Dove four Diamond Reo 's two with 6-71 and one with a 335 Cummmins and one with a 318 pulling coal buckets , not a bad truck just hated the way the clutch pedal was in them and how it pushed down thru the floor and the cold air that would come up thru that hole in the winter along with engine smell year round . For all around local work pulling a bucket ya could not beat a Mack , plum loved the 1970 R 700 i drove , nobody like to drive that truck but me as it did not have power steering . It was powered by a 318 Detroit with a 13 speed Road Ranger and flat out ya could get 72-75 out of her , BUT man that truck would drag a load of coal up out of them old strip mines with them Armstrong drive tires i ran if you could get her to move and get into second gear she was coming out on her own , no D9 hooked to the ft. no 988 or 992 pushing on the rear she was coming up and out of that pit on her own with 35-45 ton in the wagon . trailer i pulled was a tri axle City Welding trailer with a 32 x96x72 box and the lead axle on the trailer was and air lift and when you had that axle up you could dump 20 to 30000 lbs more on the drives .
