JCT-MO, I am looking forward to hearing what you learn and your impression about the 2816.
Galen it was nice meeting you today thanks for the info.
According to Galen, as I understand it the 2816 will be the same as the 2615 except for some paint differences and the addition of a turbocharger on the engine, and while the turbo may add some horsepower it is being used more for the Tier III compliance as the turbo should help burn off gases more completely. And in my very limited knowledge of turbos ( I have a Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel) that unless you are pushing a great deal of boost you may get a slight jump in HP but not much in Torque. I may end up being corrected on this but I think that is the general principle.
By the way if I can get my boat sold the boss says get the tractor so I believe that the 2816 is going to fit my needs near perfect. Now if I find a money treegrowing where the boat was parked I may go bigger!
Thanks again Galen and I hope to see you again soon.
