What sort of brand are Mack? they seem to build tippers and binwagons these days, do they still do long distance tractor units? or are they the Foden of the U.S?

I know nothing about trucks, but I do love them - This is very cool, but I have to ask as I just don't know... What's the big drum thing next to the driver's side?
