Per RVBusiness.com, Allison Transmission Holding, Inc. saw net income drop in 2015 to $182.5 million a decrease of $46.3 million from the previous year.  Allison attributed the drop to decreased demand in the off-highway and defense markets.

Allison is projecting first quarter 2016 net sales to be lower than they were in the first and last quarter of 2015 and "will proactively implement initiatives to closely align costs and programs across our business with actual end market conditions and growth opportunities."

The only sector of Allison that saw growth in the fourth quarter of 2015 from the fourth quarter of 2014 was North America Hybrid-Propulsion Systems for Transit Buses which increased from $17 Million to $23 Million.  North America Off-Highway net sales decreased from $36 Million to $11 Million during the same period and Outside North America Off-Highway net sales dropped from $19 Million to $7 Million.

After the circuit breaker for my headlights popped a couple times while using the brights I wanted a better solution than just upping the rating of the breaker. I also wanted to reduce the instrument fluctuations due to the headlights amp draw, I put the brights on my fuel level goes down noticeably.

The headlight in my 93 coach is from an 89 Ford F150 pickup. It uses a 9004 halogen bulb. I found Lifetime LEDs online that claim to be DOT compliant for their 9004 LED conversion. Most LEDs do not mention compliance.

Their LED bulb consumes 22w versus 45w for the halogen on low beam. The LED produces 2000 lumens versus 750 for the halogen on low beam. On high beam it is 30w versus 65w and 2600 lumens versus 1200. So these lights put out a lot more light using about half the power. The one thing they don't do well is get a lot brighter on high beam, but they start out with plenty on low beam.

I only changed the outside two bulbs. I will see what I think as I use them. I don't plan to drive a lot at night, but when I do I'd really like the lights to stay on.

I should also say that the white light from these LEDs makes the old lights next to them look very yellow.

Detroit Diesel Series 60, Allison, 47' per VIN, 70,974 miles, center island bed.

The overflow tank is up to the full line with antifreeze, the hose looks to be in good shape but the cap is spewing excess when I filled the tank two days ago.  If I completely fill the tank up (I pushed a finger in so the cap had some room) should the cap allow antifreeze to escape once the tank heats up?  The unit is heating up over 200 degrees but we can smell antifreeze from where it is escaping from the cap.  Should I replace the cap?  Is this something I can get at NAPA?  Anyone got a part number please?

I have a gorgeous Newell three spots over from me at Bella Terra in Foley Alabama - i mean wow gorgeous ...
