Well guys we just got our first HO/48re dropped of today. I haven't tried it out yet because we are in the middle of a snowstorm and I wouldn't be able to get on it. Maybe tomorrow? If anybody is interested let me know. I have all ready offered it to Ton4Fun but if he doesn't want it it'll be available. ;D If anybody wants to see the window sticker they can see it at www.maczuk.net . Go to new inventory.

 

I don't want to buy it but certainly want a driving report, yesterday.

I guess you are not going to keep it?

Which one is it (MSRP) and how long did it take to deliver from ship/invoice date?

 

I looked at my site yesterday and it is the one without any prices on it? ??? ??? ???Lets see, it invoiced on the 15th and it hit yesterday. Maybe I'll drive it today?

 

Please drive it. We all want a report........

 

Isn't it the 3500 listed at $40,995?

 

REPORT! REPORT! REPORT! REPORT!

 

Luke. Did your come from Mexico or St Louis?<br><br><br>Ditto on the REPORT.

 

I believe it is a &quot;G&quot;, so it's a Saltillo truck .

 

They are telling me on the phone up to 21 days by rail. He got his in 8 days.

 

They obviously like him more.

 

I can see that. Maybe he got a special delivery because he is a dealer.

 

No I never even called the transport company on this one. It just got here that fast. We got a real good outfit haulin these things for us, they don't mess around. I thought you guys would like to know I went out and drove it. As far as the shift quality I thought I was driving a truck witha 47re instead of a 48re ??? :Sorry I know you guys didn't want to here that. The power was better than the old set-up. Not quite what I expected but it is 7degrees here for a high today and the truck only has 2 miles on it, so when it is properly warmed up and broken in I think it will be better.

 

Hey, that's OK, I loved the way the SO/47REs drove. I only decided on this set-up for supposed durability and a little more oomph for a measly $450cdn.

 

All I gotta say is that I hope it pulls better than my SO with a load. I like the way my SO gets around town when unloaded very peppy. <br><br>

 

I'll give you fella's another report when I get a chance to take it out and run it for ten miles or so when it warms up.
