Mighty Machines

In the City

Little Mac, a small municipal first-generation Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck, from the City of Toronto, shows viewers how the city streets are cleaned. The featured machines that do this include Dusty, an FMC Vanguard 3000 street sweeper who sweeps the roads, Vacuum Vic, a Navistar International S2500 vacuum truck who cleans out sewers, Gusher, a Ford CT8000 street sprinkler semi-truck who sprays water on the roads. Other machines doing work around the city include Stumper, a mobile chainsaw who obliterates stumps, and a Ford F-Series boom truck named Stretch with a shredder named Chipper, who trims trees. At the yard, Jaws, a Case W20C front-end loader picks up the street garbage to load into The Dump Truck Brothers to take to the dump. The main location is the public works city garage.
