  I remember the MK 3s sounded like tat back when they decelerate in the mid-late 90s. Now their gearboxes all pretty much worn out already. >.< To me, i love merc W3E the most when it retards. So pleasant to listen to.

  Maybe? Allison confuses itself coz it dosen't know when to change from gear 1 to 2. That is the case in UK.

  For those who don't know what all the gearboxes sounded like as mentioned above [including allison] , take a minute or so to watch these videos to compare..... Also , buses such as B10M , B10B , B7TL , Dennis Dart , Leyland Lynx , Leyland Olympian and more are features in these videos.......

  Thats an old series of Allison (possibly an AT-; larger buses use the VT-), with the new (ok not so new, they have been around since mid 1990s) B- and T- series, its a different type of sound. Go listen to newer American buses and you will know.
