Mack Trucks reintroduced its Anthem model this week as more capable and more maneuverable regional-haul tractor. 

Available in six different wheel bases, ranging from 16 feet to 19 feet, Anthem features a bumper-to-back-of-cab (BBC) length that is 12-inches shorter than Mack's long haul tractor Pioneer (113.5 inches versus 125.5 inches), and 4 inches shorter than the previous Anthem. 

Pioneer and Anthem feature many similar styling cues and upwards of 90% in parts and components commonality.
