Well I wasn't on a date today but I was grossing over 60K with my tripple axle grain truck. Cat 3208 and an Allison 653 with a granny low of 8:1 I think. There is no better tranny for pulling out of a soft field. No burned clutches. Long run maintenance cost is a wash. My Dogde guru buddy knows of a CTD OD auto towing heavy for 300,000+ miles but he serviced it religiously. Others blow them up every 5o+ like clockwork. You are also correct as I have a right leg below knee amputation and they are so very easy to drive. That's just what I've seen from where I am.
