Not sure if yours is a 10 or 12 gear set up, but other than being a bit more sensitive to low speed back-and-forth maneuvering to camp I think it's a superior transmission, especially if you climb (and descend) a lot of hills. True, it's not as "fast" as an Alison, but better mileage (direct drive, no converter)...though neither attribute is really a Newell goal!

Just my two cents...
