Thumbs up Re: Future Truck build

I don't think it's an ugly truck. Different, but not ugly. Looks like a shark with the unusual grill opening.

Hey, I'd take it!

Hey travis you could go into the running for ugly rig of the year with that CAT model, I think this CAT could put you on the other end of that scale

You may think there ugly but I am the one who has to look at them every day. To me it looks a lot like a CH Mack. I guess the verdict is out and I will keep this build to my self.

Looks like a Volvo and Mack had a baby to me! That Aussie Cat looks more like an International.

The Aussie version look's much better with the, "Cow Exploder" on it!
Bet nobody makes a "Sharks Teeth" bugscreen yet.

Boy, this is a fickle group. First I’m told that the International Harley-Davidson is ugly and now it’s said that this Mack is ugly.

I’ve always liked diversity among my trucks. It’s the differences among the commonalities that make them beautiful. Like classic cars and women, it’s the curves and individual design that give them appeal to the eye. The paint schemes (similar to women’s make-up) help to enhance the underlying beauty that’s already there.

I just saw two Ct660 tri-axle chassis sitting in my companies yard waiting for dump bodies. They are different looking to say the least. They are tough looking! I'm looking forward to see your build!

Im liking the look of both.... The dump could use a bit of a pick me up but if anyone can pull off a build and make it look good, it's in the right hands.
