Thousands of Mack fans and followers voted online to choose the winning MackÒ trucks from among 171 submissions in seven separate categories. The winners will participate in a professional photo shoot set up by Mack. All entries and their photos can be viewed at contests.macktrucks.com.
“The response to this year’s contest was fantastic,” said David Galbraith, Mack Trucks vice president of brand and marketing. “We had six times the number of votes as we did in 2022 and the number of entries with dogs in support of our ASPCA sponsorship was heartwarming. Many of our dealers got involved as well by promoting their customers’ entries.”
Mack truck owners submitted photos of their trucks to the Mack Calendar Contest in seven categories: Mack Anthem®, Pinnacle™, Granite®, LR®, TerraPro™ and MD Series, plus an additional category for legacy Mack models that are no longer in production but still hard at work. This year entrants were able to earn bonus points for including their dog in their photo or video entry.
