I drove one in the Army.

Lets see. . . What to watch out for. . . We always kept an eye out for the First Sergeant- you wanted to stay under his radar, if you could.

Back in the day, the "automatic" transmission (which I assume was an Allison) would have you in high gear at about 10 MPH, and luggin' away. 0 to 40 by about Tuesday. We always shifted them manually, with much better results.

Don't recall any specific problems with them- I don't think mine ever broke, and we put them in some hellaceous spots.
