I bought these trucks twenty years ago when the gov was flooding the market. I’ve been very thankful for them. Mostly use the m915a1 6x4 trucks but when harvest is wet or snowy I dig out the 6x6 trucks. Ive hauled 1000 bushels in knee deep snow out of the field and left 12 inch ruts in the mud doing the same in rainy years. One thing about older military trucks is you are really part of whatever the weather is when you are driving one. If it’s wet you will probably get wet. I’d like to get a Mack for a tighter cab and doors and windows that close a little better.

This one is cat 3126 and Allison 7 speed.

This is what I have been using. 400hp big cam and either an Allison 5 speed or cat 7155 air shift.

I’m thinking about getting a vintage Mack for hauling corn because I love the way these old trucks look. It got me thinking about the criteria for getting a new truck and what the original purchaser was thinking when he choose one truck over the other. Why would someone choose a L cab B series truck over a LTL or vice versa. I really like both of these trucks and wondered what the individual selling points of each were
