Mack Magnums in Australia
Hi there,
I have a question which hope someone out there can answer. Some years ago Renault and Mack developed the Magnum to operate in Australia. I saw the odd one in Australia, but to this day I can probably count on the fingers of one hand the number that I have seen there. What happened, why did they fail. Rgds/Mike (hilifta) |

G-CPTN,
The Mack Magnum had Signature power only, ranging from 565hp to 580hp in later versions! Joe |

Thanks for that link GC.
No wonder you don't see too many Mack maggies in Oz if they only made just over 100. I had no idea the number was so low. Hard to believe that a truck that is so successful in Europe could be such a failure in Oz. But as a guy said to me at Bathurst last year, you had to be a bit "gay" to like/drive a maggie. |

Overall, I was only impressed by the power of it. However, it did have a 440Hp engine, compared to the 320 in mine. |
