storkmack Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 The IH's are older 9200's one is an 01' with an M11. The other is an 04' with a C12 that was puked when we got it. The guys running them, like them. We have a really good IH dealer, so parts have not been an issue. I like the aluminum cabs, but dislike the how the dashes but up. in the last week I have driven one of our Pete 567 with the X15 Cummins and Endurant trans and the KW T880 with X15 Cummins an 13 sp UltraShift. I should write a review. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/154/#findComment-426730 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmackattack Posted July 2, 2019 Author Share Posted July 2, 2019 I was line up at the stop light against a Boughton materials Mack today.

Lmackattack Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 I wonder if the Allison is better than the Mdrive as far as performance and reliability?
