$14k for an Allison....that's definitely not happening. Reads like good results so far FTNoob, interested to see how it goes after some driving time.

According to everything I've read, the way to keep the vanes from clogging with soot and jamming is to drive it hard. Let the d-bag driving commence!

In my VGT dodge, I just used the exhaust brake excessively to keep the vanes moving, cheaper that way

Those of us in the north GA area are hopeful we might see Leonard at the Meet & Greet in February. It would be nice to put a face with the FTE name and of course seeing the truck in action would be a secondary benefit!
