In 2001, the allison was a big step up from the Ford and Dodge transmission options. However, when GM raised the bar IMHO it didn't take long for Dodge and Ford to come up with transmissions on par with the Allison.
Took Ford 5-10 years and ALLISON still has far better Quality Control.
Did you know Allisons are tested to beyond -40 on the cold end and over 120 on the hot end? (ambient temp) One of my friends help build and test one of the cold rooms used.
If they are so good with all the HP and TQ GM's have now why is the tow rating ONLY 23k???
I say because the Allison is at it's limits.
