Mack engine screensaver

Not sure if this is new or not but thought it was a cool screen saver. Look at the mack MP7 engine animated. Cool, but kind of large, 89 meg (if I pasted the link correctly)

Try working on a Freightliner!!!
I work at the Cleveland NC plant. I am a team leader there, at the end of the assembly line. I know its different than working on a truck that has thousands of miles on them but I see alot of stupid engineering designs and fixes. Ive yet to see a mechanic friendly truck.
