RE: [A/S] rivets



The Duramax engine, designed by Isuzu and manufactured by GM, is only half
the story behind GM's diesel setup.  The Allison 1000 series transmission
provides an excellent way to complete the power train.  It is the smoothest,
most feature packed automatic transmission I have ever driven.

The Allison/Duramax setup has almost twice the power and twice the mileage
of my 454CID Suburban.  And right now here in Southern Oregon, diesel is as
much as 30 cents a gallon cheaper than regular unleaded, $1.39 vs. $1.69.
