MACK INTRODUCES GRANITE AXLE BACK
The new Mack Granite Axle Back has a set-back front axle to improve maneuverability and maximize payload. The model combines all the advantages of the axle-forward model, including a large cab, best-in-class visibility, ergonomically designed dash and advanced electronics. The exterior features flexible fender extensions, halogen headlamps, available stylized mirrors, and the Mack “M” grille. It also features the new Mack Cornerstone vocational chassis, available with a wide range of frame rail thicknesses and cross members that make it possible to configure the model as a tractor, mixer, dump, roll-off or rear loader.
