[QUOTE="RoyalFlush, post: 732416, member: 27311"] Those were considered the latest and greatest thing when they were new. The were a substantial improvement, ergonomically and safety wise, over the cars they replaced. It's a 25 year old design. They are on the way out. We have lost/scraped a lot of them in the last two years. My understanding is that they will all be gone in a few years. Theres something wrong with the truck if it has to be in 2nd to pull a hill. Those things pull TP60s up hill at highway speed when they run correctly. The five speed does make them a better vehicle to drive. A little grease on the front end once in a while does wonders for the steering too. [/QUOTE]
