone is she gonna look good going down the road on a hook ? and they already got the tires dirty WTF! naa just messing i like her good luck when you get one

[lahluv]

ooooo hooooo hoooo hoooo. awsome

[ThaThunderStorm]

LMAO!!

[Ferretguy55]

dude i would trade the mack in for a mcneilus any day!

[ThaThunderStorm]

McNeilus yeah, pete, iffy! bad history with them.

[mrstix2306]

you should trade your mack for one of those!

[ThaThunderStorm]

LOL, Pete's are notorious for electrical problems, but I look forward to driving one of these on my rte, just don't know where Kermit's going to sit, LOL

[trashratt]

LOL funny man, kermit the frog! You will enjoy the Pete, they are easier on the human body! You will be a lot less tired at the end of the day..trust me. The A/C is amazing!

[ThaThunderStorm]

I never knew why, but our older Pete's had no AC!! but you're right, the climb in and out is less tiresome than the MR, especially since I'm short LOL
