Abstract: September 1970 marked the beginning of a new era in trucking. U was at this time that Detroit Diesel Allison Division of General Motors introduced the first of a new family of three heavy-duty automatic transmissions for the truck and bus markets- the AT-540, MT-600 and HT-700 series. Transmission configuration and general specifications are presented. The background leading up to the development of these new products is then described, and considerations of the various vocations in which they will be applied are discussed with specific emphasis on the requirements of the utility industry. This includes power takeoff requirements, vehicle performance and installation. Significant areas of verification of product compatibility are discussed. The basic concept of automatics has proven to be extremely beneficial for vehicles in the utility industry.
