decisions decisions ive got my truck search down to a acco 1950D with a VT190 auto (thats why im trying to find out a little about the VT donks)or another UD CPC14 6 speed ..as ill be doing a little interstate work i wonder how the VT190s perform esp with a auto behind it .. the UDs go well but they drink a bit of the go juice ..also the UD has 700.000ks on the clock the acco 170.000ks


Ditch the Cummins, Kenny - repower with a GM!

I'd like the 190 now, please, pretty please!

I dont think that ACCO will be any speed demon, the auto will slow it down. Are you talking about an 8 or 12 tonner ? .
If the price is right you can always repower the ACCO later on when the time comes.

the acco is a single axle 8 tonner ..i think the 1950Ds have a 12.5 gvm ?
i suppose the smart move for occaisional hiway work is a manual ..im heading down to melb next week in my UD CPB12 non turbo many of the hume hills will be done in 3rd gear)40km/h). . . ill be grossing about 16 tonne . . . now if the UD had a turbo ~ :D~ . . . funny thing is my old acco with a 358 turbo neuss wasnt any slower( & a full 40% cheaper on fuel !)
