    i cant find much on them from drivers on here or you tube so just wanted to make a thread. based off the little i did came across its the best auto you can get.. my question would be how does it do against a 13spd or 18 spd manual from what i know it only (allison tranny) comes in a 10 spd for class 8 trucks and they have no intentions of making a 13 or 18 spd version in the future

    I looked into the heavy allisons a while ago, I think they're expensive and heavy, but no actual experience. I have a 3000 series behind a 300hp ISC in a tractor, runs great, easy to drive, backs up nicely (not like a AMT).
     
    Blkcowboy Thanks this.

    I know a lot of the Tri axel dumps run them around here. Guys seem to like them, & my mechanic raves about them. Best trans you buy he tells me. Lol. He also sold me my 13spd
