  I would say probably the most popular commercial chassis hands down It was made even better with the canopy cab addition when everyone was upfront.With the allison automatic transmission and the Cat 3208 diesel it became an excellent alternative to the custom chassis

  Sharp looking. Seems like every FD in America and Canada had at least one rig built on this chassis at one time or another.
