It is, we burn condensed sawdust bricks in the winter and it often gets too hot in there, even on the coldest NC nights!

also looks like a right chore to drive in the winter since all the heaters and defrosters are removed....

Allison 2000, would you like to see the work order/receipt?

I could send receipts for batteries and starter as well.

Thanks

Good to hear it is a 3126 instead of C7. Allison 2000 is also a good tranny.what ids the horsepower rating on the 3126?
