CCJ test drive: Refined workhorse: Mack's Granite blends power, performance and elegance

摘要

Driving a new fully-loaded Mack Granite dump truck near Allentown, Pa., I was reminded that there's something special about the rolling Pennsylvania backroads. I was following State Road 309, running south from West Hazelton toward Tamaqua. It's something like 350 years old - a pleasant reminder of how much transportation has changed. The old farmhouses are so close to the road that in many cases you could stand on the porch and spit on the traffic. Often, the house sits on one side of the road and the family barn on the other. It's something you see only in the eastern United States.
