  1. all great info!! and thanx read each post and some great funny posts (cough cough.. I have an Allison 6 sp 4500 now its "ok" mayby not tuned right as I always have to fight to hold it still applying 15 -20 lbs on brakes and have to stand on them to get them to stop loaded on steep downhills. The engina just "pulls" against it all the time. the new one I test drove felt more natural. The Cummins X15 and X 12 are new designs the x15 come in "performance" with black nuts and bolts and "economy" with silver nuts and bolts (and also has lots of problems and a couple recalls already but Performance is solid so far.... also considering a KW T880 whatever way, it will have an allison! the post about disc brakes has me SERIOUSLY reconsidering. same with the m8 motor. I f*cking love gauges!! more the better.. i USED to have 3 42" SCREENS IN MY OLD FREIGHTSHAKER research truck... see below..:) this is only one...
  2. Good day Gurus!, Brand new to the M-Universe. all I know about these are what the salesman has said and a week of internet "research" I had a couple of test drives and I really do love the cab noise level, the trannie, looks, power seems good, turning radius, small things I didn't care for: only 12 gauges, interior materials fit and finish, No LED head or tail lights (old school), one-way fitting keys Sooo, I wanted to get your thoughts on a future dump truck before I place the down payment $$$$$ options I "must get" or avoid?, warranties?, Quick version: 2019 Granite: MP8 505Hp, M-drive 14sp, M-ride, 4 or 5 axle, All disk brakes, "upgraded" interior, lockers, maybe nav. *also considering 2019 Kenworth T880, Cummins X15 (performance) 525 hp, 4 axle, Allison 6sp., all disk brakes (considerably more $$$$$) Coming from a Kenworth 2007 W900s, Cat C-13 380 hp 538k, Allison RDS+4500, 5 axle, 18 gauges!!, offering only $70k in trade:( this will be my only truck! so uptime is critical to making a living and truck payments. thanks!!
