Reece Johnston from Cranleigh Haulage, based in the wee village of Kaitangata, east of Balclutha, sent in this beautiful picture of the Mack MH613, which he drives for the company.

She’s a 1998 model and packs a 6-cylinder E7-454, producing – you guessed it – 454hp (339kW). Behind the power department is Mack’s own 18-speed manual transmission, with Mack diffs and Hendrickson suspension taking care of business out back.

Reece says she’s on about 2,600,000km.

How cool to be driving such a superb example of an MH Mack in 2021! May the old dog still have many more miles to go.
