This is my 1988 Mack DM688S tandem dump truck i just bought. Has all original interior and original Roger's dump body(mint condition). Just put 8 new deep lugs on the rear(not in picture). It ain't built for speed, it's a beast! I call it the "Big Blue OX"!

beautiful truck!

I myself have an 89 rw713 superliner, and a 87 dm 686 before it.

I love the old macks, best truck ever built. Is your's a 237 motor or 300? Also what trans is in it?


I'm jealous!:drinkup
