If someone didn't put a proper bus oil pan on it's engine, it was ripped off long ago.

So under capitalized they stuck a truck engine with deep sump into it...

In our global marketplace, another north American manufacturer would be nice.

Going to take a LOT of money

Happy coaching!

Cummins shipped the engine with a truck oil pan it was changed.The HVAC system was unique it ran from the engine while driving using DC current and on AC current when parked all from the same unit without a battery bank or inverters

That is clever, as long as it was dependable and cost efficient. I see why you liked it, but aesthetically, the design of the outside looked like a bizarre version of previous Eagles. The full width in the front would have increased wind resistance. The Model 10 and 15's were the highest development of the Eagle appearance, which accounts for much of it's appeal. Putting airbags on the Model 25 might have been a practical approach, but torsilastics were still used on Dina's at that time (I believe), so I think it was a big mistake to not use them. It was the signature feature of the Eagle.
