Everybody knows a Bulldog when they see it. The Bulldog has for a while been the symbol of the Mack truck. During World War I the company earned its nickname when the UK central authority purchased the Mack AC model so as to supply troops, food and equipment to its infantrymen on the trenches. Those UK soldiers named the truck the Bulldog Mack because of the flat nosed hood which reminded them of the Brit mascot which was the English Bulldog. Since that time the Bulldog has been a trucking industry favourite.
