My grain truck is a 1990 IH 8100 with a Cummins L10 and 7 speed. Tandem rear air ride, 18' aluminum box and I carry about 18 tons. The way I use it, it works good a majority of the time. There are times on the road I wish I had speeds in between the seven, but not a big deal.

The only time I can skip low is when empty.
