Mack R Series (v1.3)

[Scaild]

Just WOW! Can't wait to drive it This was my most favorite truck in the ATS and this is just another reason not to drive bigger trucks with longer nose...

Not trying to be a pest or anything like that ... but would really love to see a single axle chassis and/or tri axle for this truck added at some point in the future if possible. I've been wanting and hoping for those 2 chassis variants to be added at some point, ever since this truck first came out way back in 2018.

@Dieling Fantastic work on this, I finally can feel comfortable throwing a buzzin dozen or E9 under the hood. Also, one other detail you could add is the air cleaner for the tip turbine maxidyne. This one is distinguished by the two pipes coming from the air cleaner as many R700s had the old 11 liter despite the longer hood. A good example is the Mack driven by Rubber Duck in Convoy.

I did make a filter today, but not that one though,
what I made is a box shape one, when I saw this I feel it's so exotic that I must make one in game.
seems to appear on older trucks shows only, anyone has information about this kind?

Interesting. I have never seen such a filter.

Quite a lot of changes have been made to the model. Will it be a separate model or modification of R600? Are you really making R700 like a movie?

@Dieling why not do the scoops from Mad Max 2 ? I mean the Aussie style snorkels are similar but they're too high you just need the inlets and put them on the Air filters there're tons of reference pics on google images lol

@Dieling Unfortunately I don't really know anything about the square air filters besides you could also get them on Brockways.

@Dieling I worked at a mine that had a Mack R with one of those square filters. I think it was an ease of maintenance thing? We didn't really know for sure, but it was very easy to clean the elements and as far as we could tell, appeared stock.

I've been told that the box filters are originally made by Farr, anyway I'll leave it there as a good looking box, at least to me.
today, I have a new part to share.
