[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1125414, member: 42554"] I like the Mack Pinnacle overall for driver comfort and general utility. Seems like Mack really got it right on this one. I think the mechanical issues have more to do with the DEF systems, like most Domestic car manufacturers had lots of issues getting emissions equipment right back in the 80's and 90's. It's nice driving something clean but I wish they wouldn't push unproven technology to the market so fast, let them get most of the bugs worked out first. Might be also that the Volvo motor needs to be revved out to produce enough power, and 2000 rpms probably wears on it. Not sure what happened to the benches in the latest Macks. Trade off for air ride I guess. Someone enterprising should design a bench that will bolt up to the seats or something quickly and sell it. Those Internationals were all sold with defective rear cab air bags/shocks it seems. Get your mechanic to order you a new one and it will ride 100% better. [/QUOTE]
