    Well... I guess since they put out a press release...

    The CAT's outta the bag...

    Press release put out today...

    Allison is pissed... so I hear...

    What was announced are transmissions for vocational trucks...
    What's that??...
    Dump trucks...
    Concrete mixer trucks...
    Garbage trucks...
    That's what those first two models are for...

    I said "first"... and that's all I better say...

    Those two... A bit big... and heavy duty...
    Way overkill in a SD... I assure you...

    Would a possible future model be offered for 5.0L to 7.0L diesel engines?...

    I'm like you Ben... give me a handshaker any day...

    BUT...
    There are trucks bigger then ours that automatics are the norm in...
    School buses...
    Big Rv's...
    Vocational trucks... of all sizes...
    Fire trucks...
    Military vehicles...
    etc...etc...

    Semi trucks... nope... need on-highway fuel economy...
    crash boxes will always rule in them...

    Basicly... Allison was about the only choice...
    THAT is about to change...

    Do you think that had anything to do with the stock price jump today?
