Not even a week old and she shows signs of wear. I did a quick walk-a-round of one of our new Mack Heil front loaders. I wish this truck was mine cuz the driver said it rides like a dream. Telma, back-up sensors, fancy exhuast system. The truck has it all except a toilet and fridge.

  • Very nice truck! I think the Allied paint scheme is the best out there and I hate to see it disappear. Have you had any Republic changes or do you know if the trucks will be re-painted?

  • The Allied paint scheme will stay. These are Republics new colors. Only the brand new trucks will have the Republic name on them. None of the older trucks will be renamed unless repainted

  • that truck is a gem to bad its doing trash and not cardboard might stay cleaner longer how many did you get total of the terrapro mack

  • I agree. All new trucks should start on cardboard but then that starts wars with other drivers that desirve a new truck. We were suppose to get four new trucks this year: 2 Terrapros and 2 LE's for resi. We got the 2 terrapros, the other is still being prep'ed for service, but now they say we are not getting the 2 LE's. Its a shame because 4 of our REL's are in bad shape

  • What is "telma"?

  • Its a frictionless braking system that is mounted to the driveshaft to slow the vehicle without using as much braking. Its basically a 500+ pound magnet that is electrified when you step on the brake slowing the driveshaft. Google telma to see there website and a more detailed explaination

  • oh geeze!

  • Thats good. AW had the best paint scheme of any company in my opinion. And the Republic colors are boring as hell.

  • Do I detect a route computer?

  • We just got a new Mack/McNeilus M/A yesterday (8-5) and it still has the AW on the side and the same colors but at the bottom of the side panel of the body it has the Republic star and it says " A Republic Services Company". So I guess we're staying with these colors wich is really good cause I hate the white and shit brown of Republic.

  • So Republic is still going to use the red, white, and blue paint scheme, but it will just have their logo on the side instead of AW on all the new trucks you get?

  • Oh, hope to see more vids soon also!

  • That is a very nice lookin rig, very nice.

    I've never heard of Telma before you mentioned it, that sounds brilliant.

  • r u goin to make more vids
