The company previously ran 26 trucks, so the order was no small thing. It also marked one of the first significant orders for SCR-equipped Mack trucks in southern Ontario. The company chose Mack's SCR solution because of the promised fuel savings (5%), the support offered by local dealer B&C Truck Centre and the environmental benefits of running SCR...
