Build Year and miles on your chassis
Our 2003 Dolphin is on a Workhorse W22 with 8.1 Vortec/Allison 1000 five speed transmission. It has 79,000 miles, of which about 25,000 have been towing a 1999 Grand Cherokee. I am hoping for 70,000...

2004 Workhorse W22 Purchased new in Feb 2005. We have 62,000 miles on it. Had to replace Allison transmission at 43,000 miles after getting it hot when RV overheated in mountains. I had been putting water in the overflow bottle and not antifreeze while on a long trip. I think this may have caused the overheat. The 8.1 engine runs fine but did foul a plug wire when it over heated and replaced all of them.
We are very pleased with it and have had all the Workhorse recalls performed. We may keep it another 10 years.
