OUTLANDISH OUTLAW
“We wanted to enhance the truck.”
I was going to start this article by subtly mocking our relationships with salespeople, you know, making a few ‘slicker than an oil spill’ kind of affronts. It’s not that I believe those stereotypes, they are just fun to come up with. Subsequently, with the majority of the credit for the ‘mack-nificent’ Mack truck gracing the pages before you belonging to a New South Wales salesman … sorry salesperson, I’m still struggling with my political correctness. With this particular salesman being the brainchild of the Mack Outlaw trucks, I thought I could start my account by poking fun at salespeople.
Anyway, as I was saying I had intended to begin with some light-hearted roasting of the man behind the ‘Outlaw’ badged Mack Super-Liners. This is because the Mack you see on the pages here, along with three Macks preceding it and reportedly another six following it, are all the brainchild of a salesperson.
Normally as victims of countless salespeople encouraging me to get the ‘extended warranty’ I was very reluctant to do this story and risk finding myself complimenting a salesperson. That is not something we should be encouraging. I mean the generalisation is that salespeople are trying to extract every dollar out of us
