Short hood Cascadia: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.1583981 ... 312!8i6656

This one is actually a 126 (long hood). An easy way to identify the 116 (short hood) is by the intake vent on the side of the hood like this one has:

@supersobes But doesn't the 126 have a slight angle on the back of the hood when compared to the 116 that is flat ?? Because i honestly can't see this angle on the one from the link i posted.

[supersobes]

That's only on the new generation Cascadia. On the old generation Cascadia like these are, there's no angle at the back of the hood on the 126. On the 126, the back of the hood is near the rear of the steer axle, and on the 116, the back of the hood is almost directly over the middle of the steer axle.

Ohh ok, thanks for the explanation. I thought the old gen Cascadia also had that curve on the back of the hood.

Seeing as the International LT recently came out for ATS, I'll share all the LTs I have in my library of trucks I saved from Google Maps. Regrettably, I don't have the links to them, but I do have the locations listed.

All the times that i went on google maps looking for trucks, i never saw a single Mack Anthem... I've seen 4900's, 5700's, Lonestar's but not one single Anthem. Are they that rare ??

[SirVirgoTheMess]

I guess it would be location dependant.I might have seen at least 4 or 5(not on Google,but in my city).Not rare,but not common either,at least in my area.

[supersobes]

While the Mack Anthem isn't as common as Freightliners and Volvos, they're not necessarily rare either. I see them all the time IRL, but most of them are day cabs. I have a couple of them in my Google Maps trucks library as well.
