The M9xx series has very little in common with the M35/44 series of trucks. The first are of a 1990's design, the later are based on a 1950's design (so called REO's, at least on this side of the Atlantic river).

See? Now, this is why I'm mixed up. On GL they call a 2.5 ton truck that has a Cummings Diesel, the in-cab tire inflation system, automatic x-mission, power steering, the latest style of front clip and the "super singles" an M35A3. So that's really an M9xx series?
