Mack Trucks To Highlight Granite, Pinnacle & Anthem Models At ExpoCam 2019
Mack Trucks recently revealed the models it’s bringing to this year’s ExpoCam, which runs April 11-13 at Place Bonaventure in Montreal, Quebec. The lineup includes two Mack Anthems, one Mack Granite, and one Mack Pinnacle, all of which feature 13-liter Mack MP8 engines and mDRIVE automated manual transmissions. One of the Anthem models, along with the Pinnacle and Granite, have the rugged variant of the mDRIVE AMT transmission.
All four 6x4 models on display at Mack’s booth 4259 also have the Mack ClearTech One exhaust after-treatment system, Mack GuardDog Connect integrated telematics, interior and exterior LED lighting, and premium seats co-developed by Mack and Sears Seating.
