Round2 to release Mack B-61 semi kit.

[W-409]

I'm not even a truck builder, although I've built one in the past and have a couple more truck kits waiting to be built (actually, would be cool to build either one or both of them soon), but I'm really excited about this kit! When these hit the shelves I'll definitely be buying one.

You guys are causing me to remember the nightmares of my first job at Ford.  At the time E&L Transport was apparently in a state of chaos, as our poor dealers would call me every day asking where this or that car was.  I was supposed to call E&L, find out, and get back to them.  Sparing you the detail but it was a colossal mess.   This was the summer of 1978, the Ford car/truck business was still booming (the second oil embargo was about 12 months in the future), and it was a wonder I didn't lose my job right there.  WheW!   TB 

Fast Forward all these years later and a state of chaos with Ford (and later GM) took out Jack Cooper Transport which was the largest remaining union auto haulers a few months ago.

I'm not sure exactly what happened there; I have not yet heard a truly definitive and believable account of how and why it unraveled.  But as is so often the case in the business world, there are two sides to every story, and I am sure this is one of those cases....TB
