Shouldn't even be thinking about a new truck, but what the Heh, I like the new Pete 384 with the High roof 70" sleeper option, etc. Available with ISM, but no C-9. I called Jon Mosier for kicks, and he says he will no longer build the 9500 with the C-9.
Cat is discontinuing the C-9. Jon said that it was never very good for fuel, but that may be cause he mated it to the Allison. I can't find anything with the ISL, except possibly the ugly T800 KW. At that point, one might as well get a C-11 or ISM in something. The 9500 now will only be available with the MBE 4000, which seems like overkill to me... Mosier says every manufacturer is matching up with partners, and Cat may be the one left out.
