We looked at buying a Titan, but Mack wants way too much for them. International beat mack by 30,000 so we ordered our first non-mack truck the International Lonestar... 18 speed fuller, with the 600 Cummins

We wanted a Titan to make into a 6 axle dump trucks...but the Titan sits 13 inches higher than my 2 Granite 6 axle dumps...no way one would fit under a asphalt plant. Plus 30 grand is 30 grand

FALLOUT

Them titans are over priced. But it is one hell of a heavy spec. truck. Why didnt you just stick with the granites. A Granite is a nice truck for dump work. I really like them new GU model granite. I heat them new MP8 motors got some balls i think up to 485hp.
