j hancock Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 There was availability of an EM6 237 in 1985. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Dirtymilkman Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 We had a 237 in a 84 once. It'd pull 80,000 just as easy as the 300's. It was great for short runs.

mackey58 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 We had an 85 U-model my boss thought would be great. Had a straight 5-speed. Off road loaded heavy, I was screwed many times. Good road truck though pulling the tag with a combination on it or the Vermeer trencher when we did Ameritech work running all over northern Illinois.
